| I believe it's an ready out of the box kit. Just need batteries, correct me if I'm wrong. This is the kit I was either debating over ax10 or this one. |

| M Micro Preo seems like a good idea. park 370 was nice on the vmgs i think it would befine for the Losi. I think with 3C its gonna be crazy  |

| im sure they are, i just know that after awhile Ill end up doing something to it. Sounds like it would be a great new class to start up. Maybe a spec class like we do with the slashes. |

| i say just wait till we get it before u think about changing it right now as it looks its gonna be great out the box if anything ppl are just gonna buy new batts and maybe even different motors and plastic links to metal i think that will be the main things. |

| The tweaks for this little rig will be endless for sure...functional beadlocks, a tube chassis will no doubt come down the pike (and I admit, I'll be on that like white on rice) motors, esc's, shocks, lipo... But the true beauty here, is that it appears to be a very capable crawler right out of the box, and along with the killer price point, that is what will sell the Losi MRC and get even more drivers into RC Crawling. I'd compare this offering to their Micro T platforms, sure you can hop them up to ridiculous standards, but in my eyes, these are open the box, charge and drive rigs. Just crazy fun, and as was said, smiling from ear to ear while you do so. Sometimes it's nice to just play |

| An outrunner and 11.1V on this rig will be too much. |

| Got some on order. Were gonna do a spec class. I cant wait. Body and radio changes only (cant really get better than the spectrum). This will show that set up and driving style makes the win. I fugured when im don with my 25x25ft inddor course we can start rolling in the winter. I had 11.1V and a outrunner (park 370) in my VMG and it wasnt to much for it. The Losi looks 10x as strong. |

| Can't wait to get mine. Looks like a well designed, ultra-capable right out of the box. I think the only mod I'd do is change to the 1/18th grappler body... http://www.losi.com/ProdInfo/Files/LOSB0222Manual.pdf |
