Yours or part of the deal swap thing?
Looks like a fun tiny truck!

Free rental or "loaner" truck for the time being just like the Pro4.

Before the clean up

After the clean up:

For the tires, just cold water and a ole tooth brush. Let out to dry. Wipe them off with a paper towel and like new again.

Reflex14T to Mini B comparison

Electronics:

Everything is stock besides Flysky NB4 receiver and unknown brand 1500mah battery. Just testing it in the pits while cleaning up today and testing it in the basement, throttle is really smooth, and really fast. Just some light cog at low throttle but thats to be expected. 4500kv motor doing its job. Ill test speed tomorrow, weather depending. The stock Reedy SC300BL is by just looking at it, a rebranded hobbywing 16BL30 but ill have to take in a look on the specs. 2s only, BEC is 6v@1A. Pretty standard for Mini electronics.

Most likely not gonna race it but ill test it on the track next time I'm down. Since I don't want to do burnouts and turn them into slicks unless my buddy says that I could.

I find it surprising it to me 7.0mm nut/12mm hex for being 1/14 scale. Wish the Mini B had 12mm hexes but I guess its a bit too small to have those although there are adapters for 12mm hex to run onroad tires or something like that.

I used to use a toothbrush on my R/C's but my kids used to get upset when I put thiers back in the cupboard without getting all the big rocks out first.
It looks good! Cleaned up nice!

Well this is going to be a monster on carpet...
Idc if they say no, I'm running it. 4wd sc on carpet was the bomb back in the day. It's just that "it messes up the carpet badly", like buggies and stadium trucks don't?

Running slash rear offset wheels on all 4 so it's a bit wider so technically I should do a alignment but I ain't racing it so I'm fine.

Great job hitting that down ramp (the first two times) . They sure don't give you much. My nerves would get the best of me trying to make that smooth transition.
