A good battery pack with deans plugs and a ball diff should be the first thing you do. Also make sure your front and rear diffs are lubed and shocks are filled correctly.
Get some batts from United RC, and a set of Trinity Mini Cobalts if you have the $.
to charge the losi factory battery really quick, i used my energizer battery dc supply of 12v 1600mah.made a connector to fit and charges in 30 min. just check that it doesnt get to hot.i get almost 20min of run time at full speed and the car is quicker.beats 4-5 hours by far.Try a ac/dc adaptor and charge at 12v at 500ma or 1000ma.
make your own battery to fit mini losi lst. just visit a local battery supplier, purchase 6 good quality and highest mah battery and assemble yourself.cost a third of the price and performs beautifully.
many mini losi lst owners complain of shredded diffs etc... c'mon guys,this is a mini version , it cant take the same punishment as the full scale.most guys will run the mini losi over the same obstacles a full scale runs on , of course the bugger wont last long.scale down the obstacles and stop slamming the reverse gear while the car is still cruising forward.Otherwise its a fantastic performing machine.
