Has anyone else seen or heard about this? I've only seen it on the Horizon Hobby UK website. I like, what do y'all think?

I definitely like!, UK always gets great stuff before Canada. Like the gas powered savage.
 
That thing looks like a beast.
 
I could see that joining my collection. :D
 
Looks like an aftermarket parts dream rig with all the plastic. 23cc engine is a fail.

Anybody considering this should know that it's actually a rebranded Himoto/RCMK rig. That's why there is no parts comparability with the Losi Five.

I know but it looks so neat!
 
I still want one. What's the one that looks like it made by Himoto/RCMK? Cause the ones I've seen look different, also one webpage I found didn't have any 1/5 on it.

My hobby store, the one I got the mERV from sent me a members e-mail saying, they just got these in stock, and it can be mine for 1049.99 w/shipping, but if I do then it'll set my wraith project back a few weeks. I'm so torn!
 
@Alexander_0_1 do you have a large scale RC already? If not, once you get one you'll be hooked!

I like the thought of fuel being so readily available as opposed to having to Jump into the truck and travel 300km one way for a box of nirto fuel.

I like the losi 1/5 SCT a lot, just not its price tag. Also I've had good luck with HPI products.
 
I am thinning the herd a bit to fit one of these into the collection. The 40 minute runtime really interests me.

The long run times of gas powered 1/5 scale are awesome. You will love it. Being able to run cheap chainsaw gas can't be beat!
