Rubbing, what rubbing….I thought you had a woodpecker on board lol! But all joking aside, I love the truck and the build! All the injora goodies adds extra points…I have their steering servos, wheels and tires on my crawlers…in fact, six different sizes/sets of tires alone! Very cool vid, keep up the great works!

I’m glad to see new LMT videos. My body and cage and buttons run me about $180. Wednesday I’ll be putting it together hopefully. Good job and thanks again for the content.

Nice! I just bought the fire body and cage.

I have both: they are not made for skate parks, speed on an adequately sized track does not make that much of a difference, handling is not the same at all (mini-z is miles ahead), the micro-b comes assembled like literal shit, I had to reassemble my rear diff and entire steering out of the box cause they were misassembled, battery situation is way better on the mini-z where you can just keep a ton of aaas charged and ready to run and swap them when it's needed, micro-b batteries are nowhere to be found at least in europe, they are custom sized, they're known to fail after few charges and take 1 hour to recharge for 20 minutes of runtime. The micro-b costs half as much and is worth half as much, I find the mini-z to be the superior car in every aspect except repairability, but obviously if all you want is speed and bashing at the skate park the quicker car will look better 100% of the time. Just do not expect 1/24 buggys to be engineered to do that well.

Unfortunate it's only 6061 aluminum instead of 7075, still cool though

i got one but i regreat bashing the body as hard as i did. gonna have to buy a new body and retire the limited edition one

Congrats on your new Ultimate! I've got two of the big beasts as well.. One stock and a green Ultimate. Couldn't agree with you more.. Absolutely beautiful rigs! Can't go wrong with either one -Enjoy! 🤙🏻

Nice, massive beasts, just coped the MJX 1/10 V2 & Arrma Kraton 4s, 1/10 V2, hoping there both gonna be nice.

I just got one but the teal colorway and I love ti

Lost me at AAA batteries.

Nice collection guys SUBBED

Good comparison video. Off subject a bit but you should really store that fuel that's on your hot water heater somewhere safer. If it where to leak it's directly above an ignition source.

When I bought my 2wd one it came with the bl2s system and wheelie bar but that 2s system very slow that’s why I changed it to the vxl system

I have both honestly I like the 2wd truck better I put the vxl system in both of them but the 4wd one won’t do wheelies that much 2wd one is a wheelie machine

the micro b is more hobby grade than the mini z buggy and for half the price, kyosho needs to step up their game

Awesome video. Not sure if i missed it but did you use front shocks all around. Thanks for all your help.

Nice backwards tires!

Hallo from Germany Wuppertal love and Peace❤

What screw drivers did you use

Would it move in that grass ok ?

Dam guys i was looking for this vid last week couldn't find it !!!! I was doing my own vxl install and wanted to use yours as a guide oh well ive subbed now so not to miss any new mini maxx content 😊

Nice review and an awesome course! Just subbed 👍👍👍

You cheated with the Bandit off the line.😂

Great video, when your done making the holes with the reamer, turn the body upside down and LIGHLY ream from the inside to get rid of the excess lexan, its MUCH easier....and does a better job!

Thanks for the comparison. I got a Micro B for $85

I don't think we like to see stuff broke. I like to see how durable it is because if it's durable then I'll buy it. If it breaks I'm not going to want to buy it. We just like to see it ran hard Just to see how durable it is. And if it breaks on the way then we can justify the break. But I don't think we like to see things break.

I have a 10th scale clay off-road track in my backyard w/130ft. straight...The minimax just murders it... Bone stock...

Kyosho needs to step up and just make a lipo version. Its so expensive for such a bad battery set up

And of course they didn’t bullet proof the Diffs so a VXL system can’t just be put in🤯 Traxxas cannot get out of their own way! Arrma’s dedication to their Customers is 5 times better than Traxxas’s. They actually listen to Core

There’s not enough suspension travel. People are going to treat it like an X-Maxx and it’s not even close.

I work at a hobby shop, and I have friends that have the 3s VXl system in their Mini Max. They are bashing, cartwheeling under power and have not broken 1 thing!!!

stop saying it needs more power the diffs blows if you put it on 3 s just be happy with what it is its a mini not a full scale truck im getting one of these to take with me when i go out to a park but not to be a fast demon i have a senton 3s for that i like this video thank you for posting it but all that matters is did it put a smile on your face if not then work on it but not before you test it have a good day and thanks for posting

My front diff blew in the 1st pack on 2s 😂 drive it the same as my groms what a shame.

Subbed to your channel 🤘🏻

this thing costs like $800

The answer to your question is no it’s not for the skate park

35 degrees. I'm in eastern PA, these winters pretty much guarentee I break something on every run 😂😂

I swear I coddle my Big Rock 3S like a baby compared to you KZbinrs. I'll live vicariously though videos like this. That Grom is so nice, especially the rims.

Looks like a great option for getting started at a reasonable price.

Can you remove the battery connector?

Very hard to beat Losi ! I really dislike Kyosho the brand ! In late 90s I owned a nitro powered Kyosho. I had constant issues with the rear diff. Constantly stripping gears even If i would drive it slow. From there I hated Kyosho and I will never buy a product from them again 😤 Thank you for your review 😊

Nice 👍🏾

nice review - i was disappointment with the mini z off road capability - kept needing to clean the gears - (rocks) - but mini z for difting 🏆

No xrt ?

Dang actually looks kinda cool with out the fuel tanks and side box

I love running AAA batteries in the mini cars. That's 1 reason i like Mini Z. Get some good rechargeables for a decent price, can use them in other electronics too. I got a stage 2 motor for like 13 bucks on ebay, way worth the money. Losi is a great deal though. I dont think you can go wrong with that one, I Like them both. The updated V2 brushless kyosho buggy just came out. Its over priced, but i got it anyways...

cool apot and smooth ramps mate😍👌 enjoy

The losi IS faster, but it's also a little too fast for it's scale in some situations. The kyosho is meant to be a very scale vehicle, speed and all, not really a basher. They're meant for 24th scale carpet or foam tracks and driving both I'd say the kyosho is much easier to control and race with, but if youre willing to master it the losi can be a better option because of its greater speed. Mini z basically always have repair parts cuz kyosho is really good about that, not sure how long losi will make the replacement parts. Hop up parts are gonna be more available with the Z too, whereas the losi youre gonna be hard modding changing most things. Its hard to choose between them, and it should be because theyre both excellent in what theyre good at. Id say go kyosho if you want a long term investment in a moddable rc, and losi if you want quick fun nao, or a faster but harder to control top end. Cant really go wrong either way.

How is this 1/8 like a Sledge 🤔 it's small 😉

1. I know it says in the manual it gets hot but for me it gets too hot to touch for 3 seconds when crawling at low speed. Is it the same for you also ? 2. Under load, when slowly accelerating I can feel ( at about 1/3 throttle ) a slight jerk like as the speed controller switches operating modes. It does not happen when suspended. Is it the same for you ?
