When I saw Ken Block ripping one of these, I had to get this NEW HPI Sport 3 Flux. A 70+ Mph Ford Mustang Mach-E 1400 RC Car (Brushless). Straight out the box it has some problems, but once they were sorted it runs really nice. 70+ Mph speed run attempt as soon as the speed gears arrive (well, weather dependant)

I recently got an HPI RS4 creator kit, fitted one of their '98 Imprezza Monte Carlo bodies, some Amazon aluminium rims with Fastrax rally blocks & the brushless system from my Mad Van VE & I've got to say I'm pretty impressed with it, it handles really well, you can powerslide it with ease & it's nice & quick on 2S. 3S is a bit much, especially in the wet. I also fitted a set of shocks from a Vaterra Kemora to give it the ride hight it needed. Oh.. It constantly gets stones jammed in its steering so I've velcro'd an old buggy body over the chassis & it's fine now.

I got a E-Tron and left the long version in your shorts.... No wait, I left a longer version of my take on this car on the E Stang SHORT you posted. I really like this HPI platform, it needed the tweaks with the body and yes it's a smooth surface chassis. I did not have any steering link issues yet but thankyou to everyone that brought attention to the issues with that. So as RTR touring cars. HPI , then the ol' V100 (price point), then the Fazer (what were they thinking? Where are the freakin spare parts and upgrades?!) Tamiya and Traxxas, crickets.

@michaeldorich4485 Год назад
Your review is excellent and you probably saved some people from frustration on Christmas morning. If you opened the box as a present and took it out for a run and found the chassis scraping everywhere you might be upset. When you look at its competition there may be other choices like the brushless Kyosho Fazaer Mk, 2, the Associated Hoonicorn with battery, and the Traxxas 4-Tecs with great looking bodies might be better. Thanks for your review. Keep up the good work.

@@TomleyRC Quality control has been a problem for a very long time. I was working with school club 20 years ago or more and we had a deal for the old RS4 Sports. We had to check each car for screws that were not completely screwed in, some screws were too long and the diff wouldn't turn and the steering racks were often missing an e clip and the rack would just come apart.

Anyone thinking of buying this platform needs to be confident with maintenance as well. Suspension changes are a most unless you've got clean concrete floors you can run on and on tarmac you can easily chew through tyres on 3s batteries. I'm also on my second spur gear after only 3 months of intermittent running and stones like to jump up and jam the steering servo. I like it now but when I first got it felt like I'd been ripped off and it took some problem solving. Definitely buyer beware.

My thoughts…the front chin spoiler and how the lexan folds up is more than likely contributing to your steering issues. As the car gains speed, the air flow acts like a lift and you have inconsistent traction at the front. I would probably try to flatten that section of the chin spoiler so it stays parallel to the surface. Worst case, cut it off and create a new front spoiler. Later!

Had one, mate had two, to make it short, i sold mine faster than it came in. Mate had to spend tons on repairs and lost his appetit in rc-ing. Bought a while ago some serpents with other friends for some competition (parking lot and beach like racing). Know one thing for sure, a Bandit would never keep up, maybe in a straight line (we did put some serious motors in it btw, so even that is questionable) but never broke a damn thing besides a bearing and a chassis in a hard crash with the curb. I think that's how it should be. Every brand that makes good products needs a fair chance. Think hpi is one of them...

So I've managed to get the ground clearance sorted out but now when driving after a while the steering locks up to the left and after a few minutes it unlocks for 4 to 5 minutes then locks up again could that be the receiver not set up right as I am still using the factory setting on the controller. I haven't turned none of the dials they are all at the same place as I got it straight from the box. Any advise would be great fully appreciated. Thank you.

If you shop at Aldi try their new Honduras carbon neutral coffee. It’s whole bean and I like the light roast. It’s available internationally. I had to stop buying local roasters coffee as it was $16 per bag usd. The Aldi coffee was $5.99 per bag. It was surprisingly good

Adjustable turnbuckles would sure help BUT that's a bandaid on an open wound no? Why not give a hair dryer or heat gun (ON LOW LOL) try distorting that wheel well just a bit to flair out over the tire? That same trick, with a ruler to help it stay flat, would help the front splitter be straight too! Just a thought 🤷‍♂️

I did heat and straighten it, it a few taps on the curbs and it was up again 🤷🏼‍♂️

The wheels/hexes/bearings? are really bad for binding up when you tighten the wheel nuts.. Like ridiculously so, just the tiniest fraction too tight & they bind. The fronts are the worst. I've had the hubs apart, swapped multiple hexes & pins, I've tried spacer shims in various configurations but so far the only solution that works is a bit of threadlock (I hate using it on axles) & paying careful attention to how much you tighten the nuts... Even a sixteenth of a turn will bind them up.!!! If anyone has a solution I'd be very grateful to hear it.

I hate how they make everything the plastic nonadjustable out the box, no adjustable toe links or camber links. Everything plastic. and that splitter edging up would bug me too, heat gun to the rescue.

Turnbuckles as really not that expensive either. I guess it’s the extra cost of getting someone to set them up. Real shame
