Vehicle/Manual Organization:
be omitted. Please note these numbers do not call out every sub-step
required for the step’s assembly procedures, they only highlight the
critical order required for assembly.
In each step, “Detail Icons” (
) call out critical precautions or assembly
tips for the process. There is a reference key that describes the meaning
of each of the icons located on the fold-out Hardware Identification
Guide at the back of this manual. To ensure that parts are not lost during
construction, you should work over a towel or mat to prevent parts from
rolling away.
The vehicle is composed of different steps marked A through H. Each bag
contains all of the parts necessary to complete a particular section of the
vehicle. Some of these bags have sub-assembly steps within them. You
should read through the instructions for an entire bag prior to working
on your vehicle. Next to each of the step numbers is a check box. At the
completion of each step, place a check in this box so that if you must
stop and come back to the assembly, you can begin where you left off.
For your convenience, an actual-size Hardware Identification Guide is
included as a fold-out page at the back of this manual. Hardware that is
not easily differentiable in each step is called out with an icon which
contains a small picture of the part genre (referenced on the Hardware
Identification Guide), the quantity of that part required for what is shown
in the step, and the size or name of that part. To check a part, hold it
against the silhouette until the correct part is identified. Associated
with each of these parts, in the
Hardware Identification Guide, is
an LOSA Number which is used
when ordering replacement
parts for your 8IGHT 2.0EU. In
some cases, extra hardware has
been supplied for parts that may
be easy to lose.
You can identify components used in each step by their LOSA Number
and component name. With the exception of a few parts, these are not
referenced in the Hardware Identification Guide.
The molded parts in Team Losi Racing vehicles are manufactured to
demanding tolerances. When screws are tightened to the point of
being snug, the parts are held firmly in place. For this reason, it is very
important that screws not be over-tightened in any of the plastic parts.
In some steps there will be a filled black circle with a white number.
These indicate the specific order by which assembly must occur. In cases
where steps are repeated (front/rear or left/right) these numbers may

