Here's a place for us to talk about these fun little trucks

Seek and Destroy

Theres been one, it is like 20 pages back. Not many people have one, I do.

rc_flyer428

yeah, i figured it would be better to start a new one than to revive the one from months ago. I wish that we could get more people to understand how much fun these little trucks are. I remember when they first came out, i thought they were cool but a bunch of people on the forums werew saying that they looked like something from radio shack and we know thats totally untrue.

No please don't... revive the old one... ever heard of bandwith?

rc_flyer428

ok, i'll remember that next time.

Seek and Destroy

I think they are loads of fun. But I wish they had all of the aluminum that the mzm has. mines in peices right now, needs a servo and some other parts. It was a lot of fun when I had it. I wish it worked so I could drive it on my track right after it rained and get it all muddy.[>:]

rc_flyer428

lol, yeah my dads needs a servo too, i'm going to order it sometime this week so we can run them again.

Any ways ytou cant say im stupid i have one! It is a good intro to the hobby.

rc_flyer428

i dont want to start a fuss but how in the world can you possible say that the mini mauler looks like a radio shack truck!?!? Do radio shack trucks have lexan bodies, upgrade/replacement parts, I DON"T THINK SO. And there has never been and never will be a radio shack truck as fast, durable, or fun as the mini mauler.

The pro pulse will be faster, should be durable, and should be fun. But it costs more....

Got one for the kids xmass looks like it will break soon but for the price it looks good for an intro.

rc_flyer428

just what do you plan to do when your pro-pulse breaks and you have to fix it?

HI ! I just ordered one of these cuties for my 8 yrs old daughter. I was more willing to go for the mini-lxt from losi ( higher priced indeed but so cool and reminiscent of my old JR-X2 from yrs ago...) Are these trucks durable? I saw the video on rc universe and hobby zone and they seem to be. I ordered the bearings and pinion set so i could change gear ratios...You think its worth it ?

Tank you ( By the way i got 2 rc planes from hobby zone and park zone and im satisfied )

rc_flyer428

yeah these trucks are really durable for their size. They aint gonna stand the abuse you can throw at a 1/10 scale monster truck or anything but they will handle alot. Me and my dad have 2 of these little trucks and when we run them they constantly plow into each other and the only parts that have broke were the steering servos.

Hi rc flyer428 ! Thank you for your answer. I was wonderong if the different colors of the trucks mean they are on different frequencies ? maybe if it is so fun i would buy one for myself and race with my doughter. Since I live in Canada and it is winter here, i was thinking of building and outside ice track so we could have some (cold) fun !!!

By the way, since your name is erc flyer, i assume you got rc planes. What are they ? My daughter has a hobby zone freedom, and i have a park zone f-27 stryker, a century hawk .30 glow heli ( new, will try it sometimes this spring), a great plane spectra electric sailplane, and a couple of glow airplanes. Wow, sounds a lot when you list them that way !!
