First Impression: The Losi HighRoller rocks.
Posted on Thursday, November 13th, 2008 at 4:12 pm by Jeff HoyMy new HighRoller just arrived via UPS and I wasted no time ripping it out of the packaging, swapping out the receiver for a unit compatible with my Futaba 4PK transmitter, and stuffing in a fully charged LiPo.
The first impression on getting the truck out of the box was “holy $#!7, this thing is awesome lookin’!” My first impression upon tossing it on the ground (literally, I’m not afraid of dropping this truck, it just exudes toughness) and yanking on the trigger was a giddy, child like laugh as it tore off down my driveway and into the weeds and rocks of the field next to my house.
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a big tired basher truck, my last one was actually a Tyco Turbo Hammer, and I’ve missed it greatly. I didn’t get to drive the HighRoller long before my transmitter battery went flat because I forgot to charge it, but I had a blast. I think this truck it going to be my goto basher r/c car from now on.