CHECKLIST
SETUP GUIDE
BEFORE RUNNING YOUR NEW 8IGHT 2.0EU BUGGY run down the following checklist in order and complete the listed tasks. Please note that finetuning of the initial setup is an essential part of building a high-performance buggy, so follow this simple Checklist and the Team Tips to make the first
run with your new buggy much more enjoyable.
Before you start making changes on your 8IGHT 2.0EU Off-Road Racing buggy, you need to make a few decisions. You will find the best adjustment
will become a personal decision based on the “feel” each of these adjustments yield. Never make more than one change at a time. If the change you
made works adversely, or doesn’t address your need, return to the previous position and try something else. For the latest in setup and accessory
parts information, visit the Losi web site at: www.losi.com regularly. Also note that there are many ways to set up a car. The rules we follow can reverse
sometimes with different driving styles or different setup styles.
1.
Droop:
Breaking in the differential:
While holding the chassis with only the left side tires firmly on the ground, give the car about one eighth throttle, for 30 seconds. The right
side tires should spin freely during this time. Repeat this with only the right side tires held firmly to the ground, allowing the left tires to
spin. Repeat these steps at least two more times.
2.Check for free suspension movement:
Always measure the droop of the 8IGHT 2.0EU with the shocks on the buggy. Droop is always measured from the center of the top shock mount to
the center of the bottom shock screw and is usually accomplished with digital calipers for a precise measurement. More droop (travel) in the front has
more on-power steering and allows the buggy to roll more on the rear when on throttle. More droop (travel) in the rear increases off-power steering
and allows the buggy to roll on the front when off throttle. More front and rear droop accelerates better in bumps when going straight, but can cause
the buggy to traction roll in rough turns. Less front and rear droop slides over bumps better in turns and may be better on high-speed and hightraction tracks. A general setup for shock length is 95mm in the front and 107mm in the rear.
All suspension arms and steering components should move freely. Any binds will cause the car to handle poorly.
Front Camber Links:
3.
Set the ride height:
Set the ride height on your buggy so that the bottom of the chassis is 24mm from the ground in front and 28mm in the rear by adjusting
the shock adjustment nuts, effectively increasing or decreasing pre-load on the springs. See the Setup Guide for additional information on
ride height adjustment.
4.
Rear Camber Links:
Set the camber:
Adjusting the camber tie rod length changes the amount of camber. Use the Losi wrench to adjust the tie rods once installed. Rotating the
tie rods towards the front end of the vehicle will shorten the length, increasing negative camber. Rotating the tie rods towards the back
of the car will lengthen them, decreasing negative camber. Set the front tires to have 3 degrees of negative camber and ensure they are
adjusted equally, left to right. Set the rear tires to have 2 degrees of negative camber and ensure they are adjusted equally, left to right.
5.
The lower camber link locations on the tower have more camber gain (total camber change through the suspension travel). Running the camber tie
rod in the lower holes increases off-power steering and makes the vehicle more aggressive; however you may lose some consistency. More camber
gain is good on small tight tracks. We find that running less camber gain in the front suits the car the best for consistency and steering balance. On
the 8IGHT 2.0EU we offer a longer camber link on the spindle carrier. A longer front camber link makes the vehicle feel stiffer and this keeps the buggy
flatter with less roll and increases high-speed steering. A short front camber link rolls more and makes the vehicle more aggressive. Too short of a
front link may make the vehicle feel twitchy.
The 8IGHT 2.0EU has only two vertical rows of camber locations on the rear tower. The stock camber link setup for the 8IGHT 2.0EU is location #2 on
the tower and B in the hub. A longer rear camber link provides less roll and improves stability and traction. A shorter rear camber link has more roll
and increases steering and better handling in the bumps. By raising the inner camber link up you increase the roll stiffness of the vehicle. This can
make the vehicle easier to drive but may reduce corner speed and hurt bump absorption. Running “A” in the rear hub generates more corner rotation
entering the turn, but decreases steering on exit. Running “B” in the hub is more stable entering the turn and increases steering on exit.
Kingpin Inclination:
Set the front toe-in:
Adjust the front steering tie rods so that when the servo is centered on the transmitter, the front tires are both pointing slightly out with
2.5 degrees of toe-out. Refer to the Setup Guide for more information on toe-in/out.
The 8IGHT 2.0EU is equipped with king pin inclination. We find that on high-speed tracks the king pin inclination provides an increase of precision
steering while keeping the front of the car flatter. This has shown to improve handling in rough portions of the track. The 8IGHT 2.0EU is equipped
with 12-degree Spindle Carriers, however 10-degree Spindle Carriers (LOSA1728) are offered as an option part. Less caster ultimately has less offpower steering but improves on-power steering.
6.
Camber:
Charge a receiver battery pack:
Charge a battery pack as per the battery manufacturer’s and/or charger manufacturer’s instructions so that radio adjustments can
be made.
7.
Set the transmitter steering trim:
The steering trim tab on the transmitter should be adjusted so the car rolls straight when you are not touching the steering wheel/stick. If
the servo and steering link were installed correctly, the wheels should turn equally to the left and right. If this is not the case, refer to Table
2 and ensure the steering servo and horn were properly installed. Also check the steering link length as noted in Step A-01. Make sure the
throttle trim is set so the brakes are not “dragging” in the neutral position.
8.
More negative camber in the front has more steering and is more responsive. Less negative camber in the front has less steering and is smoother.
More negative camber in the rear has less rear traction, but increases on-power steering and is less grabby in bumps. Less negative camber in the rear
has more rear traction and makes the rear of the buggy stay flatter, but if traction is lost it is more violent. To ensure your 8IGHT 2.0EU has the correct
camber we recommend using our Losi Camber Gauge (LOSA99172).
1 ° Negative Camber
3 ° Negative Camber
5 ° Negative Camber
Front
Set the transmitter throttle and brake trim:
The throttle trim tab on the transmitter should be adjusted so the brakes are not dragging in the neutral position. The idle adjustment
screw on the carburetor should be set at approximately 1mm open. When the throttle trigger is pulled back to the maximum, the
carburetor is fully opened.

