![Elcon models FOURTEX 4WD](javascript:showProduct({"id":12131,"picture":null,"specification":null,"notes":null,"user_id":9277,"product_id":980,"userproduct_id":null,"order":1000,"quantity":null,"aquired":null,"created_at":"2024-07-21T15:57:47.000000Z","updated_at":"2024-07-21T15:57:47.000000Z","status_id":null,"product":{"id":980,"name":"FOURTEX 4WD","shortname":null,"fullname":"Elcon models FOURTEX 4WD","description":"The FourteX is a 4WD buggy which fits the large scale class. The main revolution is the all new planetary drive line, with a centered motor. It requires just\u00a04 bolts to unscrew this full drive line with motor, to take it out of the car. \r\nChange of the gear ratio is easy. By exchanging the planetary gear holder and sun gear, a new gear ratio is achieved. The outer gear remains in place for all gear ratios. Beside a quick change of gear ratios or motor, taking of main assemblies makes maintenance and cleaning easy as 1-2-3 on this car.\r\n\r\nYou might wonder why we opted for a planetary gear system. What is the benefit? There is a series of good reasons for this.\r\n\r\nPlanetary gears are a lot stronger and thus more durable. Per engine side there are 4 planet gears converting the torque of the engine towards the differentials. Hence, a total of 8(!) gears are distributing the power of the engine.\u00a0 \r\nNot only is it stronger and weighs less. It reduces the momentum of inertia on rotating items tremendously compared to other cars. As only the sun and planet gears rotate, the outer big gear does not rotate. \r\nThe result is you will experience a far more agile and responsive car on throttle. \r\nAlso a planetary system is efficient regarding power loss. Less motor energy is dissipated in friction due to a more straight forward drive line. More motor energy goes to the wheels. Last advantage is maybe not that important in our application, but the gears are nicely quit as all is enclosed.\r\n\r\nAs both sides of the engine are driven, the car uses a double clutch set-up. Each side uses a teflon adjustable clutch. The clutch is one of the items under high load and stress in current designs. By using a clutch for the front and a clutch for the rear, motor power is divided over two clutches. This results in lower stress on each clutch. The well-known effect of teflon clutches engaging sooner and sooner due to heat building in a car is solved, as the clutch temperature stays significant lower. \r\nAnother advantage is the clutches can be adjusted separately. The front clutch can be engaging at a different RPM compared with the rear clutch. A big help to make the front start pulling first in tight slower corners keeping the car able to exit the curve on the inside. Though we advise to use our teflon clutch, other clutches can be fitted (low version).\r\n\r\nEngine placement is sideways with the cylinder faced to the left side of the car. This results in a wanted air flow from the fan of the engine towards the rear. With a big exhaust gasket, air flow will bend to the rear of the car. A lightweight lexan wind tunnel is delivered along. This is mounted to the engine cover to make the warm air be blown out directly from the body work. \r\nYou can paint the air tunnel in your own desired cool design, the air tunnel also ensures to keep the car and engine cool. \r\nSpeaking of \u201ccool\u201d... lower temperature means free horse power and less fuel consumption!\r\n\r\nBut also we took care in the design, having warm and cold parts being separated in the car. Fuel tank, radio gear and servos are as much as possible mounted on the right side of the car. Away from hot parts which are located at the left side of the car.\r\n\r\nAt the front we find a double steering servo. Small servos are used to keep the overall weight low. With servos growing stronger all the time we have chosen to design the car based on small servos. This small servo layout has proven to be sufficient for its purpose.\r\n\r\nThe servo and servo saver are captured in a single bracket. All torque and force generated by the servo remain within this servo bracket. No stress is transferred to the chassis or other components while steering. This allows for the other components to be designed in a light, yet strong way.\r\n\r\nAs the car uses only 2 differentials, it saves the weight of a 3rd differential commonly used in 4WD cars. Even more important this eliminates a rather heavy rotating part. The design without middle differential helps you to keep constantly your front- and rear-end being powered. Where a middle differential will direct the power in the direction with least resistance. The middle centre double clutch set-up ensures the power to reach both front and rear-end at all time. Well-known \u201cwheel ballooning\u201d is reduced, put the power to the ground. Let\u2019s accelerate!\r\n\r\nApart from great acceleration you will need to stop. A rear solid double disc break is standard included, mounted at the rear pinion. On the drive train there is foreseen an option to mount an air brake system. This can be done on both sides (front and\/or rear). All possible options regarding brake set-up can be made. Whatever personal preference you have, be it mechanical or air based brake or a combination. Also different brake settings front\/rear are all possible.\r\n\r\nOnly high-end materials are used for the car components, this buggy is designed to race. Of course our latest by-pass shocks are included and can be mounted in several positions. Spline drives front and rear, no worries, they are there. It is needless to say you can trim your car the way you like it (camber, toe-in, roll centre, etc).\r\n\r\nThe car is offered to you as \u201croller\u201d. It needs to be build by the buyer. An on-line manual to guide you through the build is available. Included are 2 teflon adjustable clutches, expansion exhaust, starter tool and special flywheel.