- Hpi Released the re-release BAJA5B as a self-build kit, but not before sending us the Gasoline motorless kit to build up, check out, and share our thoughts. The problem is, I'm completely biased! This is my all-time favorite kit to build! If you haven't built up a Baja 5b from kit form you're missing out on an amazingly rewarding killer time. Watch me build the kit motorless for now, and subscribe for the next installment when we get a package from DDM! The best place for all your Upgrade needs.

HPI SENT US THE RE-RELEASE, PRE-RELEASE!!! WHAT?!? It's not even out yet?! | BAJA 5B SBK GASOLINE - Zábava
Thanks for the amazing content! Looking forward to seeing what goes in it!
Thank you guys for this re-release
So what's the next Re-release guys? 😁👌
Y'all are awesome for hooking up my boy KPOP. Thank you.
What happened to hpi quality over the years . It’s not great . I had the fluxxs and it was great but parts were hard to find
Thanks HPI for listening. 👍👏👏
KPOP! When two legends come together in one video. The real Bajas are the friends we made along the way (or something like that). Really glad you got THE FIRST gas kit in all of North America. Couldn't have gone to a more deserving person.
THANKS BUDDY! can't wait to see what you send us for this soon to be brap brapper.
Wait, they gave you one too?! 😉
I might have one or two around here somewhere...❤
Going to SBG channel next to see the Flux built and ran!
I never thought they bring back something that people use to love back then. I remember they existed and I did remember their was an electric version of the 5B back then. First the HPI WR8 Subaru Rally Car and now this. Time flies by so fast and I’m glad to hear HPI is back in their game. I hope they bring back some of this famous 1/10 rc cars soon.
They're working hard to bring back everything they can. They lost the manufacturer and a lot of things have to be sourced and found before things get back to production 100%. but they're getting there. I for one hope they bring back the savage kit.
Can't wait to get me one, let's go HPI 🤙😎
Finally in a sea of clones a legend reappears
It’s a blessing day to all gear heads & rc enthusiast. Thanks HPI & congrats to you Kpop and Matt. Also that to Josh for bringing the news update. Now go hang that where the tv goes while you wait for the rest. 😆 👍
You sir, are so worthy. That's so freakin awesome, can't wait to see you guys play cars!
This looks really great. Hopefully HPI continues to shake up the past and bring more parts and kits out.
This is absolutely amazing, Can't wait to grab one for myself! Thank you so much KPOP! I feel like You, Nash and the gang are totally responsible for this epic re release!!!
Wow! What a beast! Outstanding work HPI! Can’t wait to see one in person.
Just wow, how do you not have more views on this!! Amazing showing and delivery of content about this legacy of a car! You brought back so many memories to me as I have been an HPI fan since I was a kid! I can not wait till I get my hands on one of those beautiful rigs!
Bringing back a legend, nice job HPI 👍
Picked up my kit. Thanks KpopRC for these amazing videos and thanks to Hpi for bringing this amazing car back
That is probably the most beutifull thing i have seen in my entire life, what a blast of a car. I just bought the Rovan 01 "Stealth" Baja car yesterday and i am waiting for it, for many years ago i was also driving a smaller buggy for some time, now i am getting back to the hobby, i am tired of beeing alot indoor infront of screens so i really need this. In time i wanna build a car like this from the ground up when i get a little more familiar with all the mechanics. I love this car so much, great video, greetings from Denmark. ❤
That awesome man... good stuff.
Cheers 👍
Great to see the legend that started it all return. I'm glad to see it comes in build yourself format that's my specialty. I will definitely do a build on my channel to honour hpi and show the respect it deserves. Great video 🔥
SICK! i'll be watching!
That’s sik dude congrats on the shiny new Baja can’t wait to see it brappin ❤❤
Glad I still have my old Baja 5b! Running strong after all these years!!!
Awesome video, wicked editing. You have a sub.
I’m not familiar with the Baja but I’ve seen them a lot online and in other videos. I love the black and white scheme and can’t wait to build one of my own (electric probably). Thank you HPI for re-releasing the Baja.
Can’t wait To get my hands on one . I have two OG Baja and I love them . Also I peeped that pfi shirt ! That’s AWSOME
Nice build. I seen the MCD Racing hex drivers all over the video build. Love it....
HELL YEA... even without a motor, good to see the best RC buggy ever built back out and available again.
Great content man. You inspired me when i found your channel to go buy 3 used bajas. Now there is a new release, will deffo be getting one. Cant wait to see what you boys get up to. Supporting from the UK 🤙🏻
right?! the bug is real! Even if it's just to get parts this is great news for hpi baja owners!
Can’t wait! Couldn’t afford one as a kid, so it’s time to relive that fantasy!
it's the best thing ever. lol. it will absolutely not disappoint.
When I started in the hobby some 38yrs ago all RCs came as kits and half the fun was assembling them. 😊
I’m really excited about this Re release. 5th scale is where it’s at. I just have an original ready to run that I’ve built up but recently got it running again. It’s just fantastic! Great video btw😎.
