This is the HPI Racing Trophy Buggy 3.5 RTR 1/8 4WD Off-Road Nitro Buggy. The HPI Trophy range of off-road racers has been updated with the latest in 2.4GHz radio technology, waterproof servos and an enclosed receiver & battery compartment!
The Trophy 3.5 buggy is the perfect way to get into nitro 1/8 buggies! Rally cross buggies are one of the biggest racing classes around the world, and it's still growing fast! This kit has got everything you need for anything you want to do. For bashing fun and big-air stunts, it has a durable aluminum chassis, braces and shock towers, and for race track performance and tuning the Trophy is equipped with a powerful race-legal Nitro Star F3.5 (.21 cubic inch) HPI engine, HB Proto design racing tires, oil-filled shocks, turnbuckles and plenty of tuning adjustment possibilities.
In addition to being race-bred and ready for track action, the updated Trophy 3.5 looks great, too. The sleek aerodynamic racing bodyshell features an updated paint design, and the HB Proto tires are wrapped around cool black chrome Edge 7-spoke wheels. The rear wing isn't just for looks, either - it gives the Trophy loads of down force and control in the air. To top everything off, we've updated the anodizing of the shock caps, wheel nuts and more to HPI-spec bright orange!
