HYPER MINIS

So i used some x-mas money a year ago to buy this kit... Its probably the best $125 ive spent :D !!!

Some pics of the build:















Pics of it with the original electronics:





The original electronics consisted of:

A JR XR2i Radio sytem $100
A Novak XRS esc $50
A associated super 370 $12
A Hitec HS81mg servo $30
and a matched and zapped 6 cell 1500mah side by side battery (had the punch of a lipo!) $35

All of these electronics were cheap and still good enough to consistently place well at local races

More current pics of the current setup:









Current electronics:

A Spectrum DX3S Radio System (not running the telemetry) $250
A Tekin RS ESC (TOP OF THE LINE!) $175
A Novak 10.5 sensored motor $75
The original hitech servo
the original batts


This setup is way faster and easier to maintain and use.

The Upgrade list:

Xray Aluminum Front Knuckles $32 each side!
Xray Aluminum Driveshafts $30 a pair!
3racing Motor Heatsink W/ Fan $12
Modded BRP Mini-T Bumper $8


Questions and comments are welcome :D

I like it,All these cool things i dont know what i want next.

looks geat man, you are one of the first to have this one our site. how is it holding up for you?

Well after fixing the driveshaft problem with the aluminum ones and adding the aluminum front knuckles to prevent breakage there, it is a very durable truck. The bumper is there mainly for shock protection. $12 shock shafts started getting expensive lol.

Now i only break this think about once every 2 months. It takes a really hard hit to do it though!

The awesome thing about these trucks is their literaly bulletproof drivetrain! I can pull wheelies all day long and not have to worry about a thing!

Next thing for this truck is the bluegroove buggy conversion!

Nice rig MTM. Always wanted to see one of these in person and compair it to an AE RC18. When I got my first mini was lookin at one but LHS carried no Xray stuff.Looks like it has no probs pullin rubber off the tires.lol Any vids of it in action?? l8r,w.

You asked for them, and i gave them to ya

I like the way they did the suspension, instead of using hingepins. Nice looking mini.

cool, racing, that indoor track is tiny, its more like amicro sized track.

Yes indeed

Nice rig man, and cool vids. I like the Xray M18 series minis. I regret ever getting rid of my M18. It was a fun little car.
