Key Features
- Precise 22S Fitment — Engineered specifically for the Losi 22S RC car platform, this guard fits perfectly without modification and maintains optimal clearances with all other drivetrain components. Proper fitment means maximum protection without compromising performance or handling characteristics.
- Dual Protection Design — Combines both gear cover and motor guard functionality in a single component, protecting the transmission gearbox and motor assembly simultaneously. This integrated design reduces the number of parts required whilst delivering comprehensive protection where your vehicle needs it most.
- Debris and Contamination Defence — Shields critical drivetrain components from dirt, mud, grass clippings, sand and other environmental contaminants that can accumulate during outdoor running sessions. Keeping debris out of the transmission and motor extends component lifespan and reduces the frequency of maintenance cleaning.
- Impact and Collision Protection — Provides a sacrificial protective layer that absorbs impacts and minor collisions, helping to prevent damage to the expensive motor and transmission assemblies underneath. This is particularly valuable for bashers and learners who are still developing their driving technique.
- Genuine Losi Manufacturing — As an official Losi spare part, this component is manufactured to the same quality standards as the vehicle itself, ensuring durability, reliability and long-term performance. Genuine parts maintain the integrity of your RC vehicle's engineering.
Technical Performance
The Losi Gear Cover & Motor Guard is manufactured from durable materials engineered to withstand the demands of RC car operation whilst remaining lightweight to avoid impacting your vehicle's performance characteristics. The guard is designed with protection as the primary focus, positioned to shield the transmission gearbox and motor compartment from the most common sources of damage and wear that RC enthusiasts encounter during regular running. The design reflects Losi's engineering philosophy of balancing protection with performance, ensuring that adding this guard does not restrict airflow to the motor, impede steering response, or create additional rotational mass that would affect handling. For the Losi 22S platform, this component integrates seamlessly with the existing chassis architecture, requiring no drilling, cutting or modification to install correctly. The protective coverage is comprehensive enough to handle typical bashing conditions, track use and competitive running environments without compromising the mechanical advantages of your drivetrain setup.
