The Losi® 5IVE-T™ truck is a big, bad, massive truck that oozes adrenaline from the moment you open the box. Designed from the ground-up to have the performance of a highly trained athlete, the 5IVE-T delivers heart-pounding performance. But, much like that highly trained athlete, you should properly prepare your vehicle before it hits the ground and sends rooster tails of dirt in every direction. We've worked closely with the folks at Losi to help you get your 5IVE-T up and running properly from the first start to the one-hundred first.
In this video we will demonstrate:
1) The proper procedure for mixing 2-cycle oil and gasoline
2) Final pre-run checks for every time you use your Losi 5IVE-T
3) How to fuel your truck
4) Setting the choke, priming and initial starting tips
5) How to re-start the engine once its warmed up
6) How to tune the carburetor
7) How to perform a range check
In addition to these steps here, you can also check out our un-boxing and first initial setup tutorial we have put together on the Losi 5IVE-T. You can view that by visiting www.horizonhobb....

"and your gonna wanna go ahead" whew, he likes that saying lol
That looks awesome. But I can't handle the price. I love the sound. It sounds like a leaf blower! It would be so cool to have my neighbors come outside and wonder who is using a leaf blower in the middle of February in a foot of snow. But then they would see it's just their crazy neighbor with another rc truck
91 at the US... Europe 95 and 98
@Estara Compared to $15-to $20 a quart for Nitro it is considerably less expensive to run gas vs nitro.
@traxxasguy1777 The SR3300T is only compatible with radios with Spektrum DSM technology.
Great video!
@rsmelser Yes it can
To correct a lean bog at idle, am I supposed to richen the high speed needle or low speed? The video didn't specify which needle but I'm assuming it would be the low speed. Am I correct?
Horizon Hobby you are so lucky in the states with very cheap petrol in Australia we pay AU$ 1.40 for 1 liter
Is range checking good enough to prevent run aways? Would you recommend a kill switch? Or is it just a matter of preference?
can i use 97% octane or 95% octane
for the 5t
Great info Gary,hope you and yours had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year mate.
Always shake your can before fueling especially now with ethanol in your gas due to speration of oil and fuel .Also if your running ethanol use a lighter octane due to alcohol creates more heat and is bad about making the engine run hot .I worked on 2 cycles for 30 years and ethanol takes a diferent form of attack.
What sorts of problems are you having?
I love my 5t, but paying 1400 and the drives shafts did last long at all. Only thing I hate about it.
#1 Don't use a pump that has only 1 hose for 3 grades, the people before you most likely got regular, so you now have mid grade, and paid for premium. #2 First thing I did when I unboxed mine was used loctite on the two muffler screws.
can i use my fly sky gt3b??
super + 91 octain? we dont even got gas with that low octain in my country. lowest we got is 95.
my car is doing the lean bogging on takeoff, were you adjusting the high needle or the low needle ?
you need to adjust the low needle, your high needle only kicks in about half was throttle.
I was wondering if these methods would work with the losing dbxl as well
Yes, we used the same methods with both engines.
where can I buy the oil and how much do you need for a 5 gallon gas can?
please respond
My first tried is a fail, that's why I'm watching this video see what i did wrong
