I dont understand how these things make it a bad deal. You say you bought everything seperate to put in it anyways when you got the rtr so a plus for the roller, you complain that the parts are hard to install, it's all pre installed as it's a roller. Not a kit like you keep calling it. So idk what the deal is here.

11:10 their servo does not fit their horn ... bought a pro roller, the box suggests a Spektrum SX-108, bought a SX-108 ... learned that the horizon hobbies mini 20 tooth servo horn does not fit the Horizon hobbies 20 tooth mini servo the mini-B was supposed to be a "budget class". It has ballooned into an insane run-away because the pieces in the box were not capable of just merely going around the track slowly without falling apart. The club impression on the mini-b is 50/50 between "meh,its okay" and "I want to burn this useless waste of money" now half the club has jumped at the nascar. They plan to run it as a box stock class, yet members are already pointing out problems ... and we have yet to run a single race

Yeah agree on all that. I’ve done a lot of videos on the nascar too and have found a lot of issues with my car. Some cars run good. Some ok. Some terrible. Mine was terrible and has taken a lot of sanding and reaming and refitting. It seems to be ok now but need some lap times.

You said the servo horn only fits the spektrum servo but not true the new servo horns they are making don’t even fit the servo they are supposed to.

I'd expect this kind of thing from an Amazon special, but really disappointed after the fact. Really wish I had seen this video before getting a Mini. Yeah, they are fun when they are working.. but for half or 2/3 the price, I could have had a bigger, better quality RC that COMES with a bumper and spare parts. Just didn't want to wait for the shipping. I wanted to support my local hobby shop (found a better one) and get a "quality" RC from a reputable brand, but walked out with the distinct feeling that I got ripped off. A month later and my car is in pieces waiting for a new motor. I'm not even going to bother with warranty either. Their customer service sucks. I'll keep running the mini T until I find a suitable replacement, then it's getting retired or sold for parts.
