Team Losi Micro-T Review with pics

[Mkv6Spd]

Hello guys I just picked up a Micro-T from Debbies RC World.It is an awesome little car.Wheelies on the carpet and all that good stuff.It did charge in about 15 minutes.In the box you get 16 batteries.They are labled what 8 batteries go where.* in the charger and the other 8 in the radio.The radio has all the functions that my Mrs4 has on it.Pretty impressive for a package that only cost $79.99.I bought it for my girlfriend as one of her Early Christmas gifts.I might buy some more after x-mas for me and the kids.Thumbs up to Team Losi on an awesome truck.The color I got her was the blue one.It is really like a color changing Purple-Blue.I hope you guys enjoy the pics.Video will come soon!

[alfred]

Thanks too my buddy Mkv6Spd aka Cris was kind enough to send me some pics of the motor comparison........by the looks of it, it seems to be a 130size motor too me.

Just came back from a few runs with my lady.We ran the micro-t vs my Mrs4 with hpi's upgraded motor,2500mah energizer rechargables.It seems that they go exactly the same speed no joke.Both where on a full charge.Going head on straitaway they where side by side the whole time.Just compairing it so you guys can get an idea of the speed these little guys have.It was fun but very cold outside.Peace out

[Big-Kid]

whoa thats nuts that it went the same speed as your MRS4:eek:

Anyone expierenced any broken or bent parts yet guys? Or has anyone gotten around to do any mod's?

Thanks for the vid TeamBlaze:) . I really likee when they placed the four Losi trucks together:p

[Mkv6Spd]

I have recharged my micro-t about 10 times now.I played with it at work in the house and outside.I have hit several things here and there on purpose to see if it will hold up and it has.No broken parts yet!

[BLiND]

it looks like mini-z mod motors would be a good drop in upgrade for them.

[Big-Kid]

Hey whats up Blind.....good to see ya:D

Have you gotten your hands on one yet? Or do they seem to small to you:p This seems like somwhat of a "nitch" market like the Mini-Z's, but with Losi's bigger distribution powers, it may take off alot more. The aftermarket parts will hopefully be flooding the market soon:) . Got any plans to jump in?;)

Are the Mini-Z parts and Xmods parts similar? Not that I don't care for Mini-Z's, it's just that we don't get any locally :( . Or are things like the Xmod motors not even worth considering?:cool:

[BLiND]

I dont recall if the xmod used 130 or 180 motors at the moment, but I think they used 130's.

the mini-z's use 130's, so any aftermarket mini-z motor should be a good drop in.


unfortunately most are tuned for high rpm low torque, so I don't know how well they'd run on a micro-t with the larger heavier tires.


I haven't gotten one yet, but I do want one :D

Blind-,,,,,, waiting on a battery pack,, im sure it will be perfect as usual

[dsm35]

I just baught one too they are cool. Can't wait for after market parts. I'v broke the steering arm I new that they would at the first glance at it. I made new ones out of a black zip tie used the dremel tool to shave it down because they have to bend. Works well Im going to start modding mine over the christmas break. I'v also cracked the rear hub carrier But I gave it the c/a treatment. Over all great truck It's taking the hard hits so far. It needs to be a little faster. Is there a larger battery you can put in it for longer run times? It's only 150 mih:(

[karatepig]

allrighty then, I just bought a micro t for less than 80 bucks total on ebay, and was wondering what I can do as far as upgrading the motor without having to get a new esc. I have four 2500 energizer rchargeable aa's in my possetion, and a few other batteries, but i would like to avoid changon the batt.

I am a believer! http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/end.php
