It looks really scale but I think the kyosho mini z is way to expensive. Here in Belgium they begin at +-170€ but the jimny is already 270€. 270€ is about 317$ for that money you can buy a 1/10 car. The axial scx24 is about 140€, so it's almost half the price 🤷♂️

The engineering in these is a lot better than the mini z on-roads. Almost like another company made it, but the body is incredible without losing performance. It's painted with licensed paint and body, with awesome approach angles. I think disposable batteries have more speed than nimh rechargeables. You could always convert to your own lipo and electronics system, which would of costed too much to stay under $200.

@r.m.89703 жыл бұрын
I love the detail of the Mini-Z line, I own the 4-Runner and an MA-020. However, the crawling capability is sub-par for the price. The steering servo is way too weak, and it's difficult to fit an aftermarket one. The licensed tires are cool but are essentially slicks at this scale. I upgraded to scx-24 wheels, and the servo issue was made ten times worse, barely turning the wheels at all when stationary. Using triple A batteries mounted high on the chassis also really detracts from the vehicle's capability, IMO the root of all the side/backward rollovers. If you have a budget of $200, I personally suggest buying an SCX-24 and some upgrades. The Mini-Z crawlers are an awesome desk toy/display piece, but if you're expecting to crawl over more than a keyboard, buy the SCX-24.

Shave off about $100.99 and it will be right on target for more sales. I own quite a bit of 1/10 crawlers and it's tough spending that on those types of rigs. Jeep getting a bit aggressive on pricing for the 1/24 bodies. Cheap tires and 4 triple A's isn't a lipo like my SCX24. I just ordered 2 more scx24's for just a little more than this rig.
