Dang man, nice.
In the Mini-T, what Kv level is the BL motor?
I bet it's fast...:nod:

It's the Mamba Competition package, 6800kv motor. It's definitely pretty crazy but I'm only running the 7.2v battery packs right now and will be upgrading to the 8.4v sooner or later.

The Mini Inferno will be running the Wraith 7k....eventually, once I buy a new servo, diffs, and Quark 33A esc.

Is Wraith a company?
Or just the name of the motor..?

Honestly, completely stock I was less than impressed. If you plan on upgrading you're better off buying the pro kit or the Mini-B. The stock electronics in the Mini-T are rather retarded due to the combined receiver/esc and the 4 wire servo.

I think you can probably get one cheaper on Ebay, If I remember correctly I paid $95 shipped for mine, and it was brand new.

Yea, better to get the Mini-baja, Its comes with alot more this including a different esc/reciever rechargable battery and charger, metal bearings, a faster motor, 2 sets of rear tires etc. deffentaly worth the extra 50$

i actually just bought a mini-LST and it's insane, sick torque, it runs over anything, great top speed...i wanted to trick it out and get something else for my wife to play around with and i played with a mini baja at my LHS, it was nice...but if the mini-T isn't anything great out of the box, i may hit up a mini-baja =) thanks for letting me know.

I'm using a HS-55 servo in the Mini-T which works fine but will probably get a better one later on, likely a HS-65mg.

No problem. Personally I'm not a fan of the Baja body style but I imagine it is a pretty easy fix to switch it over to a Mini-T body, and the extra options the Baja comes with are worth the extra money.

Nothing much new on this, just decided to post some pics of the new tx/rx that I put in the Mini-T.

It's a JR XS3 Pro and RS310 receiver.

Also had to mount the switch for the Mamba because it was only attached with servo tape before so it wasn't all that secure.

The JR XR3i and R135 receiver will be going into the Mini Inferno when I finish buying everything I need to change it over to brushless.

Thanks Donzii (somehow I knew you'd post here :D )

Have you had any luck in finding a new radio system? I know you were looking into one.

My section, of course I'd have something to say. Plus, it is a truely beautiful radio and I'd steal it from you any day. :lol:

Cowboy has sent me multiple links thru PM and tried to sort me out with a few guys, but those have all fallen through. He's in the market for parts to his Futaba radio (2.4GHz package/addon/whatever) and may sell me his old Spektrum DX2 for an exeptional price. :)

Yep, BLT is right, I have the electric Mini Inferno. There is also a nitro version which runs a Sirio 09 (1.5cc) engine.

I'd actually like to pick one of these up as well.
