Hi guys.

I really want to get a mini rock crawler for my desk ( work in a pretty relaxed office).

I am thinking of a 1/24 scale. Problem is I have NO IDEA where to start looking and what sort of money.

Can someone help?

You have a few options here.

1. You can get a Losi Trail Trekker RTR on ebay for $150.

2. Or you can get into a bidding war on ebay for a used Losi Micro Crawler. They go for about $100

But be warned. If you go for the Micro Crawler make sure it says RTR and not BnD. Im not sure if your completly familiar with all the terms so Ill just help you quick.

RTR: Ready To Run. This means you get everything in one box to make the car work and need nothing else.

BnD: Bind and Drive. This means the car requires a Spektrum transmitter. Spektrum transmitters are pretty expensive (more then the car itself) and since the car wont be used for anything extreme (mostly due to its size) you dont really need to go crazy with spending one one. It will just make you wish you had a large scale one instead.

Hope this helped. Feel free to ask any more questions.
