16:10 RUN FOOTAGE STARTS
OMG it's happening, I got my first gas powered RC car! I started looking at the Losi 5ive-T a few months back and saw there was a 2.0 version coming out this fall and I decided to wait. It wasn't easy to do, but I am sure glad I did. This thing is beautiful. Being my first gas RC, I was glad to find that it wasn't too difficult to get it up and running. The Losi 5ive-T 2.0 runs a 32cc Zenoah motor that can push it 40+mph.

I bought AMSOIL Dominator race oil to make my own gas mix, but decided to use VP Racing Powermix for the first few runs. This video will unbox the beast, bind it, break it in and bash it.

Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks to Mike Dayton at the Richmond, VA Hobbytown for getting me an orange/yellow one and Joshua Williams for all his help figuring out everything I needed with it.
