Product Information

Join the exhilarating world of RC racing with the Losi 8IGHT-XE! Picture yourself on track, navigating through challenging turns, washboard sections and off-camber corners that test your driving skills to the limit. With RC cars hurling at high speeds, sometimes jumping over 30 feet in their quest for victory, the adrenaline rush is unparalleled. To conquer the track, you need more than just speed – you need control, skill, and nerves of steel. Your buggy must adapt to the ever-changing track conditions and your unique driving style. The key to success lies in a vehicle equipped with race-proven features with a combination of performance and reliability.  

Introducing the Losi 8IGHT-XE 1/8 4WD Racing Buggy 

Designed for 1/8 scale off-road buggy racing, the Losi 8IGHT-XE 4WD Racing Buggy is equipped with everything you need to dominate. Based on the back-to-back ROAR National Champion TLR 8IGHT-X platform, this RC buggy has the race-proven design to put you on the podium. 

As aggressive as a nitro, with the simplicity of electric power 

The factory-installed sensored brushless power system consists of a 130A ESC and 2200kv motor that work together to deliver a smooth power band and precise racing control. With a 4S LiPo battery, the brushless motor unleashes raw power that will leave your competitors in the dust. With full metal gears, high torque (over 270 oz-in @ 7.4V), and a fast 0.10-second transit time, the installed Spektrum S665 waterproof steering servo is made to handle the demands of 1/8 scale racing. It also features an industry-standard 25T spline servo horn.  

Also included in the Losi 8IGHT-XE 1/8 4WD Racing Buggy is a Spektrum DX3 2.4GHz Smart Transmitter and SR315 receiver. The DX3’s advanced features and ergonomic design ensure smooth and precise control, giving you what you need to stay ahead of the pack. If you want to upgrade your transmitter down the track, the SR315 receiver offers forward programming to tune your on-board electronics wirelessly. 

Built tough to handle the toughest track conditions  

Made to withstand the demands of competitive racing, the Losi 8IGHT-XE features a thick 4mm aluminium chassis that provides a strong, stable foundation. The heat-treated steel driveline adds to the RC buggy’s durability. Its sealed differentials ensure maximum grip by allowing each tyre to drive independently, and you can tune them with TLR silicone diff fluids (sold separately). The aluminium oil-filled shocks and aluminium shock towers are adjustable, enabling you to fine-tune your suspension for optimal performance on the track. 

Ready to race! 

The Losi 8IGHT-XE lets you get into 1/8 scale racing without breaking the bank. Purchasing a buggy kit, plus all the electronics can get a bit pricey – let alone the time it takes to put it all together. This ready-to-run package offers a fully assembled RC racing buggy, electronics, transmitter, tools, and a clear cab-forward body so you can personalise your buggy with your own unique paint job. Just add your choice of 4S LiPo batteries and you are ready to race. 

Upgradable performance with TLR option parts 

With a range of TLR option parts available, you can customise and fine-tune your buggy to suit your racing style and track conditions, ensuring you're always one step ahead of the competition. 

Get ready to race with the Losi 8IGHT-XE 4WD and experience the thrill of championship-winning action. Whether you’re a seasoned racer or a newcomer to the sport, this buggy offers endless opportunities for excitement and adventure. Dominate the track, push your limits, and leave your competitors in the dust with this high-performance remote-control buggy!
