-fm receiver
-full bearings
-oil shocks
-370 size motor
-4wd
-upgradable/replaceable


Also, before people start saying its a copy of the rc18t. Its more inspired. Look closely and actually has some advantages.
-Separate upper deck
-Bellcrank steering
-Better spring servo saver.

Quality though for ~100.. Who knows.

Status: offline 		Its rc18 and even Blade inspired. Really, look closely. It not built exactly the same *unlike the rodeo. Your totally being unfair because all you know is the rc18 (so anything that looks like it thus must be a copy)

As per adjustability it says in their site, they will be offering adjustable turnbuckles (overpriced Im sure to make up for the low intro price)

Status: offline 		The older mini t still has no separate electronics, no full bearings, and no oil shocks stock. This does for a tiny bit more.

Status: offline 		Ok tell me what is exactly the same as the rc18. Please. Seriously. You know the only part that might fit is the servo clamp between the two. Jeez, your all stating this without even seeing the two in person (no I havent either, but I am looking very closely).

Status: offline 		Yea, seriously. We should wait until we can at least see it. But there are apparent differences right away which is tiffing me off that people just claim a copy without really looking.

Whatever the case may be, it will be good to attracting more people to our class.
