Scaled-Down Version of the 1/10th TLR 22T
Back in 2003, Team Losi released the hugely successful Mini-T, which was based on the XXXT platform. Today’s Mini-T 2.0 is now based on our TLR 22T platform, taking advantage of what we’ve learned over the years to make this generation of Mini 2wd trucks unbeatable.
Mid Motor Configuration
The Mini-T 2.0 comes standard with a mid-motor configuration. This not only replicates the 1/10th version but also provides a better-balanced chassis allowing for better performance on multiple surfaces and also balances out steering and traction.
Aluminum Chassis
The Mini-T 2.0 has been designed with a 1.5mm thick 6061-T6 Aluminum chassis plate. The aluminum chassis provides more strength and durability while vastly improving performance.
Threaded Oil Filled Shocks
The injection-molded shocks feature threaded shock collars allowing for easy preload/ride height adjustments. Additionally, the shock bodies feature a bottom loading, re-buildable shock cartridge with dual o-rings to help keep the oil in the shocks.
Ready To Run
The Mini-T 2.0 comes fully assembled and ready to rock. Just install the included AAA batteries in the transmitter, charge the included LiPo battery with the included charger.
Dynamite® Reaction® 2.0 7.4V 2S 650mAh 20C Li-Po Battery
The Mini-T 2.0 comes equipped with a 2S 650mAh Li-Po Battery for excellent performance and run time.
USB Charger
When we say entirely ready to run, we mean it. The Mini-T 2.0 comes with a USB charger making charging your battery easy and convenient.
2.4Ghz Transmitter and Receiver
With features like throttle/steering reversing, throttle/steering travel adjust, the included 2.4Ghz transmitter packs a lot of features in a small package with the interference-free connection.
BK Bar Tires with Dish Wheels
Front and rear “Mini” BK Bar tires replicate one of the most popular tires from Team Losi. Injection-molded Dish wheels replicate the factory look of the 22T.
Full Ball Bearings*
The Mini-T 2.0 comes equipped with ball bearings that enhance vehicle performance by reducing drivetrain friction and increased smoother, longer running.
*Less steering bell crank
Servo Saver
The Mini-T 2.0 comes with an oversized three-wire Spektrum metal gear servo equipped with a servo saver that provides extra protection.
Waterproof* Electronics
All the Mini-T 2.0 components are waterproof, so you can drive in any conditions with no problems.
*For details on waterproof standards, please refer to the product instruction manual.
TLR 22T Suspension Geometry
The Mini-T 2.0’s suspension geometry has been derived from the TLR 22T platform providing balanced steering and traction from the optimized race design.
Option Parts
The Mini-T 2.0 has a full line of option parts available from aluminum upgrades, brushless motor, and much more.

Great little truck, in line with what one might have experienced with the original Mini-t. The brushless version is undoubtedly faster, but I still have a ton of fun with it. The radio is bargain-basement, just enough to get you moving out of the box. If you intend to race, it may be worth investing in an esc, motor and radio system.
Psyched to find out that my MIP ball diff from the original truck fits in the transmission. After a few test runs with the factory open diff, the Hot Racing spool diff I thought it was worth a shot trying to fit the old ball diff and lo and behold: it fits.
Fit and finish is up to par with other models. Screws are tight, pieces fit well, and there are significant design upgrades with the new vehicle. Most notable is the mid-engine design as opposed to the old style rear-engine.
The vehicle is best suited for carpet/ultra smooth dirt. It is small enough to high-center on rubble that would be ignored by a 1/10 scale truck. So as a basher, just keep that in mind.
It is probably worth getting a dynamite charger or something cheap-but-better than the usb charger they give you in the box. Depends again on your use case.
Good trip down memory lane, well built, a decent price, and a huge list of aftermarket options. If you are considering it, just get it. *and buy it from hobby quarters, since they kick so much butt
