Overview
Feed your inner racer with the affordable, ready-to-run Losi® Mini-T™ 2.0 V2 2WD Brushless Stadium Truck. Whether you're searching for a brushless RC truck UK, a ready to run RC car, or an entry point into competitive mini racing, this is the machine that delivers genuine performance without compromise. With the included Spektrum™ brushless electronics and a TLR® race-inspired design, it has the speed, handling, and tuning potential to put you in the lead. This 1/18 scale stadium truck combines championship DNA from Team Losi Racing's 40+ years of innovation with the accessibility and affordability that makes RC racing genuinely fun for everyone.
Stadium trucks and mini racing might just be the perfect match for aspiring RC racers. Compared to RC buggies, RC stadium trucks are more forgiving — they're easier to drive, easier to jump, and handle better over bumps. And the mini size is simpler and more affordable than racing with 1/10 scale and larger vehicles. The Losi® Mini-T™ 2.0 2WD Brushless Stadium Truck proves the point. It needs few, if any, modifications to be accepted into popular mini racing classes. You avoid the expense and the intimidating learning curve required to compete in 1/10 scale — no stressing out over what tyres to run, what electronics are best, or what options to choose when completing your kit.
Straight out of the box, the Losi Mini-T 2.0 2WD Brushless Stadium Truck is completely assembled and ready-to-run. The efficient 2-in-1 brushless motor and ESC system can get around the track at 30 mph speeds, and the suspension is inspired by the prestigious TLR® 22 — a vehicle often seen on the podium at competitive 1/10 scale buggy races. The combination of high power with predictable handling enables the Mini-T 2.0 to perform like a high-end machine, agile in the corners and easy to jump, with plenty of durability to survive crashes and continue to the finish.
Key Features
- Race-inspired design based on a TLR ROAR Nationals winner — This is not a toy, but a genuine racing machine engineered by Team Losi Racing, the brand responsible for countless championship wins. The DNA of the Mini-T 2.0 comes directly from the TLR 22 stadium truck that dominates competitive 1/10 scale racing, meaning you get proven race engineering in an affordable 1/18 scale package.
- Fully assembled and ready-to-run — No building, no complicated assembly, no frustration. This ready to run RC truck arrives completely assembled with all electronics installed and tested. You simply charge the battery, insert the transmitter batteries, and you're racing within minutes. Perfect for beginners who want to skip the intimidating learning curve.
- Spektrum 6000Kv 2-in-1 brushless power system — The integrated brushless motor and ESC combination delivers smooth, efficient power with zero maintenance compared to brushed systems. At 6000Kv, this motor produces genuine 30 mph performance while maintaining the control and predictability needed for precision racing rather than just raw speed.
- High-capacity Spektrum Smart G2 2S LiPo battery — The included 7.4V 810mAh 2S Smart G2 50C LiPo battery provides long run times that keep you racing for extended sessions. The integrated microchip stores charging parameters and communicates with the supplied charger automatically, ensuring safe and accurate charging every time without user error.
- Convenient Spektrum Smart G2 USB-C LiPo charger — Using innovative Spektrum Smart technology, the battery communicates automatically with the supplied Smart USB charger the moment you connect it. You don't have to worry about making the correct charge settings — it's done for you. Charging is convenient, safe, and easy, with safe voltage discharge when not in use.
- Well-balanced mid-motor chassis configuration — The mid-motor placement delivers ideal weight distribution to balance out steering and traction, providing winning performance on a variety of racing surfaces. This proven configuration is used on high-end racing machines costing three times the price.
- Easily tunable injection-moulded oil shocks — After your warm-up laps, you can easily tune the injection-moulded oil shocks to the track conditions. Their threaded collars allow fast preload and ride height adjustments, and the shock bodies feature a bottom-loading, rebuildable shock cartridge with dual O-rings that help prevent oil leakage. You can also use different spring rates and TLR® shock oil weights (available separately) for advanced shock tuning.
- Race-proven tyres — The tyres included with the Mini-T 2.0 2WD brushless stadium truck recreate the popular Losi Step Pin rear tyres and Directional Rib front tyres from the early 2000s, proven compounds and tread patterns that deliver predictable handling and consistent grip across different racing surfaces.
- Rugged metal-gear transmission — The metal gear transmission is engineered to handle the massive power output of the Spektrum 6000Kv brushless motor system. All of the gears are ball bearing supported for smooth, efficient operation and durability that survives the rigours of competitive racing.
- Full ball bearings (less steering) — The entire vehicle except for the steering bellcrank is equipped with ball bearings for maximum smoothness and efficiency. This is a must-have feature for racing, reducing friction and extending component life.
- Spektrum SLT2 2.4GHz radio system — The included 2.4GHz transmitter provides interference-free control and many useful features for new racers. Steering trim, steering rate, and steering reversing adjustments give you precise control tuning. Most importantly, the throttle limiting switch lets beginners limit their access to the truck's full speed potential from 50% to 75% to 100%, perfect for learning RC control skills gradually and safely.
- 1.5mm thick 6061-T6 aluminium chassis plate — The foundation of the Mini-T 2.0 2WD stadium truck's race-inspired design is this robust aluminium chassis. It provides the strength, durability, and rigidity needed for competitive racing performance and crash survival.
- Spektrum SX108 servo with servo saver — The steering servo turns the Mini-T 2.0 2WD stadium truck tyres with over 40 oz-in of torque. Its servo saver gives a consistent feel to the steering while protecting the servo from sudden jolts caused by bumping with other vehicles on the track.
- Spektrum SR315 receiver — The 3-Channel Dual Protocol Receiver delivers superb range and response with a solid 2.4GHz link. It has an extra port for racing transponders and accommodates upgrades to higher-performance Spektrum transmitters without the need for a new receiver, allowing your investment to grow with your skills.
- Water-resistant construction — This ready to run RC truck can handle damp conditions and light water exposure, making it suitable for outdoor racing venues without fear of immediate electronic failure from moisture.
Technical Performance
The Losi Mini-T 2.0 V2 is engineered with genuine performance credentials. Powered by the Spektrum 6000Kv brushless motor system, this electric RC truck delivers 30 mph speeds with the smooth, maintenance-free operation that makes brushless systems the industry standard. The 2S LiPo battery compatibility (specifically the included 7.4V 810mAh unit) provides plenty of power without requiring expensive upgrades. The well-balanced mid-motor chassis configuration, paired with the 1.5mm thick 6061-T6 aluminium chassis plate, creates a rigid foundation that maintains geometry under the stresses of competitive racing. The suspension system uses injection-moulded oil-filled shocks with 7mm bores, tunable via threaded collars for preload and ride height adjustments. The metal gear transmission with ball bearing support handles the motor's power output efficiently, whilst the full ball bearing complement (except steering) minimises friction throughout the drivetrain. With an 18-tooth pinion and 60-tooth spur gear configuration, the truck achieves excellent acceleration whilst maintaining control. The Spektrum SR315 receiver operates on the 2.4GHz frequency band with dual protocol support, whilst the integral ESC (electronic speed control) is built into the motor system and handles forward, brake, and reverse functions. Ground clearance of 24mm (0.97 inches) and a wheelbase of 160mm (6.30 inches) balance approach and departure angles with stability. Tyre dimensions of 1.4 inches provide appropriate scale proportions whilst the 1.10-inch (28mm) wheel width offers stable platform. At just 232mm long, 179mm wide, and 91mm tall, the Mini-T 2.0 is genuinely compact, making it ideal for indoor racing on basketball courts, in basements, or on driveway courses, yet it performs like machines several scales larger.
