- This little Hpi ( well the wing and conversion kit are hpi at least...) Baja surprised me... It took a gear up and some very aggressive nail embedded tyres to do it! BUT WOW! it was fun and really got up and going 0n the 15/54 gearing. Next run will be similar but geared up some more to 20/54.....and after clocking 46mph i'm expecting at least 50!
The order is a bit wayward... but i will be releasing a video on the build hopefully soon all being well... so look out for that if you are interested. - Zábava
Awesome Baja E. This is the first time seeing one and it's amazing. The spiked tires are super cool as well. Nice job my friend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
9:04 isn't that what we all do?
RC is secretly rumoured to stand for Repairing Continuously 🤣
this video was enough to convince me after 2yrs + away from 1/5th i bought a roller last night ready for doing this to it lol
Love it dude fantastic looking performance machine.great work on the conversion.makes me want buy a roller now
Love the sound,awesome video
Glad you enjoyed
Wow man the kraken is so beautiful
😍
its is a beauty mate ;)
Wow you have some realy nice toys love that baha
Thank you
That's a king motor wheelie bar. I have it on my Rovan baja max FT TMR Edition "only one in the world at the moment😜" its a good wheelie bar, also love the tires! Its true all about that grip on bajas! I have a set of studded rear knobbies im trying it this weekend! I keep spinning on all services with the powerful TMR Race Port 45cc thats in it. Great video brother loved it! I like rc maxx products as well very good quality👍👊👌
Thanks mate. Think in this case it’s an integy wheelie bar. No doubt the same or very similar. Tmr 45cc in a baja? Sounds like fun!
Awesome vids Joel
Brilliant enjoyed that buddy
Glad you enjoyed it
Freaking awsome baja love it
Also love ur descibin ur cars or other team member love mcqueen
Love the video m8 I've got hpi baja flux running 8s 55/15 48mph so far and love it running the Castle creations xl2 and 2820 motor
Allan Tipler rc speed runner sweet! Yeah I was surprised how much fun it was. Just sold an arrma Kraton 8s and had this same motor/esc in my losi 5b to try the e 1/5 thing. Wasn’t happy with it. But it really seems to suit the baja. It’s very quick. That’s for sure. I’m trying 20/54 next. 👍👍
@@RCmaxxUK I'm waiting for a 16 pinion to come from China I've got 1718 but was trying to go up through this pinion sizes to get it right rc monkey and gave me some good tips on Facebook to start I love the way the power is delivered straight away and it gets up to speed in seconds I do love my brushless but still love my two stroke
@@RCmaxxUK there is some video of my 8s Baja on my CZcams
the HPI Baja is a nice Car! 👌
BlackMetal-RC85 👍👍😀
Awesome buggies 👍🏽
Excellent !!!
dangerous looking my lord is it that bad wow that suck folks are mad ..sweet set up
cool video man! i want one of those :)
cheers ! ;)
That electric Baja is a wheelie machine !! Like you said they aren't much good for anything else haha 👍
Jack S RC Cars ha! Yeah it was fun! Geared it up a bit more now for another run. Should be 50+ mph😜
@@RCmaxxUK awesome mate I can't wait to see that 👍👍👍
I like the new intro
cheers bro
Got the mcd astro max on my baja 5sc grips well
yes mate. need to try that setup ;) super light too
Those tires u run on all cars r meaty full of spikes
I run those supersnake tyres without the metal pins and its a ripper with wheelies and fun times.
On 8s
George Carter yes mate. I hear they are good as std. these cane like this so I use them when it’s reasonable to do so. Going to fot extenders and the mcd astromax. So light with great grip. Could be good....👍
NICE
mtctookie25 👍
How do you put screws in your tyres do you screw and glue from inside out then cut the screw
Video starts at 4:10
Where did you get those rear studded tires?
Hola! Donde puedo comprar la rueda trasera para que no huelque
How long does the brushless run on a charge
Awesome brother…What conversion kit did you use?
👍👍😎
What are them tires with the screws sticking out of them?
Can you do a proper speed run with the baja for us in another video? Be interested to see the difference between the elitric compared to the gas version. Wicked buggy though!
The electric one can do 60+ The gas is only good for 40+ Depends on what you want to spend on a good Motor
Ive been after a Baja ss can you even get them anymore?
Always loved the instant TQ of electric but growing up on nitro it simply could never compare. I just got my first 1/5 scale (Losi 5t 2.0) a month ago beautiful machine but I knew it was severely lacking in power when I got it and that's where I'm torn. The motors I'm looking at RCMAXX 55, 65, 71 supreme, 55 seems like after a few bash sessions I will want more power and the 71 with the 110 clutch will just constantly destroy the drivetrain as I plan to keep the 4wd so that just leaves the 65 which seems perfect. I plan on getting the RCMAXX billet chassis with the billet diffs and shock towers with upgraded axels and gears but I am kind of lost as to what else I should be looking at for a setup like that since I'm new to this whole 2 stroke 1/5 scale world so any information you are willing to share would be much appreciated, Thanks.
