We first saw the SavageXS Flux at Nuremberg. Now here it is stateside. While it’s still in prototype form, the word from RCX is that it should be hitting mid-summer. It’ll come from the factory RTR, with a waterproof 2.4 GHz radio system, Flux brushless system, and a top speed on 3S of about 60 MPH. I’ll be posting more [...]

Budget radios are everywhere these days and HPI is not one to be left out of the fun. Their TF-20U radio, which has been the 2.4 GHz pack-in radio for many of their RTRs, is now available separately. Being a budget radio it’s not big on features, having only 2 channels, a steering dual rate switch, throttle and steering trims, [...]
How often have you been sitting around saying to yourself “boy, if only my sedan had a Boss 302 body, my life would be complete…” I’m guessing not often, most of you probably rank other things as more important to having a fulfilled life. Not me though, I’m a straight up, unrepentant consumer. If it’s shiny or new, I must [...]
RTR Sucks. I said it, and I don’t feel bad for saying it. So any time I hear of a kit version of any vehicle being released I jump for joy. HPI has long been cool about releasing their Baja 5 line as a kit version, so their new Baja 5SC SS comes as no surprise. Just like all the [...]
Another announcement from the HPI camp at the big German toy fair is an update to the Savage X 4.6. Quite a bit has been changed in this new version, it now comes with a 2.4 GHz radio system, waterproof servos, a new body style with all new graphics, and most importantly more durable diff gears with a larger tooth [...]
HPI is taking their ultimate basher and scaling it down. Right now they are referring to it as the “Small Scale” Savage. It’s a completely new design for 2011 and features the looks and style it’s big brother. The chassis is that familiar Savage TVP design, the drive train is shaft driven 4wd with metal gears, and the electronics package [...]
From the people that fueled the mini craze with their Mirco RS4’s, HPI is introducing the RS32! This is a 1/32 scale vehicle, it comes RTR with a 2.4Ghz radio, charger, battery, a few extra gears and anything else you may need. This first vehicle (I’m sure there are more styles on the way) comes with the Calsonic Nissan Skyline body. [...]
HPI Racing has some new gear for the recently released Baja 5SC and the Baja 5T. The new TR-10 wheels are true bead locks that will hold your tires securely without glue. The wheels are available in four finishes: white, black, gunmetal gray, and chrome. The fronts measure in at 120x60mm and have a 4mm offset while the rears are [...]
The folks from Exotek just released a new chassis brace for the HPI Blitz. Any time a company shows a little love towards the Blitz it makes me smile. The new brace strengthens one of the weaker points on the chassis and helps prevent the front from damage. They are available in orange or black. [...]
The guys at HPI Racing have a thing for real on road cars. Nearly their entire on road setup consists of officially licensed body styles from most all of the big name auto companies. So it only makes sense that they would introduce a new 200mm sedan body based on one of the most well known modern muscle cars. The [...]
Need some bling for your Blitz? ST Racing Concepts has a bunch of awesome looking hop-ups for the HPI Blitz! They have new front and rear aluminum skid plates as well as hex adapters. These things are CNC’d out of a solid block of aluminum so they can also take some bashing abuse! They are [...]
