This is a 1/5-scale RC front chassis skid plate machined from titanium with a nominal 5mm thickness, produced for the LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 platform. The plate is intended to protect the chassis underside from direct impacts, abrasion from sand and gravel, and common off-road contact points on desert truck runs.
Manufacturing notes: the part is wire-cut machined, so fine machining marks and occasional slight burrs at the edges can be present. Minor surface scratches may occur during handling and shipping. These cosmetic marks do not affect structural performance or fitment.
Installation and tuning role: the plate installs at the front chassis lower plane to absorb impacts before they reach the gearbox and motor mount areas, helping preserve alignment and reducing wear on suspension mounting points. Use medium-strength screw thread adhesive on fasteners where indicated to reduce the chance of loosening under vibration. Check fastener torque after initial runs and after heavy impacts.
Included hardware and packing: the kit ships with the skid plate and the specified black flat head screws to secure the plate to the chassis, pre-assembled as supplied. Verify screw counts and tightness during installation and keep spares for field repairs.
For LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 owners looking for a durable, low-profile front underside protector, this titanium skid plate provides a rigid mounting surface and improved resistance to abrasion; inspect for machining marks before fitment and use medium-strength screw glue on the fasteners.
