The exciting 1/5th scale Baja 5SC short course truck gets the 29 treatment! The Baja 5SC SS29 comes as an unassembled kit that you get to build from the ground up. If you enjoy the process of custom building your own R/C vehicles, the Baja 5SC SS29 is the kit for you.

The Baja 5SC SS29 is more than just a kit version, it's packed with extra speed and a long list of option parts. The powerplant has been upgraded to the high performance Fuelie 29s engine, coupled to a high flow aluminum tuned pipe with steel tubular header. Combined with the 8,000 RPM clutch, the Baja 5SC SS29 has some serious grunt to help propel it to speeds in excess of 40MPH! Need to quiet things down a bit? HPI also included a stock can muffler just in case.

The Baja 5SC SS29 follows the HPI innovation of upgraded 'Super Sport' models that feature kit versions of popular HPI RTR models, with additional option parts added to enhance the enjoyment of your kit. A long list of option parts are included with the SS version of the Baja 5SC. As you build the kit, you add in the options that come in the box, and add your own radio gear (receiver, throttle servo, and receiver battery). As with all HPI cars and trucks, you get a full, in-depth instruction manual with step by step instructions that allow you to easily disassemble and reassemble your truck for maintenance and easy servicing. The HPI RC Car DVD is your personal RC car expert in a box!

Features:
 

• HIGH PERFORMANCE 29CC TWO-STROKE ENGINE: The powerful Fuelie 29 gasoline engine propels the Baja 5SC SS29 to speeds in excess of 40mph. With a dual-element air filter, easy pullstarting and convenient Torx T-27 screws, it's easy to keep running on standard pump fuel and 2-cycle engine oil. And best of all, you can run for more than 45 minutes on a single tank of gas!
• ALUMINUM TUNED PIPE INCLUDED: The header is made from large diameter steel tubing for extra strength. The stinger design is optimized for a perfect fit in the Baja rear cage.
• 8,000 RPM LIGHTWEIGHT CLUTCH: This lightweight racing clutch combined with the heavy duty spring gives the 5SC SS29 a powerful launch at high RPMs for faster acceleration!
• HEAVY DUTY BEADLOCKS: Reinforced design Increases durability of the wheels and tires.
• SUPER HEAVY DUTY PARTS: Because of the ever-increasing power demands of Baja owners around the world, and the constant desire to cram as much power in the Baja chassis as possible, HPI has added all-new SUPER Heavy Duty drivetrain parts that will make sure the Baja 5SC SS29 can handle extreme conditions and massive power!
  • SUPER HEAVY DUTY DRIVE SHAFTS: Extra-thick 9mm dogbones are the starting point of the 5SC SS29 drivetrain upgrade - these are thicker and stronger to outlast the roughest rides and racing action you can find! New wider rubber boots are included to keep the dirt and mud away.
  • SUPER HEAVY DUTY DIFF SHAFTS: Getting the power from the diff gears to the new dogbones is a wider diff shaft that perfectly fits the increased diameter of the dogbones.
  • SUPER HEAVY DUTY DRIVE AXLES: Getting the power to the wheels are Super HD drive axles, which fit the thicker dogbones.
• HEAVY DUTY FRONT WHEEL HUBS: To keep in sync with the super heavy duty drivetrain, the Baja 5SC SS also comes with Heavy Duty front wheel hubs. These axles utilize a screw and nut design that eliminates the previous use of an e-clip, which furthers the reliability of the truck.
• VISCOUS TORQUE DIFF: Unique in the world of large-scale racing, the HPI Viscous Torque Differential gets the power to the rear wheels as smooth as silk. It's easy to tune with optional diff oils and is fully fitted with hardened metal gears and an alloy case.
• ALL METAL GEAR TRANSMISSION: From the input shaft and idler gear to the alloy-encased differential, every gear inside the sturdy Baja 5SC SS transmission is made from long-life alloy to keep your truck running all day long with minimal maintenance.
• LONG TRAVEL SUSPENSION: The awesome Baja suspension really comes into its own with long-stroke VVC/HD shock absorbers and high-sidewall truck tires, letting the tires do their business whether you're driving over rutted-out whoops or flying over a big tabletop.
• HEAVY DUTY SHOCK ABSORBERS: VVC/HD shocks deliver improved handling over rough terrain and feature large 6mm diameter shock shafts for increased durability. Threaded shock bodies are used for easy adjustment of ride height.
• DUAL VENTED DISC BRAKES: Steel/aluminum hybrid brake rotors and semi-metallic brake pads handle braking duties, while a special venting system keeps the brakes cool for consistent stopping power.
• LARGE 700cc FUEL TANK: For runtimes of up to 45 minutes, the Baja 5SC SS fuel tank holds up to 700cc of pre-mixed fuel - that's over half a liter! And just in case you clip a track barrier and flip over, the tank is equipped with a 'clunk' device that allows the engine to continue running even if the truck is resting on its roof.
• SFL-11MG SERVO: The hi-torque SFL-11MG servo features extra tough all metal gears for durability, an aluminum steering arm and a water resistant case.
• SEALED RADIO BOX: An enclosed radio box keeps water and dirt away from the 2.4GHz receiver and receiver battery. The on/off switch and recharging jack are sealed with soft rubber plugs for additional protection.
•  DIRT GUARDS: The Baja 5SC SS SS has full-length dirt guards to keep mud, rocks and water out of the main chassis area. The guards continue all the way to the engine and help keep cleaning time to a minimum. Mud flaps on the rear bumper add to the realistic Short Course appearance.
