Losi 1/18 Mini LMT Megalodon 2S 4X4 RTR Brushed Monster Truck Battery & Charger Included Blue LOS01026T3

I absolutely love this truck. I have never had a hobby grade RC before but I'm kind of hooked. Bought this because my little 2 yr old loves Monster Jam trucks and the child in me thought this was the coolest/ most unique looking RC. This is not a toy for a 2 year old because its very powerful but my little guy is obsessed with it. As a result he gets his hands on it sometimes and abuses it pretty bad. Therefore I can tell you its absolutely built very well. Almost a month later of everyday use and its holding up very well. Parts are available to replace anything that breaks or if you want to upgrade.Battery life is very good if not set to 100% all of the time (you can select between 3 power modes: 50,75 & 100%). I probably get 30 minutes of fun intermittently moving between power bands (higher power makes drifts or tricks easier, lower power good for driving around home obstacles like a race track). In those 30 minutes I'd say I'm not running flat out on the trigger. I imagine if you were the battery life would be less.Fun factor is off the charts as this is a little stunt truck that can do flips easily, drive on 2 wheels (front or back), pop wheelies and fly off ramps landing perfectly.Lots of adjustability/upgradability. Ride height is adjustable. Control lets you move between power profiles and steering sharpness. I find that you have to turn the steering sharpness down if suspension is riding high and taking turns at speed else it flips easily. I have fun tweaking the car for the ride surface / situation.Anyway you absolutely can't go wrong if you want good fun. I know its pricey if you have never had something of this quality before. I'm no expert with RCs but I got this around $50 off the stated price and at that price I think its absolutely worth it. I can gather up about 5-6 lego builds and/or cheap rc cars and easily have spent what this ONE truck costs but this is infinitely more fun.

This little thing is bad@$$!!! I love my 1/8 LMT but this mini one is so rad. Love using it in the house. I threw some adapters on it and attached the traxxas K10 body to it. Love it!!!!!!

So much fun

1/18 scale is so small it does not stay on its wheels without rollong over and getting stuck all too often. As a result the shark body is damaged and scuffed up more than I thought for just one drive.Top heavy design is overly unstable and not practical enough for staying on its wheels. There is a long pause between forward and reverse that bothers me. The outer shell has parts of rubber such as the fin and tail, but the main body is not rubber. The battery wires connect to the charger with a weak connection adapter.Charger does not come with an optional cable to plug into a usb-c power source. I had to provide my own cable.The side pins to hold on the outer shell are weaker than the front/rear pins.The remote does not stand up on its own and just falls over.The suspension is not as good as independent suspension and feels like it's lacking for the price range.There is no place for the antenna wire to dangle on the truck.I dislike the front bumper design because the first part that hits is also the same part that links the steering together.

Weak shocks for price. seller was good, product was mediocre
