Losi mini T or RC18T - 01.02.2006, 11:22 AM

Hi Guys

First of all I wish you a happy new year. I know all of you are driving monsters. My son too. But now I am looking for something smaller, where you can drive inside of the house.

What do you think about these two models. Are there any others? What are the advantages and disadvantages? I need to have a good reliability. It should be ready to run too.

Thank you for your help.

Gusti

Hi squeeforever

Thank you for this idea with the kyosho mini inferno st. This looks really interesting.

Why would you prefer the kyosho? I am not very familar with these products.

Thank you for your help.

well the inferno st has oil filled shocks, sealed diffs (can tune using diff fluid), just plain looks cool and the price. not to mention the look near bulletproof so they would make a nice brushless candidate. if you planned on that i would go with a wanderer 380 motor and a tekin esc.

out of those two i would go with the rc18t. the electronics in the mini-t are almost useless. if it was me though I would go with the inferno st or the mini-lst.

Mini LST!

or the rc18t! if he is planning on using a faster motor, the 4wd is way ahead of the 2wd..

Hi There

which are the weak parts on a mini inferno, which spare parts I should order with this car?

Thank you for your help.

your right, the lst is 4wd. as serum said 4wd is much better with that much power. thats the reason i said i would never consider a mini-t.
