Just found out about this little gem. So, I drove down to my local hobby shop and picked one up for myself. It is so fun to drive.😍 I think that this little truck will bring new people into the hobby and allow folks to form racing groups with other RC friends.

[@dustinrossi9384]

We race them in our mini mob series

[@malo_213]

TEAM LOSI ALLDAY! Been having my LST2 over 14 years and still running great..

[@austinsinger5800]

Where do you get your parts for your mini lst2? I have one too and I need to rebuild my entire drivetrain

[@seanmathis7971]

It’s such a cool little car! My buddies both fell in love with it, they both scooped up there own lol one of got the 40th anniversary from our Lhs. Cracked that badass body in the first hour 🤣

[@scarecrow33]

My friend just got me the brushless one. It’s my first RC and I’m really digging it so far!

[@Towelie42O]

Not gonna lie, was scared the stock 650mah lipo 2s battery wasnt gonna last long but boy was I wrong.. Stock mini T 2.0 with stock battery, I can get about 20-25mins from a full wall charge.. It does take a while to charge the battery with the wall charger tho, takes about 2 hours or so.. Still worth the $140 price tag.. I love this lil thing.. Loved the mini T1 alot as well.. Great video by the way👌🏻

[@skarlettzhu7656]

I just bought one of these, I'm so excited for it to come in!

[@Andries.Buskenz]

Absolutely love mine, on a prepped scale surface you can feel it's racing roots

[@hughgeorgie2097]

Mine's coming tomorrow, can't wait. I've got 2 originals out in the garage I think I'll revive also. Summer is FINALLY here.

[@ericanshutz45]

Nice job. Great review.

[@marcmon805]

I get about 20 to 30 minutes stock. Just got it about 3 months ago. It's a blast! I had the original one but got stolen many years ago and feels so good having it back!

[@7philly5]

I have the 40th anniversary edition and love mine... wheelie popping machine..

[@Justin87GN]

Loved my version 1! I think I bought it when i was 13 back in 03 and still have it! I'll definitely have to get one of these 2.0's on order

[@mikefontenot5313]

Well I order one was kinda unsure bout it , I love this lil truck so fast and handles good really like it get bout 20/30 mins of run time such a fun rc 👍🏼

[@agoodballet]

I’ve got some rc18t’s and they’re a blast. The miniT has been on my list of must haves since it came out.

[@jpsalis]

Damn, this thing is really cool. Shame they haven't brought back the micro T as well, I missed my chance at one of those a few years ago.

[@mr30fps39]

Yesss i miss the micro t

[@thercracer1717]

I just bought one today I it’s AWESOME

[@AllRCACTION]

Another Great video review!!! Can you get Losi to remake the Mini Slider and Mini Late model now? Would love to see them with the new chassis from Losi, Thank you

[@rcdriver]

I still have my Slider. I love that car. It would be cool to see those revamped too.

[@aaronglanville8430]

Bought one for my 5 year old son today for his birthday 🎉

[@mrallende007]

Great video as always Greg! I just got one as a father’s day present. I cannot wait for your follow up video with some of the upgrade parts and with the brushless system by Dynamite.

[@zachmcconnell9971]

If you haven’t yet I would highly recommend the brushless system. I just put it on my mini b and it’s amazing and 10x faster

[@413RC]

Was hoping to meet you at RCM for the mini nationals this year! maybe they'll still happen. I'll be featuring my brushless mini-t 2 shortly. love this platform!

[@rcdriver]

Maybe it will happen. I need to get up there soon. Lot’s of race machines waiting for track time and Chris has a track for everything. 🤣

@@rcdriver hi I am Ed I Iam excited about the mini t 2.0 I used to have the original mini t I hear this one is water proof

[@BlueDually4x4]

I bought the Mini T version 1 when they came out years ago to keep in my tool box at work so I had something to do during my lunch breaks. I might have to get the electronics from the new one and just update the old one.

