Key Features
- TLR Championship-Inspired Design — This micro stadium truck draws its engineering and styling from championship-winning Team Losi Racing vehicles, meaning you're getting race-proven design principles in a pocket-sized package that delivers real performance credentials.
- Black-Anodised Aluminium Chassis — Losi is the only manufacturer producing micros with an aluminium chassis, setting the Micro-T apart from competitors with plastic construction. The front caster kick and side bends create a strong, rigid foundation capable of withstanding jumps and aggressive driving with ease.
- Adjustable Oil-Filled Shocks — The Micro-T includes professional-grade oil-filled shock absorbers for optimal handling and jumping during racing. These shocks are fully tunable with optional shock fluid and springs, and can be adjusted using the included pre-load clips for fine-tuning to your driving style and track conditions.
- Impressive 13+ mph Top Speed — For a vehicle of its diminutive 1/28 scale, achieving speeds above 13 mph is absolutely outrageous and delivers genuine adrenaline-pumping racing action that rivals much larger RC cars.
- Rookie Mode Speed Control — The included Spektrum SLT2 transmitter features an easy-to-use confidence-boosting "Rookie Mode" function, allowing you to limit the stadium truck's speed to 50% or 75% of its full capability with the press of a switch. This makes it perfect for safely introducing young or inexperienced drivers to RC racing, letting them learn control skills at their own comfortable pace.
- Fully Proportional Electronics — The Micro-T's integrated electronics provide fully proportional control, meaning even your slightest input on the transmitter is immediately reflected in speed and steering response, keeping you in complete command on the track.

- Fast USB-C Charging — Recharge the battery in less than an hour using the convenient included Spektrum .5A USB-C charger. This is dramatically faster than standard RTR chargers, which typically require 2–5 hours, getting you back to racing quickly.

Technical Performance
The Losi 1/28 Micro-T 2WD Stadium Truck is engineered to deliver impressive performance from a compact platform measuring just 145 mm in length, 109 mm in width, and 53 mm in height, with a total weight of 158 grammes including battery. At its core sits a Losi 65T brushed motor paired with fully proportional electronics, delivering responsive acceleration and smooth speed control across the entire throttle range. The 2S LiPo battery system (7.4V, 350mAh, 30C discharge rating) provides the power to achieve speeds in excess of 13 mph—genuinely impressive for a micro-scale vehicle. The 4-inch wheelbase (102 mm) and 2WD drivetrain architecture create a nimble, responsive handling character perfect for aggressive stadium truck-style racing. The front and rear oil-filled shocks with adjustable pre-load clips provide the suspension compliance necessary to absorb landing impacts from jumps whilst maintaining predictable handling. The black-anodised aluminium chassis with its front caster kick geometry and side bends provides the structural rigidity required to withstand sustained aggressive driving and repeated jumping. The 0.3 MOD gear pitch ensures efficient power transmission whilst maintaining durability. The PH 2.0 connector provides secure, reliable battery connections. Pro-Line Racing tyres and wheels complete the package with race-proven rubber compound and profile. With its combination of championship-inspired design, quality materials, and purposeful engineering, the Micro-T punches significantly above its weight class in terms of performance, durability, and genuine racing capability.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Losi Micro-T suitable for complete beginners and children? — Absolutely yes. The Micro-T is specifically engineered for newcomers to RC racing of all ages. It comes fully assembled with no building required, includes everything needed to start racing immediately, and features Rookie Mode on the transmitter, which limits speed to 50% or 75% of full capability. This allows young or inexperienced drivers to learn control skills safely and at their own comfortable pace. The small 1/28 scale size and light weight (158g) make it easy for children to handle, and the durable aluminium chassis can withstand the inevitable bumps that come with learning.
- What makes the Micro-T different from other micro RC cars available? — The Losi Micro-T stands out as the only micro on the market featuring a black-anodised aluminium chassis—competitors use plastic construction. This aluminium foundation, with its front caster kick and side bends, is significantly stronger and more rigid, enabling the truck to withstand jumps with ease. Additionally, the included components are genuinely high-quality: the Spektrum battery delivers 25+ minutes of runtime (versus 8 minutes on typical RTR vehicles), the .5A USB-C charger recharges in under an hour (versus 2–5 hours for standard RTR chargers), and the Spektrum SLT2 2.4GHz radio is a fully featured, interference-resistant system rather than a basic entry-level transmitter. The TLR championship-inspired design, oil-filled adjustable shocks, and Pro-Line Racing body, wheels, and tyres complete a package that delivers genuine racing credibility.
- How long does the battery last per charge, and how quickly does it recharge? — The included Spektrum 7.4V 350mAh 2S 30C LiPo battery provides more than 25 minutes of nonstop run time per full charge. Using the included Spektrum .5A USB-C charger, you can achieve a complete recharge in less than an hour—typically around 45 minutes. This is dramatically faster than standard RTR chargers which require 2–5 hours, meaning you spend more time racing and less time waiting. For maximum convenience, Spektrum offers an optional 65W USB-C GaN Power Supply (SPMX-1027) that provides even faster charging.
- What is the top speed of the Micro-T, and is it realistic for a micro-scale truck? — The Losi Micro-T achieves top speeds above 13 mph, which is genuinely impressive and "absolutely insane" for a 1/28 scale vehicle. To put this in perspective, this translates to a scale speed equivalent that rivals much larger RC cars, delivering authentic racing thrills in a package small enough to race in your living room.
- Can the Micro-T be raced both indoors and outdoors? — Yes, the Micro-T is versatile enough for indoor and outdoor racing. Its compact 1/28 scale size allows it to be raced indoors in your living room, whilst the durable aluminium chassis and quality suspension mean it's equally at home on a paved driveway or at a local park. This makes it an ideal choice for year-round RC racing regardless of weather or available space.
- What radio frequency and protocol does the Micro-T use? — The Micro-T is equipped with a Spektrum 2.4GHz SLT2 transmitter featuring interference-resistant 2.4GHz technology. This allows you to race with an unlimited number of other drivers without worrying about signal conflicts or frequency management. The transmitter includes adjustable controls for fine-tuning steering response to match your driving style.
- What suspension does the Micro-T have? — The Micro-T features professional-grade oil-filled shock absorbers on all four corners, providing optimal handling and jumping capability. These shocks are fully adjustable and tunable: you can adjust them using the included pre-load clips, and optional shock fluid and springs are available for more advanced tuning as your skills develop.
- Is the Micro-T easy to customise and upgrade? — Yes. A full line of optional parts is available for upgrading and tuning your Micro-T. Whether you want to adjust suspension characteristics, upgrade to aluminium components, change tyres for different conditions, or enhance performance, the Micro-T platform is designed with customisation in mind. This makes it perfect for hobbyists who want to develop their technical skills alongside their driving abilities.
- What motor and electronics does the Micro-T use? — The Micro-T features a Losi 65T brushed motor paired with a Spektrum SLT 2-in-1 integrated ESC and receiver unit. The brushed motor delivers responsive, proportional power delivery, whilst the integrated 2-in-1 electronics simplify wiring and setup. The system is powered by the included 2S LiPo battery and provides smooth, predictable control across the entire speed range.
- How does the Rookie Mode feature work on the transmitter? — The included Spektrum SLT2 transmitter has a convenient switch on the back that activates Rookie Mode. When activated, this mode electronically limits the truck's top speed to either 50% or 75% of its full capability. This is invaluable for introducing young or inexperienced drivers to RC racing, allowing them to focus on learning steering control and basic driving techniques before experiencing the truck's full performance potential. Once their skills develop, the limiter can simply be switched off for full-speed racing.