\r\n\r\n1 Pair Blue 110mm 1 Pair Red 110mm springs are supplied with the car\u00a0\r\n\r\nHigh Gearing setup also supply with the car\r\n\r\nFollowing parts need to be bought separately: Shock oil, Grease\u00a0 Wheels\/tyres, air brake, electric starter and additional gear ratios. The engine, its filter and your electronics is also something which is not included.\r\n\r\ngrease for the spline drive \/ gears and oil for lubrication of the CVD is sold separately.","picture":"images\/4909\/conversions\/fourtex-4wd--preview.jpg","url":"https:\/\/elcon-models.com\/cars\/1064-fourtex-4wd-.html","organization_id":20,"user_id":10,"user_is_owner":0,"type_id":"car","year":2019,"created_at":"2021-10-13T18:48:08.000000Z","updated_at":"2021-10-13T19:30:01.000000Z","interactivity_id":null,"status_id":null,"url2":null,"type":{"id":"car","name":"Car","shortname":null,"description":"Car","config":null,"filter":"cars","icon":"directions_car","color":null,"default":0,"disabled":0,"order":1,"type_id":"product","created_at":"2019-10-31T23:45:39.000000Z","updated_at":"2020-10-23T17:47:55.000000Z"}}}, "https://pixits.racing/setups?user_id=9277&product_id=980&userproduct_id=12131", "https://pixits.racing/users?product_id=980")){kind=link}

The 5IVE-B has been designed from the ground up to the exacting standards of TLR\u00ae engineering and includes standard features you simply won\u0027t find in anything else.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Purpose-Built Racing Chassis** \r\n\r\nUnlike lesser 1\/5-scale basher-based buggies modified for racing the Team Losi Racing 5IVE-B has been designed for one purpose: Racing. The 5IVE-B features a 5mm 6061-T6 aluminum chassis specifically engineered for competition. The chassis plate has been inspired by the legendary TLR 8IGHT\u2122 platform, featuring a shorter wheel base than others for improved handling. The chassis plate also has milled pockets that save weight and allow enough flex for maximum traction under hard acceleration.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Heavy Duty Braking System**\r\n\r\nThe 5IVE-B features stamped-steel rotors and, when combined with the heavy duty plates and pads, provide a sense of confidence and control that allows racers to drive harder into corners and come to a stop more quickly. Front-to-rear braking bias can also be fine-tuned for evolving track conditions.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Dual-Steering-Servo Radio Tray**\r\n\r\nThe 5IVE-B radio tray has been designed to accommodate the most powerful 1\/5-scale steering servos available. This includes the Spektrum\u2122 line of 1\/5-scale servos with patent-pending Back EMF technology that prevents servo fade and maintains maximum holding power for the duration of a receiver pack. DDM recommends the Hitec D845WP servos as well. \r\n \r\n**Racing Body and Wing** \r\n\r\nThe 5IVE-B body has been inspired by those used on 1\/8-scale racing buggies, featuring a cab-forward design. This distinctive shape provides greater front down force which improves steering. The wing features a removable wicker bill for tailoring the rear down force to meet the precise track conditions.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Aluminum Clutch Carrier and Center Diff Case**\r\n\r\nThe 5IVE-B features race-bred drive system engineered to exacting standards to harness the power of a high-output gas engine during the most-extreme conditions. The clutch and center differential are both CNC-machined aluminum, providing strength and durability while helping to dissipate heat, keeping things cool and providing more consistent performance throughout a run.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Hard-Anodized Aluminum Shocks and Shock Towers**\r\n\r\nThe hard anodized 24mm shocks include bleeder caps that make them easier to build without sacrificing performance. The machined aluminum shock towers offer multiple shock mounting options that give racers an abundance of tuning options for different track conditions.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**One-Piece Glue-Style Wheels**\r\n\r\nThe low rotational mass of these wheels allow the 5IVE-B to accelerate faster with less stress on drivetrain components.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Air Filter Designed Specifically for the 5IVE-B Buggy**\r\n\r\nWhatever 25cc-to-32cc engine you install in your buggy the included air filter has been designed for maximum air flow to the carb while keeping dirt, grit and debris out of your engine. This translates into an air filter which provides maximum protection while unleashing the monster horsepower your engine was built for.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Axle Boots**\r\n\r\nMolded rubber boots on the CVAs and center drive train dog bones increase U-joint life. The boots help keep grease in and dirt out so your axles last longer and require less maintenance.\u00a0 \r\n \r\n**Adjustable Toe and Anti-Squat Plates**\r\n\r\nFor maximum tuning the 5IVE-B includes adjustable front and rear A-Arm mounts. By swapping out inserts you will be able to fine tune your car by altering the toe-in, anti-squat to maximize the traction and overall performance of the chassis.","picture":"images\/8669\/conversions\/inbound8242973955851999731-preview.jpg","url":"https:\/\/www.davesmotors.com\/Losi-5ive-B-4WD-1-5-Buggy-Race-Kit-TLR05001","organization_id":3,"user_id":2815,"user_is_owner":0,"type_id":"car","year":null,"created_at":"2022-03-07T04:05:36.000000Z","updated_at":"2022-03-07T04:05:36.000000Z","interactivity_id":null,"status_id":null,"url2":null,"type":{"id":"car","name":"Car","shortname":null,"description":"Car","config":null,"filter":"cars","icon":"directions_car","color":null,"default":0,"disabled":0,"order":1,"type_id":"product","created_at":"2019-10-31T23:45:39.000000Z","updated_at":"2020-10-23T17:47:55.000000Z"}}}, "https://pixits.racing/setups?user_id=9277&product_id=1129&userproduct_id=12134", "https://pixits.racing/users?product_id=1129")){kind=link}
