Cleverly named F2, the unique design quickly raised some eyebrows and proved effective on the ground and in the air. Designed with aspects learned from the original Finnisher bodies, the F2 provides an even more aggressive look with included details which remain crucial to performance. The F2 body is a drop fit for the popular Losi Micro-B buggy.

With the evolution of racetracks, complicated circuits combining more aggressive jumps and extremely high-speed corners, JConcepts incorporated many features which provide several benefits in the most critical situations. Increased windshield angle provides a steady force upfront during mid-flight wind gusts on large jumps. Forward cab placement changes performance | visible bias which helps steering rotation in low traction corners.

The side-pods have been simplified and JC chamfered to remove unwanted changes in height to neutralize the at-speed handling. The front of the pods has a dual step, scoop treatment which gives a first in class look to the F2 body. The rear of the cab has the Finnisher step feature which allows the placement of a secondary side window and several louver options off the rear. In addition to the newly designed body, JConcepts has included a micro version of the carpet | turf | dirt rear wing which provides downforce in a variety of conditions on the racing circuit.

Note: body attaches to chassis using (not included) hook and loop tape for the same fit and finish as the stock body.

Features:

  • Original - JConcepts F2 design
  • Blended wing | body design
  • Includes a carpet | turf | dirt rear wing
  • Clear polycarbonate with protective film
  • Window masks and decal sheet
  • IFMAR World Championship winning design

What is the response when a popular new micro vehicle hits the market? It is simple, adding the most popular and best performing body to date to an already successful platform. Dubbed the S2, the new shell rocks some familiar features but rolled together with a low-profile stance. With IFMAR Championship credibility backing this design, it is an easy choice. The S2 for the Losi Micro-B is a performer straight out of the package, with the carpet | turf | dirt rear wing to help deliver results on any racing circuit.

Slammed overall height allows the S2 to whisk through the turns with a low center of mass while the progressive cab design provides plenty of front-end force for superior balance and steering. A channeled roof directs the flow through the center of the body while also increasing the rigidity of cockpit. The dual side-window design that has become famous on the JConcepts bodies remains to bring a traditional feel to the layout.

The upper side-pods feature distinct vents used to help relieve hot air build-up inside the body for those high-powered runs or hot days outside. Carved and detailed side-pods edge the body giving the highly aero unit a stylish look with a tight fit and finish. Cut-lines are included on the body to accommodate the Micro-B lay-down transmission layout to give all out versatility.

Roll with the IFMAR World Champion, the S2 by JConcepts.

Note: body attaches to chassis using (not included) hook and loop tape for the same fit and finish as the stock body.

Features:

  • JConcepts original Silencer 2 styling
  • Aggressive, progressive cab design
  • Channeled roof with center stabilizer
  • Useable side-pod vents
  • Includes a carpet | turf | dirt rear wing
  • Includes JConcepts decal sheet and window mask

A performance-oriented body shell design deserves an equally high performing wing. The carpet | turf | dirt rear wing for the 1:10th vehicles have taken the industry by storm. Since delivered to the racing public, this wing design is responsible for 100’s of 1st place racing performances.

For the Micro class vehicle, JConcepts took the time to produce a scaled down version of the original to feature with the body sets but also make available separately. After driving the Micro, the JConcepts team decided to add a little additional size to this wing to provide even more aero benefits over the stock component.

The team from Groveland, Florida added a longer chord to the wing, taller side-dams and a taller rear gurney for increased handling for a vehicle that can always use rear grip in a host of conditions. The wing is produced in-house at JConcepts and is manufactured in genuine polycarbonate material. 

Features:

  • JConcepts original carpet | turf | dirt design
  • Long chord, tall side-dams, increased stability
  • Produced by JConcepts, manufactured in polycarbonate material
  • Direct replacement, 1pc included per package
