Model Variants for buyers to consider when purchasing a Team Mini-Max Hi-MAX
The Team Mini-Max Hi-MAX has been offered in distinct versions including the 1400Z and the 1700R. The 1400Z was configured with a 45 horsepower Zenoah G-50 engine, with an optional lower powered Rotax 277 alternative, and it is no longer in production.

For buyers the key differences centre on engine choice, support availability and performance expectations, with the 1700R benefiting from broader parts support and a larger active fleet.
