Losi Micro SCT - Brushless

First Review Minute will be looking at the Losi 1/24 Micro Brushless SCT RTR;. Hobbyists know that Losi has previously created a successful hobby-grade micro RC car which customers would buy and then spend several hundred dollars upgrading, on things like Brushless motors and better receivers.

Losi has cut out the middle man by offering the car with the brushless motor and 2.4ghz receiver out of the box.

The cars are very fast, even faster if you get a LiPo battery (which plugs right in).  Runtimes are between ten and eighteen minutes, depending on how hard you run it.

The 2.4 ghz receiver will send a signal as far as you can see, so you don't need to worry about losing reception.

The cars are very durable, and run on a variety of terrain. High body clearance and knobby tires allow the car to go short distances over grass, and even clear road grates with no problem.

I bought two of the cars, and my roommate and I have spent hours playing bumper cars, with very few replacement parts needed. A new set of tires because they wear down, and a five dollar steering component were all that was needed to keep the cars running.

Overall, a very good purchase, and definitely something that I would look into if you want a small, insanely fast car at an extremely reasonable price.

My local retailer did not have the brushless version of the car in stock, but Amazon.com has them in stock with free shipping for a very fair price.

Thanks!