This is awesome, im excited to watch it when you finish my friend …
Warms my heart to see you get one of these brand new after all the busted 5th scales you’ve been bringing back to life recently. Well earned.
lol... busted ass for sure. you forget until you handle a fresh one.
Cardinal Racing: you nailed it looking forward for you visiting out shop soon! Best person to get it period......!!!!
i see baja i click like, i am a simple man :D very nice that the Baja is back
Top video/review! I am getting a Hpi Baja SBK definitely!
It's been ordered! Yippee 😀
I'd be loosing my mind, looks amazing. Great timing HPI!
Good to see HPI making a resurgence!
Very cool man, it’s good to see the legend is back 👍
Very nice. Very nice. Thanks for the video
Very cool. Enjoyed the video. Honestly though. Is there anyone here who didn't frown a little or say "dang" when they saw that eclips were part of the build? I'd be okay if those things fully went away forever never to return.
lol. totally.
GREAT NEWS BROTHER!!! I still wait for mine... hpi great again!!!!
thats so freakin sick and good news hpi still in the business
Hell yeah man!
I can totally just about remember the smell when you first open the box
This looks fun to do 👍🏽 I want one now just to do now in the winter comes.
hell yeah og baja is back
Super pissed I never got the notification on this video. I here now but I want one so bad and been waiting for this day..
nice video === im a big fan of hpi i have like 4 savage flux:s a couple nitro savage trucks and of cource the hpi baja 5b glad to see its coming back 👍👍
Nice video!
Very exciting. I'd love to see a nostalgic release of the original Savage 21 with the purple body!
I always wanted the baja 5b kit for 8 years! I'm pretty much an hpi fanboy! :D
SAME! you're in the right place!
Amazing, i just dragged my 3 hpi bajas out of mothballs and started putting them back together a few weeks ago. Great to see the company that started it all back in the game again.
oh man! just wait for that smile ear to ear when runnin them.
Awesome!
I’m soooo damn happy HPI is back. I would never support the clone companies and anyone who truly love 5ths shouldn’t. Support our innovators not the imitators !!
love that! Im with you nitro!
I've checked and #4846 Paddles are in stock 🥳
YES!
I will get one I have lots of R/C most 10rh scale electric but I do have DBXL 2.0 and it's definitely my favorite, so bad ass, big, real the smell is awesome when using top shelf oil, it's like driving a real buggy....it's just awesome....your channel rocks💯
thanks, andy!
Modding a baja has to be one of the most fun things I’ve ever done, hours and I means day and years of just countless tweaking 😂🤘 love 2 stroke 5th scale 🙌
it's the best for sure!
Baja is back 🥰🥰🥰
Congrats KPOP, exciting to see the HPI Baja back, 14 years ago there where a group of guys in southern California that really put the Baja on the map, too bad HPI could not have got a couple kits out to them as well, OG's, you know who you are :) Also, your shout-out to DDM was spot on. Brad and Steve are awesome people.
I just started looking into doing a scratch build 5B. That’s a be insane if they came out with a new one. 1/5 scale gas is back baby!!
New subscriber here, Matt sent me!! lol Can't wait to see how both of your guys' Baja builds turn out!! ❤️
my brap brap is in the mail. muahahahaha.
I remember way back when someone had an endurance race with these. It was amazing
i hope we make it back to those days.
Saw sbg video earlier he gave you a big shout out saw you video had to watch at least you got further than opening the box and looking at the bags
I have watched this build video like a dozen times now and I think I am convinced. Will spend my christmas bonus on this thing.
I think I will go with a Zenoah G320RC and a Mielke exhaust (have run one on my 4.6cc nitro and despite being quieter, gave the engine ALOT more power).
you won't regret it. it's such a great rc to build and to run.
HPI may have redeemed themselves with the decision to re-release the 5B, one of, if not my all time favourite RC!
agreed! i don't think they're done bringing back old hpi platforms. lets hope for a savage kit! am i rite?
@@kpopRC It'd be the MT2 18SS for me, or even an electric roller!
Dude I had a 5b edition with the performance exhaust pipe years ago and miss is so much…was a lot of fun and ran better than my nitro truck👍🏻
Hrmmm, nostalgia hittin' pretty good right now..🥺
Realizes I have a billet decked HPI savage converted Vorza truggy roller tucked away in storage I should really dig out and do somethin' with. 🤔
Not nearly as legendary or cool as the 5b, Real glad to see it come back.😎
do it quinn! go get vorza and rip some packs.
Holy cow I still have my original BAJA! I’m gonna hav3 to take a serious look at the new one.
Thank you
i mean.. now you have quality parts made of proper materials.
Would love to have one of those to race at Line 29!! Maybe one day I'll have one... lol
Awesome hobby to get into it does get expensive for upgrades but in the end it's worth it got mine second hand and build it again it had a 26cc in it now its a 32cc a beast
we did kind of a cost comparison and we found the fifthscale is cheaper than most bashers, and most 8th scale racing platforms. once you factor in batteries.
Dope 👍🤟
Still have mine ....the most enjoyable buggy I've ever had ...
