HorizonRC.com Event - iHobby 2009 - Losi Micro HIGHroller

[ma19921992]

Do the tires fit the micro t?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@ma19921992 I believe so.

[RCtruckKID1]

4x4 high roller who's with me.

[thebakuman77]

i just bought one...ran it once and something came broke motor the reciever or speed control and it says in the manual they assure you the it will work one time thats their warranty it will work once

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@thebakuman77 I would recommend you give our product support staff a call at 877-504-0233.

[thebakuman77]

@HorizonRCdotCom My dad ended up calling and a little while ago. the motor is broken im being sent an new one. I hope i get it soon. =) Before the motor broke it was a blast!!! its super fun. Do you recomend aluminum upgrades. Like a a arms or oil filled shock, or a brushless motor?

[stuvy72]

do you know if i could use the shocks from this car on my dt to raise the height?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@stuvy72 The shocks are the same so the ride height wouldn't change.

[rthao008]

make the high roller 4x4 with aluinum thred shocks

[Highroller188]

Which atomic bb motor is best 1 , 2 ?

Can i run a 7 , 4 180 mah 2 s lipo ( + bb motor ) in a stock micro highroller ? Plz reply

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@Highroller188 I am not familiar with BB, sorry.

[stuvy72]

Can't wait till I get the micro desert truck for my birthday. :)

[Robc1582]

i want to buy one of the micros but i want to upgrade it to all aluminum and i can only find parts for the micro t will any of those parts fit the high roller or micro dt?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@Robc1582 Many of the parts will cross over like the C-Hubs, rear hub carriers and A-Arms. However the shock tower in the front is different between the Micro-T and the DT and I think both the front and rear towers are different on the Micro HIGHroller. 

[Robc1582]

@HorizonRCdotCom what about the chassis, and transmission/gear covers and motor holder ? i would like to upgrade everything on a high roller but if thats not possible i'll just get the micro t

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@Robc1582 Chassis is absolutely different between those three. Gear cover I think is the same.

[Bigbbiker]

Hi I've seen you reviews on both of these trucks but do you think that the high roller micro or the micro rally car is better if I'm going to beat the crap out of it I want off road and I'm probably going to upgrade to lipo

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@Bigbbiker Each vehicle will have their limits that you can/will reach depending on how hard you hammer it. They're both excellent trucks and we've had fun with both of them.

[Kdragonlaser]

I wanna be there!!! Rob that place!

[bigdaddy0995]

will the raminator tires fit on this truck

[bigdaddy0995]

what is the estimated price to convert the high roller to the brushless system?

[bigdaddy0995]

which has a longer run time the micro t or the micro highroller?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@bigdaddy0995 The Micro HIGHroller has a higher capacity battery which should yield longer runtimes.

[addeduktree]

Would Micro-T/Micro Baja/Micro Desert Truck/Micro Adjustable Threaded Shock Set Assembly be good? It says it fits, so would be be better for Jumping (its what i want to do with this) and, is there any where that tells me how i can install properly?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@lmisswa It's actually been discontinued.

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@TheAtc110rider Yes, just make sure you clean it out well between runs. If it's like sugar sand I wouldn't recommend it though, that stuff is too tiny and can get into everything.

[Gtrx0998]

Horizon Hobby, wouldn't it be interesting if you made a Micro Rally car?

[bmad222]

Looks cool but about how long does it take to charge? I heard about 1 hour but im not sure if its true or not

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@bmad222 About 30-45 minutes, depending on how much charge the battery has to it.

[TheR3D1611]

what would make it go faster a lipo or a brushless thank plz reply plz plz

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@TheR3D1611 Either would make it faster.

[TheR3D1611]

um i really wanna get a 300 mah lipo for it but would i hav to get da lipo charger or can i just use the 1 my high roller came with

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@TheR3D1611 Absolutely not!!! That is a dangerous proposition right there, sure to start a fire!!!! Never charge a LiPo battery with anything but a LiPo charger!

[westsidewarrior6]

i want them tomake aluinumfront body mount and rear shock towers......

[TheR3D1611]

would i hav to change the conecters from the battery to the speed controller last Q i swear plz reply THANKS

[TheR3D1611]

sorry for another comment but can u reccomend a speed controller plz reply !!!!!!!! thanks so much

[HorizonRCdotCom]

The 1/36 Xcelorin 10250Kv Brushless Combo includes the ESC and the motor

[TheR3D1611]

would i hav to change over the the speed controller pls reply !!!!!!!! thanks

[HorizonRCdotCom]

To go brushless? Yes

[TheR3D1611]

can u recomend a fast brushless for dis plz reply i beg u!!!!!!!

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@TheR3D1611 The 1/36 Xcelorin 10250Kv Brushless Combo would be about the fastest you could put in there.

[cesar11duran]

its expensive

[boni12314]

i was watching the tv in the backk lol go traxxas and losi wooo

[Rm125m]

just got oil filled shocks from itegy (micro models) but not sure what oil it uses can i use my regular silicone shock oil from my other models cant really find and anserw anywhere online to me it shouldnt really matter

[HorizonRCdotCom]

I'd use 15-20wt Losi shock oil

[mrmattd13]

wat is good type of shock to put in dis lil beast?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

I don't know, I haven't seen any really good micro oil filled shocks from anyone as of yet.

[joku5150]

What is a good brushless motor you could put in to hop this little guy up? I haven't received mine yet, but I want to go with LiPo's and the brushless set up in the near future with it. Thanks for the review!

[HorizonRCdotCom]

The Xcelorin units are really nice and develop a ton of power.

[trx1961]

my total was $108.47 not a bad price, and it runs pretty well

[KTMBOY1112]

I know this is random, but I want my traxxas bandit to go faster and better which should I get mamba max 5700 or VXL system.

Please Answer!

[HorizonRCdotCom]

I haven't run either system so I really couldn't tell you.

[Leprechaun79]

VXL system. It's more reliable. I just put one in mine. Anything with more power would just be rediculos since it is only

2wd.

[cheesexxballs]

would u recommend brushless in this

[HorizonRCdotCom]

If you're looking for more speed, power and runtime, yes.

[KTMBOY1112]

Can I run a lipo battery in it stock?

please Answer!

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Yes you can. However keep in mind the extra voltage will wear the motor out quicker.

[KTMBOY1112]

O well I'll just by another motor there not that much

[stampedevxl]

i agree

[dumbbroadcasts]

you should make a micro short course truck

[Xmoto16]

1/18 is the smallest right now

[EndoCloudz]

also with a brushless motor

[Xmoto16]

@dumbbroadcasts yeah ur wish came true

[TraxxasRustlerKing]

@dumbbroadcasts Done.

[chrisbooby]

k im twelve i dont know what u mean but i guess ill just ask u the ? i was going to ask him......... what do u have to do to be a rc spokes person for A company nothing imparticular coment soon

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Well, the guys like Keith, Rich, John Diniz and everyone we have in our videos works with us at Horizon Hobby. As far as how to get into the industry, part of it is being a good racer or flyer but having a strong engineering and/or design background is just as, if not more, important. Being an ambassador for the hobby with those around you, at the track or flying field is also extremely important. My advice- Take science, physics, geometry, algebra and Trigonometry in school.
