I'm going to refrain from buying one of these....not falling into the "20 RC cars at one time" trap again :P

I used to have 20, and I couldnt afford that many PLUS a 1:1 scale car at the same time ;)

Bah, who needs an RC18T when ya got a hopped Mini-T anyway? ;0
James

I wouldnt want an RTR minizilla, I'd go minus the electronics kit...
if your gonna get RC18t, get the factory team, still $260 a kit.
if you've got a mini-T with hop ups, I dont know why you'd want an RC18t anyway... apart from maybe just trying something different. :)
I see there's an RC18MT now (monster truck) sheesh.

Nah, dont want RC18MT...I want something that will utilize my LiPo 8000kv Brushless motor without doing wheelstands when I touch the throttle...I'm inclined towards on road stuff too ;)

*ahem*...my M18 /*ahem*
James

justo's M18 f0 sh0.
but if I go 1/18th on-road, I'll go a BRP racing kit... so i can race em at ryper (they've ordered 30, pre sold 20, I'd say it's gonna be huge).. they also fit standard size radio gear (inc standard size servo), etc... hrmmm
M18 damn nice though

im going to try my mini-r out hopefully over the weekend with the mamba and a 3 cell lipo.
hopefully get some footage of it.
for $90 they are a f-king excellent buy...
oh by coincidence... i have a brand new one sitting at home in its box for sale :P

The 18T won't wheel stand. Being 4wd, and with an inline motor, the torque isn't sufficient. The mini-t's transverse motor is what makes it wheelstand.
James

the mini't's transverse motor allows you to land jumps better, surely, using the motor as a gyro, as per 1/10 racing....
inline motors were designed for road r/c :)
as for the BRP racing 1/18th on-road cars, all cars sold are sold to racers who will be racing them at ryper, as far as I know...
kit from $90 to $130.
