DESERT REMOTE CONTROL CARS & TRUCKS
For radio control car and truck enthusiasts who love to rip up the sand and the dirt, Losi® has the perfect RC vehicles. Losi remote control desert trucks and buggies range from electric unlimited Trick Trucks to massive 2-stroke gasoline powered buggies that weigh up to thirty-five pounds. In fact, off road desert vehicles are the largest category of Losi radio control models. You’ll have no difficulty finding one that will get your adrenaline pumping!
Desert trucks are also the biggest segment in the full scale off-road world, where the competition requires a passion for motorsports, a well-built racing vehicle, a good support crew, and some wide-open desert and tough terrain. The Mint 400, held every March in the treacherous foothills of Las Vegas, Nevada, is one good example of a popular full-size desert off-road race event. The oldest and most prestigious off-road race in America, it involves two days of rugged off-road racing over a desolate and punishing 400 mile course.
In full scale and in the radio control car hobby, off-road desert racing is among the most rewarding and exciting forms of competition. Nothing can match the satisfaction you’ll experience after successfully taking on the toughest off-road terrain with your own RC vehicle and crossing the finish line at the end of a long and grueling event.
In the Losi RC car and truck lineup, desert vehicle options aren’t limited only to RC vehicles made for running on a desert type of surface. They also include replicas that capture the scale looks of a desert truck. Losi RC desert buggies and trucks are available in sizes ranging from the popular and economical 1/10 scale electric to huge 1/5 and 1/6 scale vehicles with electric or gas power.
With the 1/10 scale Losi Ford Raptor Baja Rey® RC desert truck, you can skim across the whoops of the proving grounds, reach top speed across Jean Lake, and take advantage of 4WD across the loose silt at Chokers, just like the actual race trucks racing the Mint 400. It’s an authentic off-road racing experience and capable of flying across the desert at speeds in excess of 50 mph. The TENACITY® DB Pro, also 1/10 scale, has a scale-inspired desert buggy body along with a wing and off-road buggy inspired wheel design that looks good in the backyard and out in the desert blasting berms.
For desert blasting in a bigger way, the 1/5 scale DBXL 2.0 has a roaring Zenoah® 32cc engine and heavy-duty construction that pulverizes the terrain at ballistic speeds. There’s also a large-capacity fuel tank for extended run times. It’s available with brushless electric power as the 1/5 scale DBXL-E 2.0, delivering performance and speed that still outruns the competition.
Most of these and other Losi radio control off-road vehicles offer the convenience of ready-to-run (RTR) completion. Get yours today, and almost immediately you can be tearing up the sand or turf with a scale version of the same buggies and trucks that tame the desert!
