About this part
Micro Scale Truck with Explosive Brushless Performance
The Maverick Microbe SC Flux 1/24 Brushless RTR 2WD Short Course Truck takes the already-capable Microbe platform and injects it with true Flux brushless power. Built for drivers who want sharper throttle response, higher top speed and a more explosive feel, this tiny SC truck delivers big-track excitement in places you'd never expect. Its lightweight aluminum backbone, balanced layout and race-inspired hardware make it just as happy carving tight indoor layouts as it is ripping across backyard dirt. Whether you're chasing lap times or just blasting around for fun, the Microbe Flux SC turns any space into a high-energy micro-scale race zone.
About the Microbe SC Flux 1/24 Truck
Advanced Electronics & Control
The Flux version upgrades the Microbe SC with the compact and powerful FLX28 brushless system, pairing a lightweight 2S-capable ESC with an 8000kV motor. This combo delivers instant throttle response, huge top-end speed and the unmistakable punch that defines the Flux lineup. The MSRS-702 unit handles receiver duties, keeping the electronics layout clean and efficient, while the dedicated FLX28 brushless ESC delivers crisp, responsive power control worthy of the Flux name. It's a setup built for drivers who want maximum performance in the smallest possible footprint.
Suspension & Drivetrain
A rigid 1.5-millimeter anodized aluminum chassis and fully ballraced drivetrain give the Microbe SC a planted, precise feel on rough terrain. Longer, softer oil-filled coilover shocks soak up bumps and landings, keeping the truck stable and predictable through corners and transitions. Metal outdrives, axles, rear dogbones, and a sealed three-gear differential ensure durability and smooth power delivery run after run. The result is a tiny SC truck that feels tight, responsive, and ready for serious micro-scale racing.
Body, Wheels & Tires
The "Top Line" polycarbonate short course shell gives the Microbe SC a sleek, race-ready look while offering the toughness needed for rollovers and hard hits. Vented Microbe Racing wheels with foam-insert Sidepin tires provide consistent grip on carpet, dirt, and dusty pavement. The combination of supportive inserts and a race-style tread pattern keeps the truck sharp and predictable during fast direction changes. It's a compact SC that looks the part and drives like a scaled-down race machine.

I think is cool as can be and at least on par with losi’s offerings. Mine traction rolls pretty easy, reports I’ve seen say the same but it seems the buggy is not having that issue. If this is your one and only, get the buggy. If you’re adding to the pile, get both. I’m going to nitpick… Expandable/movable battery tray which is really cool… stock battery is still too short to fit right Flx28 esc, the power wires dangle by small unsupported solder joints. I fear I will have to redo these as some point. I’ll
