1:36 Micro Desert Truck
This arrived in todays mail. Very nice tiny model indeed. Great fun inside when the weather is not being agreeable for running the 1:10's outside.
No plans to modify it beyond a set of bearings and the wheel nut conversion. May even mod the steering links if too many of the standard ones keep breaking on me.
It looks almost the same as the TA02 F-150 Truck with DF01 suspension I just built in 1:10 scale.
The cat thinks it's a fun game. She can't catch the the Beetle one I have with all it's upgrades but she can catch this one. Driving through swinging paws adds to the fun as opposed to laughing at the cat trying to catch the Beetle.
Comments always welcome. :D
Tiny beside a Tamiya tool.
Nice detail for a small RTR truck.
Tyres look like mini CC01 and are very soft rubber

@Jez: Go check the movies of the Beetle and Falcon in my movies page. Stock speed from the Falcon and Hopup speed and wheelies from the Beetle.

are they any good standard?watched the vids,really like the baja.been thinking of getting one for indoors too.

@bfst24: They go pretty good standard. A full set of bearings makes the runtime and speed a touch better. The optional 7.4v Li-Po battery that Losi sells makes them fly (Beetle is on 7.4v). They have a great video on the Losi site of the standard one running.
