for some reason Losi (Horizon) is having everything come "assembled" all except for the last few 1/10th vehicles....I guess the current crowd of people just want to install a radio and go....and not mess with the time of building a kit.
'Instant gratification' and 'charge and go' is what this is hobby is turning into it seems.....
Look at it this way, for those that just want instant gratification, they'll buy this toy, get frustrated with it and dump it on SleazeBay for a fraction of what they paid.

Oh sure, try to horn in on my parade!
Maybe good advice bears repeating?

I was looking at that one as well....but I kinda like the Losi Setup better. RTR vs RTR they were the same price
basicly, but I think the Spektrum radio and the battery size\shape won me over.
(I got 3 1000mah 7.4 LiPo's from the Mini LST2 deal Horizon had going last month just sitting here)
I also just picked up a Mini-T, which uses the same battery configuration as well.....

I just have 1 I use for my hobby\business eBay stuff. I do all payments online, and I can see the payment transfer in a day so I know it's paid. Easier online as I typically pay the card 3-4 times a month from sales.....
Hmmmm....wife is prob going to throw a fit. So, Traxxas Slash, or Losi Mini Crawler? I'm prob gonna have to pick one or the other, as
she gets suspicious if a vehicle stays assembled too long in my office on a shelf or the workbench.

Professional comp rigs in the 1:1 use dig all the time?! Go to any WeRock or XRRA (sp?) race and you see it constantly. A lot of the rigs have independent dig per wheel now?!
It is far too common in comps and casual crawling real or r/c.
I don't know how many folks took advantage of the sale on the mini b race rollers but I did.
I'm starting this thread to put some information out there, and for others to add what they learn to it.
If you have thing to add please do.

my LHS put a charge on it for me to see if it was any good, it was. They used a squid to charge it trough the smaller plug
I'm curious because online the stories are conflicting. But here's the real question - is it going to be faster than an RC10 gold pan running lipo and a Castle 5700 brushless? My guess is that its not going to be faster but with 4wd, it would be...

Well we were just racing on our street so there was no problem with traction. But I'm not really too worried - if he tries to up the ante with his car, I will whip out the B44 with my 7700 kv motor and lay the AE smack down again :mrgreen:
Hello! First time poster here. I co own a hobby shop and we've just started selling and fixing r.c. stuff. I had a customer buy a brand new mini t brushless, and after the first run his back left tire stopped turning and the back right tire turned...

I think I've widdled down the issues to one thing: the differential inside has too much play. The gears get kinda loose making 1 tire spin at full speed and the other only partially. I've been recommended to regrease? I don't see that will help but...