Front and Rear Adjustable Hinge Pin Braces:
Bump Steer:
The 8IGHT 2.0EU is equipped with adjustable front and rear hinge pin braces. The adjustable hinge pin braces allow the angle of the pins on the
front of the vehicle to be adjusted for more or less kick and on the rear of the vehicle for more or less toe-in, and more or less anti-squat. The charts
below show the hinge pin insert orientation to acquire different setups.
Running the bump steer ball down you will have smoother steering in the middle of the turn. With the bump steer ball up, you will increase steering
in the middle of the turn.

Front Toe:
You never want to run toe-in on the front of the 8IGHT 2.0EU. Front toe-in (longer steering rods) decreases steering response entering in the middle
of the turn but increases on-power steering. Toe-out (shorter steering rods) increases steering response when entering the turn and increases
straight line stability, however, it decreases on-power steering.
Ride Height:
Measuring from a flat surface to the bottom face of the chassis, adjust the front of the chassis with 24mm of ride height and 28mm in the rear. On
high-speed tracks the 8IGHT 2.0EU handles best when the front ride height is 2mm to 3mm lower or at least level than the rear of the truck. To
measure your ride height properly we recommend using the Losi Ride Height Gauge (LOSA99173).
Engine Installation:
• Step 1: Before tightening the four engine mount screws, you need to tighten the gear mesh.
• Step 2: P
lace a piece of paper between the Clutch Bell gear and Spur gear, slide the engine
pinching it between the gears, snug the engine mount screws.
• Step 3: R
ock one gear back and forth slightly while holding the other one steady. Check the
gear mesh all the way around the spur gear.
• Step 4: O
nce engine alignment and gear mesh are correct, tighten the screws. Re-check the
gear mesh to ensure the engine mounts did not move.
Tuning the Engine:
Should be done following the manufacturer's instructions.
To Shut Off the Engine:
Rear Toe-in:
Simply use the included pipe plug. Losi also makes a tuning driver with a built-in plug for the pipe (LOSA99167).
The 8IGHT 2.0EU kit setup is with 3 degrees of toe-in per side. Less rear toe-in increases the wheel base of the buggy and decreases forward
traction, but increases top speed and side traction in the middle of a turn. More toe-in increases forward traction, has more off-power steering and
less side traction. This is adjusted by the adjustable hinge pin braces with the different inserts included with the vehicle. See the table under the
“Adjustable Hinge Pin Braces” in this section.
Clutch:
Front Kick:
Plastic vs. Aluminum Clutch Shoes:
The 8IGTH 2.0EU comes with 0 inserts in the front and rear. This is a very neutral setup. Increasing the amount of kick has more off-power steering,
but decreases on-power steering. Increasing the kick is recommended for low-grip tracks. Decreasing the amount of kick has more on-power
steering, but less off-power steering. Decreasing the amount of kick is recommended for high-grip tracks.
On new clutch bells make sure to clean the inside of the clutch bell with a scouring pad or fine sandpaper to improve the break-in period. Softer springs
engage at a lower rpm and have a smoother power band. If the engine doesn’t have enough low-end power try running more preload (spring with more
angle) or a stiffer spring. Stiffer springs engage at a higher rpm.

4 Aluminum with Gold
Increased punch, good for jumps right out of turn, with average mileage.
Generally smaller hole pistons, #56, have stiffer damping, slower weight transfer, slower response, and lands large jumps better. Larger hole pistons,
#54, have softer damping, increased traction, quicker weight transfer/response, and bottom out easier off large jumps.

