A pic of mine with my new Body!

Yep, couldn't run that stock body, so I took this one and cut the wheel-wells alot, added some custom paint, and it bolted up pretty much like stock! Not sure if I'm gona run the rear wing, or cut the box mount on the bed off! Just gotta add some headlites and a grill. Here it is:

Excellent. Thats a much better looking body. Nice job with the paint too!

Thanks! The stock body really isn't that badd after you decal it some, then it looks better than the pics show, but I just always want my own paint work to show. Yeah, after this pic I added some headlites and a chrome billet grill from a full-size kit that I never used, so it looks better now.

I think tomorrow I'll cut that box off the bed, but I'll probally paint the wing and set it there first just to see, but I'm not a wing person, and this wing is huge!

Ehh! I still dont' like the stock body with stickers. It just looks sissy like. I started with the flags then realized there were 2 more sets of stickers on the decal sheet and finally ended up with my third choice. haha!

I don't blame ya! If I had a paintbrush I would sport a good looking paint job on all my bodies too!

The size of that body looks very proportionate too.. I like the TLT but the body looks too small and too high up. I like the body you used a lot...looks more realistic

someone should try the Losi H2 body on the mini giant... I'm sure it would look much better on a monster truck than a stadium truck

I was doing some searching for my MiniZ OL when I came across someone's MiniGiant. They mounted the TeamLosi H2O body pretty good... it really does look much better on the MiniGiant than the MiniT IMO



Also, awesome paint scheme nitrorulz! I'm still hunting down that Grave Digger body. Trying to take advantage of time while Venom send me back a brand new MiniGiant cause my first one was defective... they have great customer service.

So you're Luke from SLC Micro RC(I think that's the name?). Your setup sounds good even though I'm not all that experienced in the electronics I have a question though, does the toe-out fix really help alot? I'm thinking about trying it out.

Thanx.. the electronic swap was mostly to get brakes..and to get better radio reception

The toe fix really helps the truck to track straighter. the stock steering arrangment had too much flex in it, and i was really struggling to keep it straight on ou tight racing course

Here is mine with a Grave Digger Body I painted from a Losi 50's pannel truck.





Here is a video of it in action on "The Pile":
