Mini R/C Cars | The Good & Bad

from where Im from, some parts or upgrades for 1/24 crawlers are priced pretty close to a 1/10 which put me off. The price is not proportionate to the scale 🙄🙄

Bigger is better. Minis are for kiddies

I have both i have a traxxas slash as my go to basher and a trx4m as a mini indoor fun car and i build a little crawler track in my backyard to also play with it outside

Biggest waste of money I've ever made in RC and you can barely give the damn things away let alone sell them.

I'm not too worried about space, but I love mini crawlers. The fact that if it starts to rain and/or you don't want to be outside anymore, you can just bring it inside and do the same kinda stuff without worrying about space.

That was a great video, but every time he say "low energy dense" I cringed a little

The best one is the Amazon ae86 red

I have four 1/24 scale crawlers and love them. They are easy to pack away in the camper when my wife and I head up to the mountains.

My favorite rc ever is the losi mini b

what’s that protek rc bag called

I own a Losi 5ive-T 1/5th scale, and I'm considering picking up an SCX24. It just goes to show there really is no "wrong" answer here.

I feel like you missed a couple really great options for smaller scale goodies. Losi 1/16 drag car. (Might not have been out yet) or the WL Toys or MJX brands. I really wish the brick and mortar stores in this country would support those brands.

im very surprised you didnt mention the mini TRX4 as an option. I assume there's some issues with it?

To be honest .. my kids and I are enjoying building the indoor dinosaur dirt course for our mini crawlers is ALOT more enjoyable. The concept of having fun indoors and outdoors is what’s makes it for me . Today was 107 degrees outside and we didn’t care , indoor crawl baby !

Good information. Thanks !

I'm surprised you didn't recommend charging bags. Piece of mind for a couple bucks.

Can race on an actual track in my house. That alone sold me on micro.

Mini's seem like they would be far more popular and common in Japan than the U.S.A. What scale mini is the most popular/common in these two nations with the most aftermarket support and hop up parts? Thanks

I have an orlandoo hunter 1/32 scale crawler. Just threw it in my back pack on a trip to Utah and had a blast just hiking around and pulling it out while taking breaks.

But, the tiny screws!!!😢

Mini rcs.... the tiny screws that get stripped out so easy 😢 learned the hardway on my 1st rc trx4m changing almost everythung for fun until a screw gets stripped

Mini 1/24 hard body replicas our favorite plastic model kits of the 1960's and 70's would be awesome. Something to build a shelf display with. Put em in the $100 range and the industry would be on to something if they aren't already with mini 1/24 indoor crawlers.

one thing about the charging prozes is yes, its a whole lot easier to just plug it into the usb wire, but ive almost blown up two lipos using it before (nothing happened dw) so i 100% recommend getting a real proper safety charger if the tiny car is something for you

Love mini RCs. I have quite a few. The biggest problem for me is that their bounce on suspensions are not as realistic as the bigger ones.

Thank you!

No Mini Trek or Carisma 1/24 cars? What gives??

What was the red Tacoma shown in the video driving on the desk?

Mini/micros are the best!!!😉😁👍🤙✌ its just too bad it takes a lot to mod them since companies dont help with aftermarket stuff if u want to power up!

I started with the larger scale cars but since went down to the minis. Just like you said, it came down to the environment. We race in my garage so 1/24s are the right size. Plus, I was buying all the cars they were using 😊.

what is the mini rc @ 41 seconds?

The only thing I have done with minis is stripping diffs but they may just because of it being a glacier and not having many to any upgrades

alot of this expecially the battery part is FALSE ive seen a 400mah 3s pack burn an entire garage down to the ground !!! MAH DOESD NOT MATTER AT ALL ONCE PACK EXPLODES OR SHORTS A FIRE IS A FIRE A CHEMICAL FIRE IS A CHEMICAL FIRE!!!!!!!!

MY first mini RC Car is the Kyosho Mini Z Buggy and its fantastic especially when the weather is bad.

The mini rc cars costs more than other rcs

Why would you want one?.... because they are soooo cuuuute 🥰

Theodore “Beaver” Cleaver grew up and is meow enjoying modern technology!

Like anything, I prefer high quality and don't mind high cost. Minis are great, though. I got rid of all regular sized RCs. My mini collection is still under the cost of one trx4 defender....... Well, before the mod tab gets added of course!

My experience so far my 1/18 crawler seems better than my 1/10 with reliability. The 1/10 always has something wrong usually an axle shaft or slipper clutch. But I had to upgrade the 1/18 diffs to metal because the plastic stripped almost instantly.

I get a small toy rc car for forst time in life and even these is a toy i already enjoy it inside my house.

HEY.....dont order parts from these people!!!!.....it will take you a month to get them!!!

Amain hobbies 👎🏻

Mini rc's aren't expensive you say? Hardly, they're addictive & after buying one, you won't stop! Then the upgrades come & on it goes...less money in the bank, more smiles on the face :)

A main straight to the point thank you

I drove my trx4m along the bottom of a swimming pool, still works great 2 years later

Awesome. I am looking for a mini R/C that has controllable speed or an out of the box slower speed. Any recs here anyone?

I just ordered a x43 because it is small - Same reason I got into FPV Drones. $1-10k Price tags are not cool but $100-300 makes me go from an onlooker to a player.

i got an TRX4M a few months ago and then a xmaxx last week, i really need to get a medium sized one next
