Team Losi 1/36 Micro-T RTR RC Stadium Truck
Taking RC to every level.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.

Fun in a box!
This thing is a BLAST! Right out of the box it has detailed instructions on many activities including maintenance and adjustments. Everything is included, the only thing you need is your hands and something to open the box with. As expected with any Team Losi kit, it's very good quality and the instructions are top notch. Team Losi says "no sand action" but I disagree. I ran mine in fine dirt and even piles of dust and it's just fine. Clean it regularly and it will be good to go!

As for durability, I have yet to break anything. The steering "turnbuckles" are very thin transparent pieces of plastic and are flimsy. A couple people have reportedly broken these. I have yet to do it but there are numerous ways to fix it including fabricating your own small piece of plastic to replace the stock units. Not hard and I'm sure someone will come out with an aftermarket unit soon if one hasn't been released already. Even if mine had broken I couldn't complain about it. They're easy to...

extreme fun in a box
i did not buy mine from amazon but that shouldn't matter because this is so damn fun i have had many other bigger rc toys that where fun but could only use them in in large areas to have fun. with this thing you can turn your living room, bedroom etc... into the most extreme track or obstacle course that you could not of ever thought possible i even made a couple jumps and a corner quarter pipe which is the most fun of all (you should try) and i have never bin so enter tained in my life
the only problems i have had so far was striping the spur gear and loosing a tiny screw
i suggest getting the the ball bearing's as a good upgrade and stiffer springs. Also if you want more speed and longer run times i suggest you get lipo battery.
And as a very good tip you should order some spare parts that you think you might loose or break (very small parts).
good luck
Small car fun
This tiny truck is fun. It is almost too fast for my small house. Looks a little fragile, but nothing has broken so far. It looks like almost all parts are available for replacement, so no worries even if it does. Running time is about 15 minutes for a 20 min charge, less time if you run it hard. Long enough to have fun, not so long I get bored. It has one minor flaw, you have to take the body off to recharge. The mfr should have made the battery charger easier to connect and/or they should have made it so you can swap out the battery quickly and easily. As it stands it requires taking off the body and then removing a small panel with 2 tiny screws. I guess it saves me money... no point in getting a second battery, to difficult to swap out. Despite my gripes it is very fun and entertaining. It low speeds it has turning radius of about 18" so you don't need much room. With practice and the right surface you can power skid a tighter radius.

Team Losi 1/36 Micro-Desert RC RTR Truck
From the desert sand to the palm of your hand!

This is what RC "toys" should be
The Micro Desert Truck (DT) is almost the exact same vehicle as the Losi Micro-T, so reviews of the Micro-T should also be helpful. There are a couple differences between the models. The DT has a slightly longer wheelbase from a longer chassis, and it sports a roomier battery compartment (you REALLY have to push to get the LiPo battery pack into the Micro-T).

If you're a parent and wondering why you should spend double the price of a Tyco car for this little thing, you should keep several things in mind: it's repairable, rebuildable, and upgradeable. Unlike another RC car that will never get played with once it breaks or stops being fun, the Losi Micro Trucks have replacement parts available at your local hobby store or all over the internet, including here. Everything from the entire gearbox pre-assembled to the spur gears to the differential can be ordered. I don't know if I would call it super-educational, but I do believe that assembling models and kits is a very...

Makes you feel like a kid again!
This is a fun, practical small scale RC. I've had Xmods, Xmods Evolution, Iwaver cars (Mini-Z clone), and Iwaver Monster trucks. The Losi Micro-T is the most fun out of the box. Tile, Carpet, Pavement present no problems for the Micro-T. The suspension on it makes jumping and landing it fun and controllable. It is quick out of the box. The quality level on this is much better than any of the Xmods/Iwavers I had, and it should be as it is more expensive. I would recommend this to any adult or responsible kid. Nothing has broken on mine, but it's entirely possible that something will, if you don't treat it right(Because it is so small). Luckily since Losi is a big name RC company there are full replacement parts available as well as aftermarket hop-ups(upgrades). I have bearings and a Losi Lipo Battery pack on the way!

I highly recommend this!
FUN! bit-sized
I have the Micro T and the DT, both worth the money. First off....the charger is a joke, while I appreciate Losi's IDEA of a portable charger; the thing is junk. One completely fried and the other eats AA batteries and only charges for 10 mins sometimes... Ordered wall chargers.
I run them on carpet and the impacts are not crazy, but they are fast enough to swipe off an arm or wheel in a basement environment.
The DT is the T w/ a extented chassis and geared higher. (I see the torque in the Micro T but they seem to be equal in top speed)

PS. the T runs great with DT tires (Micro REVO)
Fun to mod but, the parts are TINY! beware...

Lots of parts (tires, batteries, bearings, Hop-ups and tracks)

I put mine on a better Transmitter (the stock one is ok w/ fresh batteries)

FUN
