Product Information

If youre looking for an entry into the exciting world of nitro Radio Control, then look no further than the HPI Trophy. Powered by the impressive HPI F3.5 engine and with a striking new paint scheme, the HPI Trophy buggy looks as fast as it is!

Thanks for that DLD, I am swayed by a starter box and thinking about it were I plan to drive around to I will need to drive there so power isn't an issue really.

The car is your typical 1/8 scale buggy design with 3 gear differentials that can be filled with different diff oils to change the handling of the buggy. This drive train design has also proven to be near built proof over many years. The HPI Racing Trophy 3.5 Buggy is a radio controlled toy that is designed for off-road racing enthusiasts. It features a durable and lightweight aluminum housing material, ensuring resilience against rough terrains. With its dimensions of 518 millimeters in length, 300 millimeters in width, and 180 millimeters in height, this 1:8 scale buggy offers a compact yet powerful performance.

Examine the drive shafts for wear and replace as required. If possible, change them for titanium. The steel shafts wear and bend too easily. Long travel suspension and high traction HPI tyres coupled with race inspired geometry ensure the Trophy handles just as well through the corners and rough stuff as it does in straight line drag racing. Power is nothing without control, so dual disc four wheel brakes ensure the Trophy can anchor up in no time at all. The Trophy Truggy FLUX is completely painted and assembled for you, fitted with an HPI 2.4GHz radio system and ready for you to add two 2S LiPo batteries! You'll get to experience 14.4 volts of monster power driving 1965KV of brushless power!

When I first showed up to test out the HPI Racing Trophy 3.5 buggy I was greeted with a nice surprise. The first thing I noticed was a very well built vehicle that looked much more like a race buggy than your typical “drive around and have fun” buggy. The fact is, if not for a pre-printed body, and a pull start engine you could easily mistake the Trophy 3.5 for a full on race buggy. 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. as for race rollers, it depends who you ask. Losi 8ight's and 8ight 2.0 are most common everywere iv race. Iv owned and raced a losi 8ight, but poersonally it didnt suit me, also losi suffer from the classic losi wobble were everything wobbles lol meaning bits need replacing frequently. 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. 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.This service does not deliver on a Saturday or Sunday. If you would like Saturday delivery please call us on 01782 409310. If you don’t want to make any changes and just get out and drive, that’s fine too! Absolutely everything is factory-fitted right out of the box, so you don’t have to change a thing if you want to just start up the Trophy 3.5 and have some fun.
