Default My New Mini Baja! Tons of Pictures

Well I was originaly going to get the Mini T but when I got to my LHS I saw the Baja. It was such a good deal for only 40 dollars more. I mean you get the upgraded electronics (synthesised radio system, seperate esc and reciever), hotter moter, oil-filled shocks, and two sets of tires. I was very surprised about the quickness of this truck right out of the box. It was prety insane! I am very happy about this purchase and hope to buy hop-ups in the near future. Which brings me to the question: What, in your opinion, would be the best motor for torque and mid power that would work with stock electronics. Or a pinion - motor combo that would give me the best of both scenerios. Also i was wondering if you could use LIPO batteries with the stock set-up. Anyway, here are some of my pictures while I was waiting for the batteries to charge.























Ontop of my Traxxas Rustler 1/10

those trucks look so nice i think those rims look so cool better than allmost any other rim and do you have a choice between paddle tires and normal dirt tires when you buy it

Yes, they are a little thicker, and they are oil filled as well. The stock oil filled shocks on my truck are kind of cheap, as they were leaking even after my first run, IN THE LIVING ROOM! lol

on the question of if you can run lipos, yes you can. if you run a 2s lipo you are running at close to the same voltage as the original battery. also you will get a higher discharge rate with the lipos.