[@goldenmanuever1176]

Being this is only $140 just get the new one chief.

[@brysonkuhn3290]

You can probably sell the old one for like 80 and get the new one instead of spending like 150 on all the different parts to make the old one new

[@zamiryusof8239]

It's an impulse buying for me. Went to hobby shop few hours ago looking for spare parts for my 1/8 buggy but found this little puppy sitting on the shelf. It pique my interest as this model never been advertised by any local hobby shop in my country compared to models from wltoys and MJX but what made me bought it was how similar it is to proper 1/10 race truck. It's smaller than most cheaper 1/16 rc truck but it's a perfect size for my 2 y/o daughter. After dialed down the throttle enough, it's manageable for her to drive on field while controlling the steering.

[@rcmedia9516]

Awesome video, I just picked one up today. I did not get to test it on the stock motor, I put the dynamite brushless combo in and it is amazing. I'm using a dx5c transmitter. I'll be making some videos on it shortly, much better quality than my old wl toys 959.

[@aggienjneer]

Did you use the stock receiver that came with the car or did you have to switch out to a compatible dsm receiver with your dx5c?

[@rjames7380]

I tie a rope on the back. Tie on a small piece of steak and run my dog with it. She loves it

[@JREVY22DECEPTICON416]

A lot of fun in a lil size 😍😍😍I've gotta get this for my collection! There isnt a hobby grade 1 18 rc in my collection only toy grade 1 18 such as the Litehawk spike Jr and adventure force metal racer buggy.

[@rodmucio255]

I bought this for my 6 year old grandson and hes having tons of fun with it as he only has it for two weeks and tires are starting to get bald. It's his fave because it handles well and fast! Still stock atm but not for long. Great vid!

[@Embarkation1]

Did you drop the throttle down a long way for him when starting out? I’m returning to the hobby and wondering if my son will be able to join in also (4 yrs)

[@ClevelandRips]

Just ordered this vehicle in the red configuration. Super excited!

[@kntwing23]

i always want 1 of these cars... how long does the battery last??

[@Krucifixo206]

All my LHS’s are sold out BUT they do have the limited edition for $250. I may have to snag one today!!! Thanks for a great video!!!

[@rcdriver]

They’re supposed to be back in stock any time now. Saw a few shops post on IG that they had them back in stock yesterday which is why I put the video up. The LE kit does look pretty awesome. Enjoy! 👍

[@paulclancy2404]

I ended up just using mine glad I bought it went back to lhs but another it was gone lol

[@Krucifixo206]

RCDriver_Online thanks so much!!! I’ll be on the lookout! Can’t wait for the Maxx series to continue!!!!

[@Krucifixo206]

RCDriver_Online just got 2 from my LHS!!!! They just got them in this morning. Thanks 🙏🏾!!!!

[@paulclancy2404]

Nice great little rtr if I thought brushed was fine till I went brishless

[@randomstuffno1caresabout3]

These look sweet to bad my lhs is sold out of literally everything. He is even sold out of nitro other than a few quarts.

[@rcdriver]

These should be coming back in stock very soon. Lot’s of hobby stuff is getting sold out, something to do during these time.

[@longboardguy]

RCDriver_Online ya even here same thing everywhere it seems ! 🇨🇦

[@pistonpoweruk]

We raced these in a stock class, with a piñon change. Good fun.

[@rcmedia9516]

What pinions can be used ?

[@SldgeHammr]

Yeah what's the PN on that different pinion

[@pistonpoweruk]

Hobby Media we used RW racing ones in the UK

[@shuttersounds__jpg]

pistonpoweruk what pinion did you exactly use? Would like to try this out.

[@pistonpoweruk]

Marty McFly think it was up a couple of teeth? Rw hardened pinion I think.

I got the mini e revo its awesome too!

