Nice work coving the mini LMT. You did such a good job. I hate reading manuals and now there is no need after watching your video. It's a super fun truck to drive and so nice to have a small RC in my collection. I do agree that is is lacking in power as well but it takes a beating.
I really like this a lot! When it came out though, I was really surprised it didn’t have at least a 35 amp esc, and at least a 390 or a torquey BL set up. Especially being what it is. I still like it, I just can’t justify the price of one at the scale that it is. Awesome scale looks and build quality though for sure. I’m a hobbyist that likes like some RTR performance right out of the box. When repairs are being made, that’s when I may like to upgrade, but not right away when I just shelled out $200 for mediocre performance. Wish they did build it for someone like me. Maybe someday a few next times from now! 😂👍🏻😎👊🏼
@BangForYourBuckRc That's right never say never. They've been dropping prices on everything over the last year. I like that suggestion for the ESC and motor. I wish they did that and geared down.
Great fun scale MT, best in class for sure. BUT.. The included spektrum charging/battery solution feels like a step backward, and for a non-standard connector. Just a cash grab for extra batteries and specialized charger, because you'll pull your hair out waiting about an hour for the included USB charger to top off the stock 850mah battery. I'm cutting the cord, and going aftermarket.
The charge time on my 850 is probably 6 hrs. Seriously, I plug in the battery at 8:00 am and the light on the charger goes green at about 2:00 in the afternoon. Often times I charge batteries at night so I can get out driving the next morning. The manual specifically says not to leave the battery plugged in after the light goes green. Hopefully a full size Smart charger will speed things up.
Hello, if I want to install another receiver I will probably have to change the Esc. Do you know how many amps the motor has? and the servo can you swap? Does what I have in mind actually work? I don't know that well yet. Best regards
@kamall4773 You can swap out any electronics parts you would like on this RC. The ESC and receiver are a combo part and it would be best to replace both if you are looking to replace the receiver.
I got one. Love the looks and the build quality overall. Overall though a bit of a let down. Something about that center spool with open diffs makes it handle like a toy. I've already got a shock sticking. It definitely can use the TLR ones I'm sure. They don't come with adjustable lower and upper shock mounts, you have to buy their aluminum ones. Of course everything is on back order. I'm sure when the oil filled diffs come out they won't be cheap. By the time people finally get these running like a 10th scale, they'll be at almost the same price.
Lost my appetite after getting hosed on the pre order now im kinda glad ...its gonna take a big big big sale for me to pick up at this point maybe a used one in 5 years for 100 bucks ya im still prissed 😅oh great vid as always brother sorry about the rant😊
@rcjoe406 Nah I feel your pain. Since the summer until now HH has pissed me off on all of my preorders. Every last one was cancelled. My LHS for the win every time.
@@ReadySetRC definitely local cash in hand product in hand kinda like my other guy lol Amain could learn alot from him 😂 oh well got a awesome mad van ve shipped for 230 still happy 😊

@RCRoads Thank you👍 I really appreciate the support!
Very awesome demo video, definitely considering buying now.
@forrestberger1192 Thanks! Losi did their thing with this.
I just bought one a few days ago, my first Team Losi truck and I love this friggin truck!!!!
This was a great showing of the mini lmt 💪🏾💯
@CoachDRC Thanks Coach💪 It really feels like a shrunk down version of the LMT. They got it right👍
Great review. Buying mini GD for my son tomorrow.

good review.
Cool looking little MT for sure ... nice man 🔥
@kaosr.c Losi is killing it with the scale trucks.
I love mine are those the fly wheel ramps
@corbinmcdaniel612 Yes it is👍

Damn. I'm waiting for mine... been delayed five times now. I'm a bit unsure now reading these comments. Should I cancel the order??
@71dazgee I wouldn't cancel. Still a solid truck overall.

I thought the mini was only 2 wheel drive?
I’ve gotten 2 recently and tried charging the battery’s and they don’t seem to be taking a charge from there original chargers
@andrewblack3748 That's strange. No issues here. Maybe the source you are plugging the USB charger in. I've see that on other RC's.

@fiatfixie4344 Yeah, HH needs to work on the pricing. I haven't had an issue with my shocks sticking. I did have that on the full size LMT.

I think it’s way underpowered and the suspension needs attention too… other than that it’s a nice truck
@CLOSER1313YO Did you drive it outdoors too? Felt underwhelming outdoors.
Ya mine wasn't qc Ed and it was missing parts
@rhealgagnon1460 Missing parts😱
@@ReadySetRC ya no shims in the rear causes it to strip shock bumpers missing on some but have 2 on 1 shock loose motor ..
My back diffs are gone already.. :(
@user-zs6fe2no2z What?
