This is what RC "toys" should be
By J. Veitch
The Micro Desert Truck (DT) is almost the exact same vehicle as the Losi Micro-T, so reviews of the Micro-T should also be helpful. There are a couple differences between the models. The DT has a slightly longer wheelbase from a longer chassis, and it sports a roomier battery compartment (you REALLY have to push to get the LiPo battery pack into the Micro-T).If you're a parent and wondering why you should spend double the price of a Tyco car for this little thing, you should keep several things in mind: it's repairable, rebuildable, and upgradeable. Unlike another RC car that will never get played with once it breaks or stops being fun, the Losi Micro Trucks have replacement parts available at your local hobby store or all over the internet, including here. Everything from the entire gearbox pre-assembled to the spur gears to the differential can be ordered. I don't know if I would call it super-educational, but I do believe that assembling models and kits is a very enriching experience for both children and adults. There are also modifications available that range from carbon fiber and aluminum chassis parts to Lithium Polymer batteries and brushless motors. The internet is full of forums and videos of great things people have done with these.Pros:* Finally, an RC stadium truck that actually looks like a stadium truck* Comes with EVERYTHING to get started, even batteries* Can be repaired, rebuilt, and upgraded* If your kid stops playing with it, then it's yours!* Uses normal size AM 27Mhz transmitter/receiver crystals, so you can switch channelsCons:* Short run time with included battery* Charger is powered by AA batteries. A wall charger is available separately.* It is REALLY small! A #00 Philips screwdriver and tweezers will be needed to do any work on it

This is a fun, practical small scale RC. I've had Xmods, Xmods Evolution, Iwaver cars (Mini-Z clone), and Iwaver Monster trucks. The Losi Micro-T is the most fun out of the box. Tile, Carpet, Pavement present no problems for the Micro-T. The suspension on it makes jumping and landing it fun and controllable. It is quick out of the box. The quality level on this is much better than any of the Xmods/Iwavers I had, and it should be as it is more expensive. I would recommend this to any adult or responsible kid. Nothing has broken on mine, but it's entirely possible that something will, if you don't treat it right(Because it is so small). Luckily since Losi is a big name RC company there are full replacement parts available as well as aftermarket hop-ups(upgrades). I have bearings and a Losi Lipo Battery pack on the way!I highly recommend this!

I have the Micro T and the DT, both worth the money. First off....the charger is a joke, while I appreciate Losi's IDEA of a portable charger; the thing is junk. One completely fried and the other eats AA batteries and only charges for 10 mins sometimes... Ordered wall chargers.I run them on carpet and the impacts are not crazy, but they are fast enough to swipe off an arm or wheel in a basement environment.The DT is the T w/ a extented chassis and geared higher. (I see the torque in the Micro T but they seem to be equal in top speed)PS. the T runs great with DT tires (Micro REVO)Fun to mod but, the parts are TINY! beware...Lots of parts (tires, batteries, bearings, Hop-ups and tracks)I put mine on a better Transmitter (the stock one is ok w/ fresh batteries)FUN
