Radline or Micro-T?
I'm looking for something I can drive around outside off-road when I can't make it to a track to drive my Mini-Z.
Do you guys recommend Micro T or Radline? Please tell me why don't just say one or the other. Any other suggestions are welcomed. I don't plan on doing many upgrades other than a better motor. I'd like the vehicle to be durable so I don't have to be constantly repairing it. My main focus is on track Mini-Z racing I just want something to have fun with in my spare time. |
i'd go with the micro-t.
much more versatile and responsive. radlines aren't crap by any means but they're a notch below micro's on the totem pole IMO. plas you can buy a bunch of shiny bits in the future for the T.:bigwink: |
are you looking for something you can drive through grass? cause a micro-t cant even handle a gravel road..

Micro DT is what I say as it has more options for bigger batteries and stuff. I don't own a radline but I own a brushless/lipo Micro DT and it is arguably one of the toughest RC's I own. Only aluminum part I have on it is the steering hubs by Golden Horizons. If you don't believe me see my video from last year on my less powerful 2S LiPo. Please view in HD like I said taken last year not a single broken part and I did this 2 days in a row at around 36*F outside

But if you want to get it for cheaper than most hobby shops have them for, go here http://www.amainhobbies.com/index.php/cPath/1_44_109 Very fast shipping, very reliable, cheap shipping prices and good sale prices, lower than most places. |
I've got a Radline coming but it won't be staying the same platform wheras my Micro-T has stayed plainjane and loving every second of it.
BTW, that means the Micro-T is a nicer stock setup.:lol: |

IMO, go for the Micro-T. It's ESC is smooth, its light, easy to carry around, and has a nice punch out of the box. When I first got the Micro-T, I was surprised of how much better they were than Xmods (not like Xmods gave much competition though...)

Radline is AWD, ya know? Also, Radline is a real hobby class vehicle too. They have two versions, elite and master. Elite is what you find at target, master is what you find at hobby shops. |

Radline FTW due to AWD. What kind of real off road vehicle is 2wd? ugh. |

Your car did take a lot of abuse, to be honest I'd never drive it quite like that lol. However, I do appreciate your input however, I'm a strong AWD supporter. I had no idea the traxxas was rwd! I don't know how you afford all these cars but if the Micro DT was AWD it would have been no contest. It offends me that an off road vehicle of a small size would not be AWD. The size already limits what it can do as an off road machine enough. |
My LHS has Radlines and Mini-z...
But yeah, I still suppourt Micro-T/B/DT's ;) I've never really tried a Radline before, but I love my Micro-T :) |
