  1. Yes I was jus wondering if the 18mt diffs steel or titaninum will fit the mini recon.
    Thanks chris

  2. I haven’t seen HPI’s Mini Recon yet, but my guess is that they won’t be a direct fit. I plan on getting a Mini Recon and giving it a look so I’ll have to get back to you on this.

  3. this car is awesome it is NOT a waste of my money it is the best RC car I have ever bought.

  4. Good to hear, Maegan. HPI does a great job on most of their vehicles so I’m pretty sure the Recon is right up there in quality. Enjoy!
