New to R/C and the forum... sharing pics of my new toy...
I'm not really new to R/C, but I haven't had one since I was very young. (used to have RC-10's and Clod Busters) anyway, a few of my friends are into it, and after seeing a friend playing with his new Team Associated mini, I decided to get one. After doing some reading, I chose the Mini-LST. I've only had it 2 days now, and haven't taken it outside. (5" of snow) but I can't wait. Seems pretty quick in stock form. I'm reading all the posts on the brushless motors tho, I may go that route later on. I'm waiting to see how the aftermarket parts selection goes...

waaayyyyyyyy to clean for my liking!!!! lol
Well done on the best choice of 1/18th's!!!! I must say it's the best mini i have owned. Goes over anything! If you can, get the ball diff from MIP and stick it in the centre tranny, and ALMOST lock it(locking it completely makes my gears crunch when i give it full wang!), you will have loads better traction that way. Go in the snow dude!!! I would if it ever snowed here, just make sure you dry it out properly afterwards!! There is another post with someone in the snow with a MLST. Have a look. Most of all HAVE FUN!!!

I just ran my LST with a friends Team Associated mini 18. Only, he had a Mamba 8k motor. WOW. That thing was amazing fast, on the stock battery. I'm looking through all the threads about what motors people are using, and howto upgrade the diffs.
