Default Is the Mini Trekker the Way to Go?

About to pull the trigger, is the Losi Mini Trekker the right move? Want to scale it out as much as possible and plan to build a micro course so performance and looks are top priority.

For crawlin' the trekker is the best. But if you are building a scaler, it's all just parts! I would go with the trekker though, they are better to scale out. The redcat axles are really great if you want a go fast rig.

dont worry.. since you will be buidling a course.. you will most likely start out with a losi trekker. Then a redcat sumo micro...
then you will most likely tear both apart for parts and whip something up. then you will acquire tons of parts, rigs and at some unforeseen future you will be overwhelmed with spare parts and 15 different rigs for different purposes!

but hey... welcome to all of our euphoria!!!!

It's possible it might have a lot of miles on it. The axles are the same, but the stubs and pin to hex spacers are shorter. They are great for using the axles in the rear with dually's. The drive shafts are also shorter. Beyond that it just depends on what you want to do with it.