Hi I have the brushless version I found a little bouncy I have changed the oil in shocks to 50 what else can I do thanks

Love my losi mini 2.0 so I got 3 & anniversary edition

[@squidiskool]

I am gonna be saving up money for it lol

[@BLKBRDSR71]

I had the original Mini-T back in the day. That was a fun little RC. I broke the steering arm so many times. 😁 It finally kicked the bucket when I drove it through a puddle of water. I'm thinking about picking this one up just so I can use the spare parts I still have. Good review, thanks.

[@michaelrowe5896]

Great video. Thank you. I ordered mine off Amazon for use at the Koa campgrounds around me. Nitro is too loud people frown about it, didn't wanna spend $700+ for 1/8 scale or even some 1/10 scale RC cars. Tried my step bros and this thing is freaking awesome!! 😃

[@Glowingtomato]

Cool review! I've had mine since a week after launch and love it. I'm waiting for the motor to die so I can put in a brushless Hobbywing system. I can't wait to take it back to the track when they reopen.

[@mikefontenot5313]

Just order me one hopeing it's a good idea

[@adammagoon8517]

I am having problems with my mini 2.0 t. It always wants to do donuts. I've tried adjusting the steering but it's still doing donuts. Please help

[@RCHobbyShed]

Awesome little truck. The first Mini-T was great fun but these just seem so much better, as far as handling goes at least.

[@Embarkation1]

Can you trim the throttle down far enough for my young son to use it when I’m not playing with it myself?

[@chrisbelvedere9962]

Did you figure this out? Wondering the same for my daughter.

[@Friskee62]

Great trucks. We race in our basement on carpet, 4 racers at a time, 3 minute heats. I think the track layout is 20' x 9'...

[@savagepaul-]

I put a 5200kv and 7800kv hobbywing in mine 5200 alll the way, these things are sick!

So I just got mine two days ago and I already put the aluminum shocks front and rear I’m literally gonna buy all the aluminum upgrades 😂 I also put the brushless dynamite but im having trouble with it

Wats wrong with yours

[@jeremymiller2340]

I'm late but just orderd one it looks like a blast of an indoor carpet runner, good video man, as always!

[@EliKazmaier]

Great video. Do you know if there are any street tires that will fit?

[@paulclancy2404]

One my favorite rcs , I use daily on break one has over 15hrs run time

[@rcdriver]

Awesome!!

[@luisoliva1926]

15 min or hours

[@paulclancy2404]

Lol hours , I used to count the battery cycles and do a rough estimate so I probably had 30 packs ran through at that point

[@paulclancy2404]

Its a good little rc, you could get alot more for your money but quality won't be the same

[@luisoliva1926]

How much time does it take to charge

[@StevenGilbert88]

14mph stock motor 24mph with the dynamite upgrade

[@NathanStorer-RC]

My use case for this is probably going to be way different than most haha... I'm hoping to stick my GoPro Max on top of it and use it as a chase vehicle for my RC Drift Videos. With Horizon and Amain having these on sale for $100, I couldn't pass it up. Even if it can't support the weight of the camera, it looks like it'd be fun to drive around anyway.

[@garbagefpvproductions859]

I put a brushless system in it that’s made for a 1/16 scale and on 3s it’s capable 50mph+! Insane!

[@peterlowks631]

Has it burned up on 3s or is it still at it with a everyday use of 3s

[@garbagefpvproductions859]

Peter Lowks 3s isn’t a everyday use mainly because it’s just so uncontrollable. Motor gets warm in 2s because of the 27 tooth pinion.

[@sheahill6628]

Would this be a good beginner RC?

[@Biowolf626]

I remember buying the beer wagon body, Baja motor and the integy blue all aluminum kit, and over sized tires for the original. Brings back the memories

[@seanjbrogan]

Hey Great video! I am think about getting one of these for my daughter but after reading all the review out there I am thinking brushless is the way to go, for power and run time. Just wondering if you think that is wrong? Also is there a good place to pick up a used one?

[@nonyabizz3533]

What did you go with? Thinking the same for my daughter but wondering if brush is that way to go. Thinking maybe less speed she could learn better
