Cantilever suspension. I like it.


The answer is no. And yes, mine is faster.

Edit- Maybe Slash. But its definately a Traxxas product with the Titan motor and Traxxas high current plug. Now I'm thinking Slash.
It's the slash with an aftermarket chassis.

not sure, but it looks like someone else is in the market of making those 17mm hub for these...... too bad the tracks dont allow anything but stock tires.

i personally dont like the chassis, jmo it lets too much crap get thrown up into the electronics.



whats that 1/10th 4wd buggy?

I do like the chassis, it looks like it has an adjustable battery bay. Would be nice to go from 6 cells to 7 cells, then switch to off sized LiPos.

The buggy is a Tenth Tech design, not sure if its a predator or not.

On the mini slayer and revo, I like the core racers, but am a MT guy at heart. So i'll be getting a mini revo, E-revo Brushless for racing and the Summit for pure snot beating bashing. And yes it will be brushless, Though i'm thinking my 2250/10t lehner and quark 125 w/5s+ lipo's will get the nod

On the mini revo, I see it as a VXL 3500 setup with parallel batteries, Though i got an XL 1200 lehner and a quark 80 that might get in there.

wow 3000 posts


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

The kv matches up pretty well, but it's definitely not a 7L.

Nope, it's some kind of custom-spec'd motor; rotor's somewhere between an S-can and L-can in size. But that's what I meant. The ESC was built by Traxxas, and the motor was specified by Traxxas for Feigao to make.

to make it...
or break it...

Oh yes, anyone that has sunk 600 bucks into a mlst will feel my pain. I am not fond of losi minis, the mini t is ok, but not that great. It is simple, which is the only saving grace for it. The mlst is crap and will easily break diffs bone stock.

I like the design of the lst, but it is too complex to be scaled down to the mlst size. Nice idea, but poor execution. I have had good success with a rc18t, and I am sure the xray mini is very nice too.

My first RC (bought earlier this year) was a mlst2 (the baja one). I've replaced multiple steering servo's (finally put in some metal geared ones), front, rear & center diffs, multiple spurs, and various other bits and pieces. My sons have fun with it, but it has not proven to be the most solid of trucks, for sure.

My e-revo.... haven't broken anything... yet!

The mini brushless revo has my interest as a solid mlst2 replacement.
