WOW. does it handle better? Pretty crazy looking

Ellis Stafford took his X6 to victory in the 2008 UK National Championship.

However we have to keep reminding people it's not a new concept to convert an RC10 to mid motor Tekin did it years ago

Welcome to the forum the man that can

That's crazy, I had no idea anyone offered those. Really neat stuff

[the man that can]

yes i guess its the age old exspression history repeating itself hehehe nice pics synergy and ummmm i guess most or nearly most has been done before when it comes to rc cars as with most things. all the various designs have plus and minus sides to them tho i think having the motor further forward on the b4 is definatly better. THO U STILL GET WHEELIES hehehehe specially with a 3 turn single brushless motor lol

AND THANK YOU FOR THE WELCOMING THANKS TO EVERY1 WHO WELCOMED ME AND WHO READ N RESPONDED TO MY THREAD OK

I want to get one. I have a spare B4 thats perfect for this, but i can't swallow the $180 price tag. Brian Kinwald drives for them, if that gives you an indication. http://www.2wdrc.com/2wdrc/index.htm

Welcome to the site! Always nice to have folks from across the pond join in.

The father and son that are X Factory were at our multi track summer series race today. Chazz and Young Chazz they go by, the son is Paul Sinclair, not sure of his father’s first name. Yep, Brian Kinwald is a big part of their development. He was at the same race 2 years ago, believe Glixar Jay posted some stuff about that appearance. Lots of Losi BK boxes signed that day!

Yes, some of their best results have been in England. Seems the X-6 mid engine car is a bigger advantage on high traction tracks, such as the Astroturf and such type surfaces that are frequently used to deal with the rain as I understand it.

Believe they started with the X-5 4 wheeler. Basically a hybrid of the Losi XX-4 and XXX-4, the rough track suspension of the XX-4, with the more efficient drivetrain and easier to wrench on XXX-4 as I understand it.

Then the X-6 mid engine 2 wheeler. A conversion for the AE B4, plus 2 wheel drive I guess gets you to 6. Yes, somewhat similar to the Tekin mid engine kit. Also the X has been discussed here on y2kgtp’s thread about his mid engine Losi truck, some of their development efforts. They’ve reversed the motor direction to attempt to overcome one of the weaknesses of a simpler conversion, lack of rear traction in low traction conditions.

It is legal for stock class racing, stock rules only limit the motor. Same chassis rules, unless it's a spec class like the Slash craze or the Tamiya series. At least in the US anyway.

What's the factory x-6 conversion?

It's the one that come between the x-5 and the x-7 conversion kit.

Only half way correct, X-5, X-6, but then X-5 squared and X-6 squared are the new versions.

Beats me how they come up with 36 Xs! It is The New Math I guess!

[the man that can]

hehehehe gosh lotsa responses and views here and interesting info too reguarding my post about my b4 with factory x-6 conversion NICE reading all the posts and does seem here is a good place to

[the man that can]

heres sumin i need to know fast lol WOULD a lrp sphere competition tc spec brushles esc run and be ok with my 3 turn brushless motor? was currently bidding on 1 on flebay.

Sphere Competition TC-Spec Specifications:
Modes: Brushless or Brushed
Throttle Profiles: Forward Only
Size: 33.1mm x 37.6mm x 32mm
Voltage Input: 4-6 cells (4.8-7.2V)
Motor limit, Brushless: Over 3 turns
Motor limit, Brushed: Over 4 turns
BEC: 5.5V/3.0A

APPARANTLY I FOUND SUMONE WHO IS RUNNING A 3.5 TURN brushless motor and it works fine. just wonderd as pointless in buying something if u know its gona get reckd and NOT up for the job in which u need it to be. ANY VIEWS apreciated (andi)

[Synergy]

To be safe I would read "over 3T" to mean a max limit of 3.5T.

Be aware that any LRP "LIFETIME GUARANTEE" is none transferable from the original owner, quite a few have been caught out with this.

[the man that can]

WELL I AM THE WINNING BIDDER SO FAR AND ITS ONLY AT £45 SO UMMMMM well if i can get it cheap il gamble and if it fry's then so what huh hehehehe. yes thanks 4 ur response i suppose its one of these does it or dont it scenarios i mean it may be fine with my 3 turn or it may just blow amediatly or after a few runs. well if i do end up gettin it il be sure to keep everyone posted on here to tell wether its ok or wether its blown lol.

[the man that can]

oh heres a picture of my b4 with factory x-6 conversion and also heres a picture of my xxxs too hope everyone likes

[vwjuice]

Is the rear end on your x-6 really narrow? Looks like it in the pic

[the man that can]

maybe by a few mm tho i dont think its loads narrower to be honest. dont have a standard b4 here so cant really compare it mate. MAYBE its just the angle of which i took the picture?

dont forget its sooooooooooo difrent with the motor not hanging off the back. also the spoiler is huge aswel and i think that make the rear look smaller and narrower then it really is.

[vwjuice]

Oh yeah that could be. It does look like a lot fun
