$250 gets you this entire package!! there's enough spares here to never have to go to the hobby shop if you break something! what you see in the pictures is yours + some extras, just say the word.

NO Charger included in this package. if you need one, ask. i have a brand new Thunder Power TP-535 w/ Power Supply that i'll include for an extra $89. ask... and you'll receive pictures!

ALL Prices Include Shipping!! Talk to me... let's do some business! Questions here, PM me when you're ready to buy. thanks.

for the record! i got this lot from fasteddy a while back. it didn't work out the way i thought it would (i put a lot more money into the things after buying the lot from eddy)... they're just too small for me. i thought i would like 1:18th scale... and i also thought my GF would like it. nope. i'll be sticking to 1:10th and she... she'll remain not liking R/C in general... lol. i just want to assure you guys that there is nothing wrong with this lot, and my low price is only to make somebody a very happy person to be trying out some very cool mini-T's. cheers!

i'd like to keep it as a package for a bit. i'll part it out eventually, but for now, let's try to get the whole thing gone.

if you really need them... i'd like to group the BL system up with the lipos. $175 (don't forget about those 'brand new' tags) that's like buying the BL system, and then getting your batteries at half off, literally.

let me know.

top!

nice lot here. i'd love to keep it, but it's just too small for my liking.
 
why you need to buy this...

i can understand the psychology of buying and selling. from the nature of selling something, it can sometimes lend itself to meaning that it is not wanted. please, don't get that feeling here.

the mini-T is a wonderful little platform. its bigger brother is doing all kinds of good. my problem is the key word there... little. it's easy to work on, but i'm 6'4", with quite sizable hands. i would recommend that if you're under 6'... and looking to get into R/C... this is it! there are soooo many extras, that you'll be free to break some stuff and see where your specific weaknesses are.

having this... i'll call it a kit... having this kit come with a brushless setup is key. BL is the future of R/C. not only that... but i'm including 3 lithium-polymer batteries to get you going as well. again... the future of R/C!!

many of you reading this know these things, and the mini-T just isn't for you. to the rest of you... this is your opportunity to get in on something and learn the intricacies of it before there's too much to learn.

here's a little head's up about lipos <---CLICKY

and... some stuff about brushless motors:

Q. What does “brushless” mean?
A. Though inexpensive, traditional “brushed” electric motors offer short run times and limited power. Current passes into the heart of the motor through soft to semi-hard blocks of material called brushes which contact the spinning commutator. Friction from this contact reduces power and causes wear, eventually requiring brush replacement.

“Brushless” motors avoid these inefficiencies. Current passing around the outside of the motor’s can causes magnets on the motor shaft to follow in a circle (imagine the passing current acting like one magnet, pulling the magnets on the motor shaft toward it). Brushless technology is more expensive, but also more efficient - and can be MUCH more powerful!


Q. What advantages do brushless electronics have over glow engines?
A. Previously, only glow engines could achieve the performance now available from brushless motors, ESCs and accessories. Brushless technology, however, has benefits that glow power can’t match.
  • Cheaper - Only a charger and batteries are required…no fuel, glow plugs, starting equipment, or maintenance accessories to replenish over time.
  • Simpler - Just connect the battery to the ESC and go!
  • Cleaner - No fuel spills and exhaust residue to clean, and no fuel odor.
  • Quieter - An important consideration with non-modeling neighbors.
  • Maintenance-free - Compared to glow engines, which require maintenance and tuning.
Q. When I use a brushless motor, do I also have to use a brushless ESC?
A. Yes. Brushless motors will not work with non-brushless ESCs - the two technologies are completely incompatible. A brushed ESC just pumps out current like a fire hose pumps out water. A brushless ESC spreads current in a precise pattern to different places in the motor.

Q. How does motor choice affect my model's performance?
A. In electric motors, an increase in winds means an increase in top end speed. A decrease in winds means an increase in torque, or acceleration. Conversely, more turns means more torque/acceleration, while less turns means more top end speed.

Pinions and spur gears work the same as turns—more teeth, more torque, less teeth, less torque but more speed.

this mini-T will only be the beginning of your adventures... and i can assure that there's nothing but fun to be had with your future endeavors! i honestly don't think you're going to find a better "get me into the hobby" package... especially at a better price. drop me a PM and this will be yours!
 
am i missing something? i don't see prices on individual things.