4 Aluminum with 2 Silver and 2 Gold
Very aggressive with great punch, engine will run hotter and shoe life will diminish
10
4 Aluminum with Silver
Most aggressive, maximum punch. Use with motor that has very low bottom end
Rear Squat:
Wheel Base:
The 8IGHT 2.0EU kit setup is a long wheelbase. A shorter wheelbase (spacers behind the rear hubs) increases on-power traction, rear weight
transfer, and has more off-power steering. A shorter wheelbase is better on tight or slick tracks. A longer wheelbase (spacers in front of the rear
hubs) decreases off-power steering, is more stable, better in bumps, and has more on-power steering.
Sway Bars:
The 8IGHT 2.0EU kit setup is with 2.5mm sway bar on the front and a 2.3mm sway bar on the rear. A thinner front sway bar increases front off-power
traction, but has less on-power steering. A thicker front sway bar decreases front off-power traction making the steering smoother entering the
turn, but has more on-power steering. A thinner rear sway bar increases rear traction and decreases on-power steering. A thicker rear sway bar
increases stability in the middle of the turn and increases on-power steering. Thicker sway bars are more stable on high-speed, high-traction tracks.
Shock Oil:
Lighter shock oil has more overall traction and responds quicker. Thicker oil has less overall traction and reacts slower. On high bite/smooth tracks,
thicker oil is easier to drive. Make sure you adjust oil when there is a drastic temperature change (10º-12ºC) or (20º-25ºF). If it gets cold outside you
need to go to lighter shock oil. If it gets hotter outside you need to go to thicker weight shock oil.
Shock Caps and Foam Bladder Compensators:
The 8IGHT 2.0EU is equipped with vented shock caps and foam bladder compensators. The vented shock caps allow the shocks to remain
consistent by dissipating pressure as it increases from increased temperature changes. Also included with the 8IGHT 2.0EU are foam bladder
compensators used between the bladder and the vented shock cap. The foam bladder compensators provide a more responsive feel to the vehicle.
We advise that if you choose to not run the foam bladder compensators that you use non-vented shock caps (LOSA5420).
Clutch Engagement Softest to Hardest
The 8IGHT 2.0EU comes with three degrees of anti-squat. Running less anti-squat has less off-power steering and rolls (side to side) more on the
rear. Less anti-squat accelerates better in small bumps. More anti-squat has more support (side to side) and is better on rough tracks with big jumps.
This is adjusted by the adjustable hinge pin braces with the different inserts included with the vehicle. See the table under the “Adjustable Hinge
Pin Braces” in this section.
Clutch Rebuild Tips:
Whenever you need to rebuild your clutch we recommend the following tips.
• Clean all parts, including bearings, with Losi Nitrotec™ Spray Cleaner (LOSA99217) to ensure no oil or debris are on any of the parts.
• We recommend NOT using any type of threadlock on the clutch pins when reinstalling, this make it difficult for next reinstall.
• Once installed, pull back each clutch shoe 1mm to make sure they spring back to position to ensure proper movement.
• Ensure clutch bell movement of .25mm to .50mm and spins freely on the crank shaft. Use Losi’s Metric Shim Set, LOSA6356 to dial this in.
• Break-in: While firmly holding the vehicle down, apply ½ throttle for three seconds. Repeat this three times to fully seat in your new clutch.
Shock Mounting Positions:
More inclined (moving the shocks in on the tower) has softer initial damping and is more forgiving. Less inclined (moving the shocks out on the
tower) makes the car more responsive and is better for technical tracks.
Ackerman:
The long Ackerman plate has smooth off-power steering and is more forgiving. The long Ackerman plate has more steering on-power. The short
Ackerman plate responds quicker and has more steering in the middle of the turn. A short Ackerman plate is better suited for tight technical tracks.

The Receiver Battery:
Differentials:
The receiver battery is an important, frequently overlooked part of gas-powered vehicles. A low receiver battery can cause the vehicle to act strange.
The result can be a runaway vehicle or a poorly responding radio system. The length of time a receiver battery pack’s charge lasts depends on the
type of servos used. If using a NiCd or NiMH receiver pack, you should use a minimum battery size of 1100mAh and minimum voltage of 5.4 volts.
Recommended batteries offered by Losi are LOSB9951 6V 1400mAh NiMH Receiver Pack or LOSB9820 7.4V 2000mAh 2C LiPo Receiver Pack. Please note
you need a voltage regulator if you choose to use a Lithium Polymer (LiPo) receiver pack. Losi offers voltage regulators with a switch, LOSB9608 and
without a switch, LOSB9609.
Thinner front differential oil increases off-power steering, but if the oil is too thin the steering becomes grabby and inconsistent. Thicker front
differential oil increases off-power stability and increases on-power steering. Thinner center differential has less forward drive, can unload more under
acceleration and is easier to drive on rough and slick tracks. Thicker center differential has more acceleration, increases on-power steering, and less
off-power steering. Thicker center differential is better on high bite/smooth tracks. Thinner rear differential has more corning traction and increases
steering in the middle of the turn. Thicker rear differential has less steering in the middle of the turn and more forward traction.

