Losi LMT Sees a Refresh

The Losi LMT has been out for 2 years now and has change into highly regarded with monster truckers. 2022 noticed mega-truck variations of the large strong axle truck, however methinks 2023 sees a launch of a brand new monster truck styled equipment. I believe on the very least it’s gonna be contemporary cosmetics – possibly a Max D or Megalodon? – however possibly we see a slight rework of some elements in addition?!

Extra Microscale Monsters

2022 noticed the FMS Smasher change into the primary mainstream microscale strong axle r/c monster truck to be launched, however I doubt it’s going to be the one one on this section for lengthy. An Axial SMT24? A Losi SLMT? I dunno, however I guess by the point we attain vacation season 2023 there are a number of of those rigs in the marketplace, in time for subsequent winter!

The oldsters which are in to basher monster vans have been handled to ARRMA and Traxxas buying and selling off launching haymakers at one another for the final couple years, and with the discharge of the Traxxas XRT nonetheless contemporary in lots of hobbyist’s minds, I determine ARRMA is now as a consequence of put some kinda loopy basher out in 2023 to seize the headlines again. I’m undecided whether or not it’ll be one thing massive scale or smaller, however realizing how ARRMA does it, it’ll be quick, cool and difficult.

A Scale Previous College Monster Truck is Launched

I lately wrote about this prediction in-depth, however so as to add to it only a bit extra, I actually do suppose 2023 is the yr that we lastly see this occur. The marketplace for one thing like that is ripe for the pickings, as not solely would you have got the hardcore monster truckers , but additionally the overall hobbyist who’s trying to have some enjoyable 1980’s type. Right here’s to hoping that it’s finished proper!

In order that’s what I believe’ll occur subsequent yr, how bout you all? Pleased New Years everybody! See you in 2023!
