Re: RPM ultra molded buggy body choices??
in the rpm instruction sheet, it says to use the losi pro se body. i'm waiting for brandon to start those up and get one for mine.
hoopty used a loxi xx-l body on his (iirc).

Re: RPM ultra molded buggy body choices??
Just FYI. Teamblue's body is not truely a Pro body. It's a Junior 2 body. That kit he has up for sale is what he used to make the body. There are a number of minor differences with the Pro, Pro SE, and the Junior 2 bodies. Not really a lot of differences to worry about or to be noticed by the untrained eye, but to the purist it's a different story. There are a number of purist here.

Re: RPM ultra molded buggy body choices??
Maybe look for any aftermarket bodies that were inteded to use with an XX. doesn't tower still have some?
Kyosho pro-x should work also I guess: redscampi used an xx on his pro-x.
Someone here used the old traxxas bandit body...Duratrax evader maybe?
since most 1/10 bodies are similar in size it's worth looking around and compare chassis shapes an tower locations; you can come up with something original for yours for sure.

well, the worlds rear tower was designed with the losi body in mind. that's why it's shaped the way it is, and has the incorporated body mount. if your using the standard buggy tower, you can run pretty much any of the associated bodies.

Re: RPM ultra molded buggy body choices??
so that makes sense now.. i noticed the protec and viper are too narrow up front to clear the brace, has any one tried to fit a worlds body??scr8p wrote:well, the worlds rear tower was designed with the losi body in mind. that's why it's shaped the way it is, and has the incorporated body mount. if your using the standard buggy tower, you can run pretty much any of the associated bodies.
so will the pro se losi body work with a stock tower?

i would think that the pro bodies would sit too high using a standard tower.
