The one and just original HPI Baja 5B is BACK and ready for you to construct from the ground up! The HPI SBK collection of Self Develop Packages grows with the addition of not simply one, but 2 1/5th scale HPI kits! Fans of electrical off-road RC will be very excited to construct their own brushless-powered 1/5th scale with the HPI Baja 5B FLUX Self Build Package!

Simply install your own electronic devices as you construct the Baja 5B FLUX and you'll be ready for any adventure that comes your way!

With extra-tough drivetrain parts taken straight from the gasoline-powered version such as the viscous torque differential, super-durable composite spur equipment with internal damping and all-metal drivetrain, the Baja 5B FLUX is ready for approximately 8S of raw LiPo power, so you can see speeds of over 50 miles per hour!

The Baja 5B FLUX is also geared up with extra-big and super-tough suspension parts, including awesome HPI resilience! With its skillfully developed molded composite suspension plus extra-long adjustable HD shocks, and massive high impact nylon 3-piece beadlock wheels, the Baja 5B is ready for full-speed racing on any off-road circuit!

The 4mm thick 6061 aluminum monocoque chassis fits a big battery box and has area for the BIGGEST brushless motors you can discover for RC, and also features an adjustable motor install.
