The Team Losi Mini-T is the original 1/18th scale electric stadium truck made by Team Losi of Ontario, California. The basic Mini-T is sold as a complete, ready-to-run package, complete with painted and trimmed Lexan body. The design of the Mini-T is based on Losi's XXX-T 1/10-scale truck; despite the Mini-T's diminutive size, handling characteristics and overall vehicle dynamics are remarkably similar to the larger truck. Power comes from a Mabuchi RS-280 motor operated via a miniature electronic speed control. Four "AA" alkaline batteries are required to power the truck; eight are required for the transmitter. Six-cell Nickel metal hydride and 3S lithium polymer batteries are available for longer and faster runtimes and more economical long-term operation.
