My Custom - Micro T + Case + Ramps
The Case:
As u all know, micro T's don't come with a case to keep them in when your not using them or when u are taking them out with u... so I though I would make my own... and here it is...
I made a mesh tray, which I painted black to sit the batteries on while they charge... I also added a 40x40mm PC, powered via a 9v PP9 battery, which will kool the motor down between runs...
The Micro T :
now for the micro T side of things... my current spec is:
- Atomicmods bb motor
- ball bearings
- alloy shock set
- alloy front skid plate
- threaded steel Wheel shaft shafts
and of cause, the custom hard plastic body, which as u can see I am still working on... lol...
the body I got from a 1/32 nissan king cab - Tamiya kit... which I have had to cut the rear cab out of to make the body lenght shorter to fit the micro T's wheel base...
The Ramps:
Here is a pic of my frist 2 ramps I made from cereal boxes...
I will get some vidz made, once my new servo gets here from the USA, probs next week...
I will also update, again once I have more work done on the body and my new rims set on it...

no... it was an old art box, which I made new spacers for...
updates added a better longer aerial, along with the new rims and another body, which I will use along with the custom one, once I get it finished... lol...
I also made some spacers to stop the adjustable o-ring slipping back up to the top, on the HR shocks... I kut up some spare tubing from RC aerial to make the spacers with...
after seeing a tut Suzuki did using some plastic tubing from wire end connectors...
Below is a black widow spider design I did, which I will print onto some decal paper for the sides of the above body...

damn, thats a nice looking micro-t! if you don't mind me asking, how much performance gets sapped by all the aluminum weight?