Hi mate. My mate Mick runs the 55 in his losi 5t and its a really nice setup i think. Anything above this is a risk on the drive line.I do like the 65 though myself too. Centre locker.... and then its steering/ servo tray stiffening/ changing and potential twin steering servos or at least a push pull setup.tyres are also a big consideration..... brps cost but are pretty much fit and forget....but have no softness. otherwise its upgrade deadlocks and gorilla glue / bigger screws plus a prayer ;)
Get on the live stream and ask us in the comments we, will do our best to help.....tomorrow 8pm UK
@@RCmaxxUK Ok sounds good thanks for the information definitely will check out some aftermarket servo trays/push pull setups and those BRP are pricey but are a must have from everyone that I talked to. Your buddy Mick I'm guessing is the one with the 55 supreme blue Losi is the main reason why I'm having such a hard time deciding because it's such a clean perfect balanced build but I'm such a power hungry guy I don't want to spend the money on the 55 and have it not be enough I live on farm land so space is no issue. I live in the states wish I had a crew like yours over by me to help out with tips and tricks little overwhelming but I will figure it out. I will try to get on your live stream but I work graveyard so timing is always going to be a issue, thanks for your response it was actually very helpful🙏
Are carbon fiber parts as strong as aluminum or metal parts? Also what kind of tires are the tires with the spikes? Nice video!
Carbon fiber like 5x stronger than aluminium
I,m going electric you just can't beat it.
What spec esc, motor kv, and batteries is it?
Good
Laurian Hochard 👌🏼
1/5 bajas are my speciality intresting to see a E baja 5b not many watching now 👍👊
Interestingly it seems it's actually cheaper to have a gasoline car than an electric once you get this large. Engines are pretty affordable, gas is cheap. Motors aren't bad but the esc and batteries are killer
And what motor and esc ?
has anyone made a jato brushless and are they better than the nitro?
Hello, is it possible to reverse in the electric version?
yes it would be
Engine and Esc ?
Love it!! ps. what are the run times with those lipo,s ? thanks
Were do you get these bigger engines that people but into there losi 5ive body
Tyler allen bigger engines? Alx from Italy. And rcmax from the uk👍😎
@@RCmaxxUK thank you bro keep making that good content
Where.can.i.buy.a.rc.max.electic.baga
What 2 stroke oil do you use
Lipo oil 🤧
2nd!
This is a great RC. Love those tyres. Not sure about distroying public oval field. Show some consideration yeah...
Did Traxxas make you change your name?
basically yes.....
Such a crap company
What gps you use bro
Josh Chatwin that is my mates garmin 205👍
Is it worth to upgrade to carbon fiber rear chassis ..
Mohanned AL-Deen I really like the carbon parts from bonehead rc. They are stunning to look at, light and strong. 👍. Wether it’s worth it is purely up to you 😀
@@RCmaxxUK I also have an electric Baja but I want more power from the same setup I have 8s XL2 800kv
And it's heavy really heavy .
@@mohannedal-deen1583 TP power 5860, about the most power you will fit in the castle mounting kit, not too expensive either. Also some Turnigy Graphene Panthers are good batteties or if you are super rich MaxAmps. Up to 8s this should give you more power with an xlx esc, if you want to go abive 8s then it gets expensive. I was halfway through building a brushless Baja, crazy 12s setup, then decided that's not why you buy a 1/5 scale and put an RcMax 71 in there instead. Electric is great in a 1/8 buggy, a TP 4070cm and 6-8s in a 1/8 is bonkers fast.
😎👍👍👍👍😎💨💨💨
vekta is a tool are those brp wheel and tyres
Yes mate. brp spikes
And there was me content with my 1/10 st bullet nitro.. looks like im going 1/5 now...😈
😂😂👍
I’ve got the Baja 5b would an rcmaxx55 engine fit in it and would a rcmaxx 65 fit in the Baja 5b to mate cheers
Yes it will fit but your pipe would be exposed. Your best option is to get a cage for it so that you can protect the pipe. Honestly I recommend the RCMAX 40GT....that engine is awesome !!!
I wanted that in my baja 5b to. They have all the parts needed. I saw the kraken and fallen in love with it. So bought that and the 65. 😂
Wots that wheelie bar called
Mate
EGGY it’s an integy part.... big bore wise. Yes 55/65 fits. 80 fits! But uses a longer rear chassis plate.
So if I have a 55 or 65 will it bolt on to my chassis Baja 5b and fit under my metal roll cage the same As your one in this video An will I need any think for it
Cus I don’t wonna buy an enginethen it won’t fit on
How much that baja cost
Josh Chatwin hi mate. It was made up from spares mostly. After upgrading a std car.
Just added the carbon parts and tr transmission case plus alloy bulkhead. Electronics are a relatively low spec setup, max5 esc and rocket 56112 780kv motor. Yes realistically to make it from nothing I guess it’s still £800? Maybe to £1000?🤔
really nice to see those old junk petrol engines gone brushless all the way
Nothing wrong with petrol...
@@k1ortia brushless is just better in every aspect... , the sound is the only reason why people keeps chosing petrol but still...is just to much hassle to maintain a nitro rc , and yes, part of the fun is the maintenance of the rc...but still
Petrol engines are fun electric are boring as
@@eggy8711 I can see the attraction of both. Early days for me, but so far I love my petrol baja, albeit a bit maintenance heavy.
Brushless seems a shit load faster though, and quieter.
hi buddy get yourself a metal detector and you will find your parts, thats what i do, regards mike.
lol elektro omg
