Losi 1:18 Mini Rock Crawler Pro Race Roller

Losi’s Mini Rock Crawler Pro is just the answer that many rock crawling fans have been looking for.  From the World Championship winning Blue compound mini rock claw tyres to the Comp Crawler inspired upper shock bracket geometry, this 1.9inch class crawler has what it takes to own the rocks.

Based upon the award winning Mini Rock Crawler, widely accredited as being the catalyst for the growing 1.9inch class, the Mini Rock Crawler Pro has been extensively tweaked and fettled by Losi’s experienced Rock Crawling designers whose brief was clearly to deliver the most complete Mini Crawler to once again, lift the bar of expectation a further notch or two.

From the carbon Twin Vertical Chassis Plates to the combined servo and battery tray sitting right over the front axle where you want it to be, the Mini Rock Crawler Pro has been detailed by enthusiasts for enthusiasts.  Strengthened metal diff lockers and front CV drive shafts are provided as standard, as is a true 4-link suspension design along with near-zero Ackermann steering geometry and the pro level threaded alloy shock oil-filled shock absorbers- all features that experienced crawling fans will appreciate and features that newer crawling fans will learn to rely on.

As you’d expect, the suspension geometry is totally adjustable, allowing you to dial the Mini Rock Crawler Pro in to whatever type of terrain you’re facing.  Multiple upper track rod mounting positions are accommodated within the TVP chassis design whilst the shock angle can be quickly adjusted by means of the carbon fibre shock arms – technology that has filtered through from the critically acclaimed 2.2inch Losi Competition Crawler.

The Mini Rock Crawler Pro comes as a Race Roller meaning that all you need to do to complete it is to fit your choice of electronics and paint the Mini Grappler Pro body in the colours of your choice.  Despite its diminutive size, the Mini Rock Crawler Pro will even accept a standard sized steering servo.
