Default MicroBaller...

One wasn't enough. Picked up #2 today and started to mod it. First off was to remove the stock battery setup. I moved the mounting of the esc/rec to the servo. I then installed the new 2s 25c 360mah Lipo :thumbs: on the empty tray. Performance is great, but it could use a little more weight. I am a little concerned about the temps...but will let it burn up.

Picked up a nice scaler body for one of them...

No, I picked up the Mountain Goat Commando kit. Couple others are now doing. So now I might go with option B? I should have some pics up this week. Got some styrene and ideas.

I haven't found a nice little Bug yet. I will continue to look for options.

The first one is fugly. The second is sweet, but for $10 more then the Micro costs really sucks. I will keep looking. For now I will work on the Commando.

yep I agree with both those statements although the first one has some nice details and with some styrene work it would be sweet..


or you could buck up and become a true baller and buy the later

Yeah, it fits snug on the stock esc tray, kinda bulky...bad side. Cheap, double stock capacity, 1/3 the price of the Losi Micro Lipo.
