Losi 1/10th Roller

So I read the manual and I have a few questions:
1. Is this an assembled roller or a kit? The manual indicates that it is a kit, which I prefer..
2. The manual says that a pinion gear is not included. But does not indicate the pitch, at least I couldn't find it. What is the pinion pitch?
3. I'm new to all this and don't know much about drive ratio's. I have a 35t brushed motor I plan to use in this rig with a 3s lipo. What would be a good pinion to start with with this set up?
As far as branding, the manual says "TEAM LOSI RACING", not that it really matters.

1. It is assembled ready for your electrics.
2. 48 pitch like everything else. You can put a 12 to 28 tooth pinion on this to really fine tune your needs.
3. Start with a 16 or 17 and go up for more wheel speed if needed.

Thanks!"thumbsup"
you guys are probably right it doesnt matter....if you are into it and liek what you see. Somtimes I get disapointed when its just repackaged goods say for instance a sportworks relabeld a losi. But this is the real deal and im more excited now!!!

After reading the manual, I decided yesterday to preorder from my LHS. It will be my first crawler and would much appreciate info on competitive esc/brushless combo.
What is the advantage of the 21.5T/3S lipo over the 17.5T/2S lipo using the same gear ratio?

Tekin 55T okay?
Hi. I'm planning on running the tekin 55T since I have it alreay. Since speed isn't a issue for me, would this be a good motor to run on the losi crawler?

The 21.5/3S combo seemed to have a little more low end torque, and a little better top speed vs. the other systems on 2S.
I just missed out on another 1st at SDRCRC's Lake Wohlford competition on Saturday. I finished with a -21, good for 2nd place 8) I ran the very slick course #2 in a drizzling, misty rain. The comp claws hooked up great, and I finished the course with a score of 3 points, better then most guys scored in dry conditions :twisted: Pics coming soon...

Will these axles be available with standard dog bones in the front instead of CVD's? I heard the CVD's failed on the Losi's at the ECC and also a transmission. I heard the transmission failure was a fluke and had already been corrected in the production models. How much weight are the Losi test drivers running in the front bead locks?

From what i read the cvd only failed after some serious abuse so i wont be worrying about them if they break just learn when to stop pullint the throttle when its in a jam.
is it May yet??????????????????????

Yea another post on this thread said there were like 40 packs ran through that crawler before the CVD went, I don't think I could go 40 packs without busting anything. Plus you would loose quite a bit of steering, not worth the sacrifice IMHO.
I disagree guys about the CVD's. The ONLY brand CVD's I have ever experienced to have superior quality and strength are the Thunder Tech CVD's for the Clod. The Axial CVD's break regularly, and so do the TLT CVD's. GateKeeper runs his Axial with stock Axial dog bone shafts and so do a few guys in my local club. The stock Axial dog bones are plenty strong and allow you to run a lot of weight on the wheels, something you can't do with CVD's and expect long life.
IMO, since the Losi has front and rear dig, I would sacrifice a little turning radius for something that might be much stronger and allow me to run heavy beadlocks (something in the 14oz or slightly heavier range). Every terrain is different, but in East Texas, we crawl a lot of man made obstacles and the heavier weight is needed to perform well.
