Baja 5B Flux SBK Kit

The Baja 5B is back as a kit!

Big scale fans, we hear you! The ORIGINAL HPI Baja 5B is BACK and ready to build from A to Z! The HPI SBK (Self Build Kit) collection is expanding with not just one, but two 1/5 scale model kits! Fans of large-scale off-road RC cars will be thrilled to be able to build their own Baja 5B, powered by internal combustion GAS or AC electric FLUX drive!


The Ultimate HPI Self Build Kit!!

Build a legend! Experience the thrill of building a car that reaches a length of over 80cm and a weight of almost 10 kilograms! During construction, you just add your own electronic components (in the case of the internal combustion version, an additional engine) and you will be ready for any adventure!

When the HPI Baja 5B Buggy was first introduced, large scale models were very expensive and challenging for the average RC modeler. But now, using highly durable materials and innovative design solutions, HPI is bringing this massive off-roader to new enthusiasts, ushering in a new era of BIGGER RC cars!

Both the HPI Baja 5B and Baja 5B FLUX are equipped with extra large and durable chassis components! With its expertly designed composite suspension, extra-long adjustable HD shocks and giant impact-resistant nylon wheels, the Baja 5B is ready to race on any off-road course!
