TY!
Guess will be hard to find and I wonder what one would be worth these days...

Losi has to make the Micro-CT sooner or later....

Hey hey hey!

THanks 2 all, i'm happy that i made this topic =)

Now №1 question is where to get SSMT? Nothing on EBay, and i live in Russia, so other ways of buying stuff exept stores that ship in Russia are probably difficult. If it's possible, i'l buy about 8 pcs for me and my friends!

Where to get some?

SSMT axles will be really hard to find. If you do find some, they will be expensive...usually in the 60-100$ price range.

I know that XMODificatoin had some on eBay along with tires and some other stuff. I'm not sure if the auction is over, or if someone bought them.

A different option is to try to custom build an axle.

Is this what the axles are from? It's the only one i found that isn't sold out/discontinued. I guess you must pay to play.

Yeah - the link you posted is what the axles are from. The other R/C is useless, pretty much.

You want the ones in the Toys-R-Us link, the Amazon link is to the smaller version which is just like a Zip-Zap.

They are no longer made, and hard to come by. The last set I saw on Ebay were starting at $150, I just rolled my eyes and hit the back button. They are a valuable commodity due to the small scale, they're perfect for 1:24th scale builds. Most folks who have a set and are willing to part with them know what people are willing to pay for them...

The ones that are good for 1:24 builds are the 1:43 scale SSMT. The one in that amazon link is the 1:24 SSMT.

What is your price range?
If you can spend that 250 then Losi MRC all the way

Default Zip Zap MT

Here's my 2 ZZMTs with fj40 bodies. They have a choice of
3 diffent wheel/tire combos and 4 motors for different speeds.
No flex...for now. Smoke and Mirrors hooked me up with a link
to a site detailing a mod to allow the things to flex like the one he built
and pictured in this thread. As he noted they are locked diff 4WD.
Just a fun little toy. You can back up then hit forward for some neat wheelies
and they have a roller in back so in wheelie you can do 360 degree spins.
The headlights work in forward and the tail lights work in reverse.
These bodies came from a Mighty Wheels diecast toy and were modded to fit the ZZMT.
Not a serious crawler but I've got about $40 invested in the whole
shebang.
