Team Losi 1/18 Dodge Raminator
Looks like another version of the mlst....
Official Press Release:
Styled and detailed after the unstoppable full-scale competitor, the Losi 1/18 Raminator is built, painted and detailed to look just like the real thing. The licensed truck even includes scale two-tone wheels and monster truck tires that enhance the realistic look, giving you the chance to drive your own monster truck anytime you want.
And to make sure that the 1/18 Raminator is as powerful and durable as a monster truck should be, it’s built on Losi’s proven, rock-solid mini 4WD chassis and drivetrain. The durable dual-deck aluminum chassis and wide-track suspension make the Raminator incredibly stable, while oil-filled composite shocks at all four corners help smooth out the rough stuff. Power comes from a high-torque Frenzy motor, which can even be upgraded to a dual motor setup for even more torque on tap. Complete ball bearings ensure smooth operation, and twin steering servos make for razor-sharp handling.
Combined with the included synthesized radio system, battery pack and charger, the 1/18 Raminator is an incredible-looking and powerful mini monster truck that’s completely ready to run. Charge up, install the included AA batteries in the transmitter and get ready to crush the neighborhood.

Yep. I'm not sure the reasoning behind releasing this one!

Although I think I understand Losi's reasoning behind this release, I don't think it will pay-off like losi expects. I think they are canibalizing their own market share with this truck.

They reasoning, as I've said before, is that the brains in the operation are gone, only the corporate marketing people are left, and they are bleeding the name dry

RE: Team Losi 1/18 Dodge Raminator
Just log in, it's pretty easy.
I can't wait for the Mega Raminator! Or maybe, the Mega T, or Micro LST. Pretty much scal up or down aany losi product, then stick any available bodyu on it and call them all something different, without every rasing the quality or innovating anything new and you have Losi of today, It's a shame.

I want someone to come out with a 1/10 scale electric monster truck with the battery in the middle and with only 4 shocks!

Wouldn't that be a Wheely King?
