Losi 5ive RTR with AVC
#LOS05002C

Push the envelope of large scale driving with the 1/5-scale Losi® 5IVE-T™ Off-Road RTR. This unbeatable package comes equipped to deliver the kind of unrivaled realism, performance, and reliability that only the 5IVE-T can deliver. With an AVC enabled 2.4 GHz receiver on board and the included Spektrum DX2E transmitter, you’ll be able to push the limit of a 29CC Losi petrol engine and 1/4-scale servos even from a distance. Best of all, finding somewhere to drive will rarely be a challenge thanks to a WD drivetrain based on the award winning 8IGHT platform.

Extra Large-Bore Shocks

These large-bore threaded, aluminium shocks feature over-sized 7mm shock shafts designed to stand up the punishment of 1/5-scale action. The threaded adjusters allow for fine-tuning while the extra high fluid volume allows for control over the roughest terrain.

Massive 5MM Aluminium Chassis

This is no ordinary chassis. It is based on the award winning, race-proven 8IGHT™ Platform. It has been designed to produce the best performance possible. The chassis plate is constructed of 5mm aircraft-grad aluminium and has been machined to save weight and add strength to provide extreme durability.

AVC Enhanced Receiver

With AVC included, you’ll be able to make the most of the Losi 29cc ci petrol engine. Using AVC, you’ll be able to maximize the precision and power of this behemoth truck and can even adjust AVC settings to match your preferred level of assistance and driving style.

Powerful Losi® 2-Stroke 26cc Petrol Engine

The engine comes preinstalled with a high-volume muffler and features an electronic ignition, easy adjust carburetor with a built-in choke and fuel primmer. An added bonus is the machined oval inserts that match the chassis cutouts precisely to locate the engine for proper gear mesh.

Innovative Clutch Mount and Housing

The finned aluminium clutch mount adds strength and durability and provides unmatched heat dissipation for increased longevity of the 8,000 RPM clutch. Since it is enclosed, it prevents dirt and debris from entering and fouling the parts. The oversized bearings handle greater loads and are more reliable.

Spektrum™ DX2E V3 Transmitter

The Spektrum™ DX2E V3 transmitter features extended range DSMR™ technology and superior comfort as well as AVC compatibility.

¼-Scale Heavy-Duty Throttle Servo

The throttle servo performs more than just throttle duties, it is also the main source for braking power. This heavy-duty large-scale servo has the power to bring the 5IVE-T to a stop thanks to the functionality of the bias adjustable dual-disk brakes. No 1/10-scale throttle servos here.

Multi-Piece Bedlock Off-Road Wheels

These monster wheels are true beadlock wheels with rings on both the inner and outer bead of the tire. With the amount of power the 5IVE-T produces and the sheer size of these tyres, these wheels will provide a stable platform for the all-terrain tyres. Many popular 1/5-scale tyres will mount right on these beadlock wheels.

4WD Power Train with All Metal Gears

The 5IVE-T uses nothing but precision cut or formed, heat treated steel gears throughout the drive train. No plastic gears. These are the strongest and most durable type of gears available and expensive option items on other models.

Full Roll Cage Modeled After Full-Scale Trucks

The realistic cage provides added durability to the assembly absorbing impacts as well as a solid base for the modular body. The unique design allows the body and cage to be removed with only four screws and four body clips in seconds.

Four-piece body

The four-piece body individual panels to be replaced in the event that it becomes damaged so an entire body does not need to be purchased to get the vehicle back to the factory look. Clear panels and stickers are sold separately to create your own look or retain the factory schemes.
