ii
Team Losi is continually changing and improving designs; therefore, the actual part may appear slightly different than the illustrated part. Illustrations of parts and assemblies
may be slightly distorted to enhance pertinent details.
TOOLS REQUIRED FOR ASSEMBLY
Team Losi has supplied all necessary Allen wrenches and a special wrenchs that are needed for assembly and adjustments. The following
common tools will also be required: Needle-nose pliers, regular pliers, hobby knife, scissors or other body cutting/trimming tools, and a
soldering iron may be necessary for radio installation. 3/16”, 1/4”, 5/16”, and 11/32” nut drivers are optional.
RADIO/ELECTRONICS
A suggested radio layout is provided in this manual. Your high performance R/C center should be consulted regarding specifi c questions
pertaining to radio/electrical equipment.
HARDWARE IDENTIFICATION
When in question, use the Hardware Identifi cation Guide at the back of this manual.
For screws, the prefi x number designates the thread size and number of threads per inch (i.e., 4-40 is a #4 size thread with 40 threads per
inch). The second number, or fraction, designates the length of the screw. For cap head and button head screws, this number refers to the
length of the threaded portion of the screw. For fl at head and set screws, this number refers to the overall length of the screw.
Bearings and bushings are referenced by the inside diameter (I.D.) x outside diameter (O.D.).
Shafts and pins are designated by type (Roll, Solid) and referenced by diameter x length.
Washers, Spacers and Shims are described by inside diameter or the screw size that will pass through the inside diameter x the thickness
or by their designated application (i.e., Ball Stud washer is primarily used under a Ball Stud).
Retaining Clips are sized by the shaft diameter that they attach to or by type (Body). The Hardware Icon associated with E/C-Clips only
designates the part genre of clips, not the actual part.
Nuts come in four types, Non-Flanged, Flanged (F), Plain, and Locking (L) (designated on the Hardware Icons). The prefi x number desig-
nates the thread size and number of threads per inch. The second number, or fraction, designates the size of the hex. For example, L 4-40
x 1/4” designates a Lock nut that will thread onto a 4-40 screw using a 1/4” nut driver.
Setscrews come in three types, Cup (C), Flat (F) and Oval (O) (designated on the hardware Icons). The prefi x number designates the thread
size and number of thread per inch. The second number, or fraction, designates the length of the threade portion of the screw. •
