They had one assembled at liesure the other day! I think I might get the buggy when I get the funding!


Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

ill do some vids soon as i finish the build im waiting on starter box now..

ill get the nt18t truck version as well when it comes out... i think compared to my electric m18's this things rolls more freely. you can push it slightly and it will roll pretty far that is important i guess. cant wait to get it started if anyone gets one ill be sure to post our building tips as the manual could be changed for a few things..

I think that and the truck version are two of the sharpest rc's out right now. I want one just to build and look at ...who cares if it even runs!

That kit didn't come with electronics, correct?

Just a thought on the nitro v electric drivetrain. My Mini T is "stiffer" than my Revo, because the electric motor magnets are like brakes without current flowing....

thanks guys yes this thing makes you want to stare at it.. was just a must have to my collection it doesnt really kick in that its a nitro when you set it on the floor or ground and see how small it looks and say damn it is nitro very weird feeling.. cant wait to get the truck... ill get some vids when i get the starter box i got it 100% built and ready minus the body.. if any of you get it heres acouple tips

the brake lingage is tricky the manual says to do it one way but we felt its wrong because we set it up like the one from the webpage where the linkage and mounts under the servos horn and the brake rod is flipped down.. see the pic below
also the brake pad mount that holes the pads didnt line up the best for me but when your ready to put it on make sure you use the correct screws or when screwing it in make sure the screws go in straight otherwise it will go in crooket and then the pads will not allow the disc to flow smoothlty. those were the only 2 issues i had...
