HPI Racing Trophy 3.5 RC Car Nitro Buggy RTR - 107012

Product Information

I find that priming with my finger over the exhaust, until fuel gets to the top of the engine feedpipe, and then ten more pulls gives it enough fuel to get a good start. Just make sure your glowplug is fully charged. I also heat the engine with a hairdyer, if at home, or with the engine up to the car heater vents, with full heat, for a minute or two helps to warm the engine up.

Featuring a fresh new chassis look with orange anodised components, the HPI Trophy buggy looks better than ever! a 4.6 .28 engine will fit in the trophy with ease. (just liek the hypers with .28 engines ect) and will handle the extra power, but its weather you can I have had the use of a starterbox to help the break in process ( on the 4th tank atm) but didn't have to use it from tank 3 as she fired up on just the pull start (be it after the 10th, 15th pull) test will be if she fires up again now after 3-4 day break without the starterbox. Ready to go straight from the box, just charge up your batteries and youre ready to crush the opposition! Building on the success of the HPI Trophy Truggy, the HPI Trophy Flux brings brushless power to the renowned HPI platform!Looking a roto starters and box starters atm and cant make my mind up which one is the better. I like the idea of still having the pull start option still and with going with a roto starter I wont have this option, but the starter box option seems a bit heavy and needs a car battery available. Equipped with a nitro engine, the HPI Racing Trophy 3.5 Buggy delivers high-speed action and exhilarating acceleration. Its 2.4 GHz frequency band ensures a reliable and uninterrupted connection with the remote control, allowing for precise control even in crowded areas. Additionally, this radio controlled toy is water resistant, offering protection against unexpected splashes or wet conditions. Originally we were just for the Trophy 4.6 Truggy, but as the Trophy 3.5 Buggy is so similar, we let them in too!! And HPI are also releasing electric versions of the cars, who are going to be welcome here!!

HPI Ready-To-Run vehicles bring you the same high performance and quality that you’d expect from a high end RC kit but with the added convenience of being factory pre-assembled to the highest standards – giving you a high performance RC car straight from the box! A fantastic list of hop-ups can be found here, it also includes non-HPI stuff: http://www.beatyourt...ium-hop-up-list If the body shell of your HPI Trophy 3.5 is broken, ripped or damaged in any way, this can be easily repaired with rubber solution glue. Also, for added protection and if available for your Trophy 3.5 model, fit an under guard to stop dirt and gravel entering the chassis. a 3 port will have a massive amount of low end torque, a 7 port will have lots of top end speed and power, were as a 5 port will have more best of both middle end. To increase the chassis stiffness, it’s fitted with metal rod braces front and rear – this allows the suspension to do all the work it’s designed to do for improveed driving feel and control without chassis twist or bending getting in the way.I am also new to this game and got a HPI trophy 3.5 for xmas aswell, and had the same problems. Mine ran for one tank of fuel but was really "lumpy" and any throttle increase made her stall. I then tried a second tank but she wouldn't start even with a third throttle. My issue was with a duff glowplug, and the mixture wasn't rich enough. After an adjustment of the HSN and a new medium glowplug she runs like a dream. She still needs final tuning, but at least I have had two tanks of fuel through her to get oval runs done. Theres also the Associated rc8, Xray 808 hyper 9 ect... again who you ask will give a different response. Iv owned a few associate cars (b44, tc5r to name a few) and tbh that put me off for life, but thats me. The 808 looks stunning but i think its dated to some now, but they released an overhal kit to upgrade it. Please note: This HPI vehicle is designed to provide water protection so it can be driven in wet conditions (e.g. rain, snow, puddles). Not for submersion. Nitro engines are splash protected and require extra care when running in wet conditions. See manual for details. This service does not deliver on a Saturday or Sunday. If you would like Saturday delivery please call us on 01782 409310. A steel spur gear takes the power from the engine and transmits it through a central differential, which transfers power to the front and rear diffs by long central driveshafts. The front and rear bevel differentials use 4 internal gears for excellent durability over standard 2-gear diffs. The diff outdrives turn tough steel outdrives and axles, and 17mm orange anodized aluminum hex adapters spin the 7-spoke wheels, which are wrapped with Team HB Proto design rubber racing tires.

That's right, one of our most popular nitro kits ever now has been upgraded to make it a performer just about anywhere! The Trophy 3.5v2 buggy is the perfect way to get into nitro 1/8 buggies! The chassis of the HPI Racing Trophy 3.5 Buggy is also made of aluminum, providing stability and durability during intense races. It features a built-in servo, which enhances the responsiveness of the vehicle to the user's commands. There are essentially three reasons you might want to buy a used HPI Trophy 3.5 Nitro Buggy; you may be a collector, looking to restore and display it; restore and sell for a profit; or simply restore and race an iconic vintage model. Personally, I used to get a buzz out of restoring an old clapped-out model, installing modern day electrics and maybe a few hop-ups, then showing the gang at our local club, just how competitive those old models could still be.
