c0sie Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 get a mini-t pro from www.modelsinmotion.co.uk for £113.00 postage is free..bargain. The Mini-T Pro features Oil-Filled Aluminum Racing Shock Absorbers The included dual disk slipper is designed to handle hot modified motors and high-power batteries Ball bearings are used throughout reducing drag and increasing run time A heavy-duty ball differential allows more adjustability and increases performance Speed Motor supplies improved acceleration and top speed Genuine MIP CVDs offer excellent performance, tight tolerances and high quality Titanium turnbuckles used for upper camber and steering links Tne Mini-T Pro includes a stylish clear, pre-trimmed body Almost-Ready-to-Run so there is no building necessary, just install your radio gear, ESC, battery, paint the body and go. Radio, batteries & Speedo Required to complete. you can get a cheap futaba m330cr esc(?) copy off ebay for £20..ive just ordered one. you can get a graupner speed 300 motor for around £9.00 from your hobby shop. you can get a set of batterys from www.unitedrc.com cheaper than uk prices and they are probably the best you can buy (get the Xtreme packs) paint is a £5 tops.

4x4 freak Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 ZK-2 - £89.99 from RC Direct. So Much better then the Mini T. It whoops the Mini T's Ass all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0sie Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 std mini-t yes, but not the mini-t pro but yes the zk2 totally rules and i loved it whilst i had it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4 freak Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 std mini-t yes, but not the mini-t pro but yes the zk2 totally rules and i loved it whilst i had it! ← It comes a Damm Close 2nd to the Mini T Pro and with a Few Hopups of its Own (To Bring it inline with the Cost of a RTR Mini T Pro) it would beat it Pretty easy i think. Man its such an Amazing Truck. Great For Long Wheelies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamiyacowboy Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 would like to see it whoop my mini t's ass lol 8000kv of power at my finger tips if i want it lol mini t will only wheelie a good distance if A. it has a wheelie bar B. its got one hot curry breathing motor in it EG: mamba or other brushless sytem in TC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you did the same to a ZK2 it would be so so Much Better. And you would not need to do half of it cause its so strong and got most fetures anyway.

philipalli Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 difference is that the zk-2 is a monster truck (micro) and the mini-t is a stadium truck (micro) that's like saying whats the xxx-t is like compared to a savage although i want a zk-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c0sie Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 the zk2 is the monstor truck style. the zt2 is the stadium truck. i have not seen a zt2 ANYWHERE on the planet mind you if you can afford to get the mini-t pro and add your own electrics i would do that. if you only want an rtr id have to say that either will be fine.. if you pm me ill send you a link to a hopped up zk2 that one of my users currently owns. its sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monstrous Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 get a graupner speed 300, i have one running on an 8.4V pack (which i reccomend you buy from maxamps) and it is ballistic, and its only £9, just get a cheap micro esc off ebay, and a hitec HS-55 or if you want more speed and power (but a bit of dremelling) get a HS-81MG Monstrous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0sie Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 get your batterys from www.unitedrc.com (email Jon there, tell him Cris from UK-MicroRC sent you. There are the number one place for cells and cheaper than UK prices by miles) if you want a brushless mamba set up (motor and esc) get that from www.unitedrc.com aswell. if you want a cheap brushed esc get a futaba MC330CR, it can handle above a 300 sized esc which is better. a speed 300 motor is an awesome improvement over the std motor, like Monstorous said, about £9 from a lhs. either that or the K3 tuned motor from UnitedRC. Get a VERY small reciever. I use a futaba R142JE which is 40mhz AM for me. that should be your lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Why does it need a wheelie bar to mak it wheelie? this may sound stupid but i obviously dont know the answer. Also could you please tell me which motor is better the graupner speed 300 or the Team Orion Baja motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0sie Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 you dont need a wheelie bar to wheelie, they will just stop you from flipping the truck most of the time. id say go for the speed 300 cos of the price..ive never used the other motor though.. hth.
