I have a mini DT and stock its just a tad faster than the regular Micro t. I put in the 2s lipo and it was much quicker, with better run time. Def a nice upgrade. I dont use it anymore so if you wanna pick one up with a lipo a bit cheaper than buying new than shoot me a PM.

I don't know how fast the Mini-DT is in stock form, but if the speed isn't fast enough for you a $15 motor will give you speed that should satisfy you if the stock motor doesn't. I know you said you don't want to spend money on accessories, but I'm just letting you know that option is there.

12 hours??????????????????????? man!! i hate how they give you such horrible chargers in the box. does anyone know where i can get a quick charger ??? thanks
#9
oh i just found one on amazon for $15

It is disappointing that they put such horrible chargers in RTR packages, but this is obviously to keep the price down.
One of the best investments you can make in this hobby is a quality charger. I'm not sure what you're getting for $15, but make sure it has a higher charging rate than the stock charger.

Losi makes/made a simple peak detection charger for 5/6 cells it is blue and sells for around $15.....That charger is really only good for Losi mini packs
(2/3 aa).

If the lipo becomes over discharged you ruin it and the lipo can possibly catch fire when you try to charge it.

thanks so what u mean is that i could just buy the losi lipo and not have to replace anything? and if i bought a different brand lipo i would have to replace something? i was probably going to buy a losi 1 anyway
also does any1 know what type of batt the truck comes with???
thanks again
