earthling1984 please let me choose an rc car of urs then you can send it to me

[Tommyhonda100]

The brushed system doesn't have lipo cut off.so does the lipo have one in side the battery?

[earthling1984]

@Tommyhonda100 just drive for like 7 to 10mins then recharge, no problems.

[ninga123if]

is it a 4 wheel drive

[earthling1984]

@ninga123if no 2 wheel drive

[ninga123if]

@earthling1984 thanks

[RcBoy2000]

he kinda looks like nickelback

[MrGeorgeWins]

Can you link where you got the Lipos and charger?

[earthling1984]

@MrGeorgeWins check horizon hobby website, look up the micro desert truck, then look at 'hop ups' and 'optional accessories'

[camvortable]

[unstopablenavyseal]

[smokeycheeze]

[earthling1984]

@smokeycheeze hi

[TrichbeeT]

@smokeycheeze hehe i like that movie.

[rthao008]

losi should make a smaller sct....like a 2wd one

[rcrules14]

@rthao008 on "the toyz" they sell a sct body for the micro dt

[rthao008]

which one is better?micro t,micro desert, or the micro crawler

[earthling1984]

@rthao008 they are all different and I can't really say one is better. they are made for different types of driving.

[casinoboy13]

You are a team losi fan or?

[p8ntballer091]

After looking up some prices. The prices are almost the same on some parts.

Canadian and US.

[p8ntballer091]

Do you still have this truck? And do you still use it?

I want to get one (Have to talk to the wife....lol), And on the Losi website the hop-up parts are cheaper than the parts on my Canadian websites i check out and some are out of stock.

[earthling1984]

@p8ntballer091 yes. Yes. Damn that sucks

[7coolaznkid]

how long does that run

[earthling1984]

@7coolaznkid about 10mins

[SouthLondonYouth]

How fast is it stock

[earthling1984]

@SouthLondonYouth probably like 10 mph or so with nimh battery.

[dropdeadST]

i got my sct and my desert truck is fixed!! the funny thing is that my stock dt is faster then my stock sct but i am going to get a lipo battery for my sct tomorrow

[dropdeadST]

great video. I used to have a red micro DT but just last week i left it out when i went to school and my labrador chewed it up. My local hobby shop told me to bring it in so they can try to fix it. I really hope they can. My dad felt bad so he orderd me a Losi micro SCT!!! thanks dad. keep posting.

[earthling1984]

@dropdeadST sorry about your micro DT but that is awesome you got a SCT on the way!

[jackuserjack]

8:55 was that a ghost car driving with your car?

[earthling1984]

@jackuserjack yes lol

[gundam395]

can it go offroad?

[earthling1984]

@gundam395 on loose dirt, gravel, or sand yes it can... but higher offroad, such as grass, will catch/stopp it.

[gundam395]

@earthling1984 Thanks. I have seen people say your not suppose to take in sand cus it will jam the gears.

[earthling1984]

@gundam395 that is kind of true, you do have to be careful and clean it very well aftwords if you drive in sand.

[awinski999]

i had the buggy i loved that thing. good thing i only bought the better motor and batteries cuzz one day while i was at school my dog ate it. literally. that thing was soooo much fun. it was faster than my golf cart on the road

[187SOCALKID187]

make sure you dont drive on any beds because it strips the differential anyways good video!!

[MrCF545]

I wish i had the money to buy some rc's. All of my friends have them so i have driven them. I love the desert truck. I want one!

[shoopwhoopX]

"in tha bawks"

[hi126101]

i saw a penny on ur desk! its my lucky day!

[pimpinpenz]

i have a charger that charges any type of battery Lipo Nicad any type like nihm all of em its a digital one. this is a really nice car especially for the size

[sebasitsme]

after a while the battery of mine only last 1 min and takes 20 min to charge

[earthling1984]

@sebasitsme the 'stock' nimh battery only lasted about 5mins for me on maiden drive. I took it out after the first drive and used a 300mah lipo battery. Run time was about 10mins.

[sebasitsme]

@earthling1984 And how long does it take to charge the lippo?

[earthling1984]

@sebasitsme 45mins to 1 hour.

[MrPSPGamer]

@earthling1984

hi, within the next month im looking to purchase this, the Losi micro Desert Truck and after i have it for a while, i would like to upgrade it and get a lipo 7.4v. Would this be too much for the motor to take and burn it out. would i have to buy a brushless with a lipo? Thanks. btw, nice video 5*

[earthling1984]

@MrPSPGamer The lipo is just fine on the motor(2cell). There are 3cell lipos available for this car also, but those should only be used with a brushless motor. The 2cell lipo is just fine for the stock motor. Also, when you get the 2cell lipo, I would recommend getting the ball bearing set and threated axle set. The threaded axle set allows the wheels to come off/on easy, and the bearing set reduces stress/friction and keeps the motor and ESC cooler, which is good when running the 2s lipo.

[rcrules1]

I didnt get any spacers with my micro dt i got an extra set of e clips that hold on the tires

[earthling1984]

@rcrules1 that is what they are actually. Just had it wrong.

[fatymicfaty]

iv got the mini desert truck its ok at times im gonna try for the mini revos and stuff

[iissyy123]

7:57 and 8:56 lol

[iissyy123]

@iissyy123 8:52 not 8:56

[iissyy123]

real quick 10 mins lol

[Drewski22101]

Nice vid. I'm probably gonna get one of those soon they look like a lot of fun!!

[batmancrap753]

omg you get like 2 new rc cars or planes every week how can u afford all of it?

[Pilotsofer]

looks pretty cool. it would make a nice gift for anyone :)

[dingo7222]

I was wondering when you would get one

[GetBlitzified]

Micros are actually pretty awesome for there size, i know my friend has one and he built an awesome mini off road track in his basement and it is awesome! But those body clips are a pain!

[earthling1984]

@GetBlitzified Thanks for the comment! It is a lot of fun, just wish I had more floor space in my house ;p I'll have to setup a track outside on the street soon :)

O, and losi has NEW(not yet released) 1/24 size FOUR WHEEL DRIVE RC cars coming out at end of August! There is a rally car and short course truck, both 4wd! I can't wait for those, they look really nice!
