HPI Pro-D vs Tamiya TA03F

HPI have finally got the drop on their main drift rivals Yokomo, and come out with a ‘revolutionary’ drifting car – the HPI Pro-D. With a carbon main chassis, carbon upper deck and orange anodised aluminium bulkheads, it's a very slick design.  Only one question remains...

HPI Savage X 4.6 Review

 One of the most well known things about HPI is their "Savage" line up of vehicles. The savage has been around for many years, and has always been considered one of the toughest trucks on the block. With the Savage 21 RTR, Savage SS, Savage 25 RTR, Savage 25 SS, Savage X RTR, and Savage X SS, HPI has just recently released another Savage, the Savage X 4.6 RTR. The X 4.6 has all the same great qualites of the new Savage X RTR, but with even more. A much more powerful F4.6 .28 engine produced by HPI powers the rig, and to slow the big truck down, HPI added their dual red fibre brake system. Not only a much needed upgrade, but looks great too. This, and several other things were added to make the Savage even tougher than the rest.

HPI Wheely King 4X4 1/12th!

Not too long ago HPI announced the release of their Wheely King two wheel drive 1/12th scale monster truck. Many people became aroused by this, and once it was released, the truck became a huge hit. Soon after, it was becoming obvious that people really wanted a four wheel drive version of the truck. Although the two wheel drive version was exceptional, people started to seek less of the "Wheely" factor and more of the "King". HPI responded quickly, and soon after released a 1/12th scale Wheely King that was a 4X4! The RC community was very pleased, and the truck went flying off the shelves. With the refreshed demand for the Wheely King, it will forever be remembered as a hit RC product.