Fuel Tank:
Your 8IGHT 2.0EU comes preinstalled with a fuel tank insert to meet ROAR and EFRA tank rules. If you are not racing your 8IGHT 2.0 EU where these rules
apply, you can remove the insert to allow for an additional 5cc of fuel and longer run time. Also included in your 8IGHT 2.0 EU is an EFRA Fuel Kit. This
should be used at all EFRA races to ensure your fuel tank volume will not change during racing. The EFRA Fuel Kit ensures the fuel line and clunk do not
come out of the tank, increasing fuel volume. Below is a diagram on how to install the EFRA fuel kit. During installation of your EFRA fuel kit make sure the
fuel tank clunk is positioned to the rear of the tank. This ensures that even during low fuel loads that your tank has the ability to draw fuel. If you are not
using the EFRA fuel kit it is highly advised to check the fuel clunk periodically to ensure it is positioned to the rear of the fuel tank. After normal use it is
possible that the fuel clunk can move forward in the tank causing inconsistent fuel consumption during low fuel loads.

Gearing
The 8IGHT 2.0EU uses a 43-tooth ring gear with a 13-tooth pinion gear giving the car a drive ratio of 3:31:1. The final drive ratio of the 8IGHT 2.0EU,
with the stock gearing of 13/46, is 11.71: 1. If you are running on a large sweeping track and need more top speed, a 14-tooth clutch bell (LOSA9117) is
recommended. You can also tune with optional center spur gears, available in 45-, 47-, 48-, and 50-tooth sizes.

Prepare the Lexan Body for painting by washing it thoroughly (inside and out) with warm water and liquid detergent. Dry the body with a clean, soft
cloth. Use the supplied window masks to cover the windows from the inside. Use a high-quality masking tape on the inside of the body to mask off
any stripes, panels, or designs you wish to paint on the body. Use acrylic lacquer or other paints recommended for Lexan (polycarbonate). (NOTE:
LEXAN RC CAR BODIES ARE MEANT TO BE PAINTED FROM THE INSIDE!) Apply paint to the inside of the Body. Remove the masking tape for the next
color and continue. Try to use darker colors first. If you use a dark color after a light color, apply a coat of white paint over the lighter color before
applying the darker color, or if you are painting over white, coat it with silver. This will help prevent the darker color from bleeding through the lighter
color.
Mounting:
The body is already cut out for mounting. However you will need to cut out the area for the pipe stinger. Do this before you paint your body to see
where it exactly needs trimmed.
Stickers:
After the body is mounted, REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FILM ON THE OUTER SURFACE, now you can apply the stickers.
Brake Setup
The standard brake bias for the 8IGHT 2.0EU is 60% rear - 40% front. If you need the buggy to rotate more under braking, adjust the linkage for less front
brake. If the buggy is loose entering turns under braking, adjust the linkage for less rear brake or more front brake.
Outdrives and Traction:
When your 8IGHT 2.0EU is new it will have a lot of chassis roll and be a little loose on throttle due to lack of friction in the outdrives and crossbones.
After about 45–60 minutes of running, the 8IGHT 2.0EU will gain traction and stability. Once your 8IGHT 2.0EU is broken in, replace the outdrives and
crossbones with new parts for more corner speed.
Front Center Driveshaft:
Maintaining the front center driveshaft is very important. Greasing the front center driveshaft coupler with Losi Hi-Pressure Black Grease
(LOSA99203) and using the rubber boot allows the parts to last longer and improves the drivability of the vehicle.