Okay it's finally time I get one of these. I live in the desert
SO SICK.... YOU GO HPI !! SO COOL YES .................KP UUUUUUUUU GOOOOOOOOO BOYYEEEEE
GOD DAMN, THIS TIME I WILL!!!
Thanks for the vid. Reminds me of the early years of RC when
JESUS CLIPS (e clips)were on everything…. well that’s what my automotive teacher called them especially when they would go flying
Lets goooooo
Boiz be back in town lol
Dope! Now if people will stay loyal to the brand maybe we can keep ‘em around. 🤘 love my SS.
TOTALLY. people like to make up stories so they don't feel bad about buying clones.
@@kpopRC Get off your high horse. They all break, and they all come from China. The HPI just has shinier plastic
Think you should do the bodywork white/grey to tie Into the colour scheme of the beadlocks and metalwork! 😁👌
I Still have my original SS. I bought two as well as a 5T. I gave my 5T to my older sister and one of my SS's to my nephew. I built both SS's because that's what I enjoy. I still have the first SS though. I've been out of the RC world for a few years and was just starting to get back into it again starting around thanksgiving. I got my old SS out that's set around for years not running and was going to get it running again when I found out about the re-release of the Baja 5B SBK and had to have it. I finally found a dealer that had one in stock and got it just before Christmas. I'm still awaiting for a few minor parts to finish the build. I can't wait to get out and run my SS against my new SBK. Now if only HPI would re-release the Savage in kit form again. I know they would have at lease one sale here, maybe two.
Oh dude. im waiting for that savage kit too! Nothing better than a baja build though!
Brasil loved yuor videos
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Daaang this might be my first non-electric RC
DOOO IT! lol
HELL YEAH DOOD. That's So Sick.
Hey at least they are going in the right direction. Now that have to bring back the rs4 baby!
oh man could you imagine?
Have an original 20th anniversary 5t and will never let it go! Screw those rovan clones! Hope they re release the 5t!!! Come on hpi! I want to give you my money! Bring back the 5t!!!
This makes me happy as shit. I just picked up an authentic complete chassis of a Baja 5B and a 5SC conversion kit for it (Has some RPM parts). I was struggling to find good parts for it. Rovan is ok but their quality is definitely subpar and I would assume the same of King which also produces parts for these. There is some stuff missing but for the price I am not disappointed cause it is in excellent condition.
Another thing I was struggling to find was the freaking manual for sale, not just a PDF, as well as a build manual at all. I cant find on even in a PDF. Basically mine is at the point you had yours at 13 minutes in, add shocks and take away the read diff and fuel tank and thats the build state mine sits currently.
sweet man! hope the build finishes smoothly!
@@kpopRC thank you!
Im going to stand by for the moment and see what HPI does re-release cause I'd rather get the parts from them, unless ofc I go for an aluminum build.
PFI Speed shirt huh. I follow those guys. They seem chill ass dudes. They aren't far from me maybe 8 hour drive
Reed case race engine would be cool. But also a big ALX would be crazy.
yeah. so overkill. on 4wd it would make sense. on this if you can't get the power down, what's the point?
Is this real? This can’t be real! Holy snapping duck shit, this is real! Thank you HPI racing! Thank you KPoP RC! About damn time HPI racing! What took so long? And where’s the OG purp 🤤
The excitement is indescribable, I’m so happy they’re back! HPI quality💪 the original and the best! Now Imagine if traxxas brought back the 1/6 gas monster buggy they did in the 90’s😂
Hey K-pop rc 👍
Is it expected to have a significant difference in quality or performance when compared with Rovan or KM buggies?
Very happy to see HPI back in the game!!!
EXTREM quality improvements. for one, these are original molds. Not back room castings made by slave children. lol.
@@kpopRC lol… what makes you think that HPI does not do the same thing coming from China???
This is what a PROPER 5th scale RC looks like. Not like the Kraton's etc
I have a kraton 6s that's soposed to 1/8 scale. 1/8th of what idk but it's still a beast.
@@coryharlow995 Yeah they're awesome rigs dude. It's just they call the larger ones 5th scale when they're not :)
@@vanenmar7491 I completely agree. That's why I said 1/8 of what exactly.
.. the unforgettable smell.. 😄
Where is the Double Thumps Up Button? 😃
lol! YES BUD!
I hopefully they eventually bring back the 5T and 5SC
me too dude!
woooowwww
As an old school hpi fan im happy for the come back. But with all these releases one thing thats still void… parts support. I bought the 2022 wr8 and still cant get so much as an a arm.. and they bust of you look at them wrong lol. So my whole wr8 is on integy.
That sucks man. im sure there's going to be growing pains with new leadership at hpi. Give them a bit more time.
My first video and it was awesome can't believe I haven't come across the channel before now. Can't wait for the next one and it definitely needs paddles
I got mine done and it’s awesome. Do you have any worries that the lower body pieces block the airflow to the engine? Thanks for being the inspiration for me to buy this kit.
they like to suck up leaves. so yes you need to be careful and clean those pockets under there regularly. also look into outerwares for your engine pull start and block.
Nice car but I wish they would make a cab forward shell for these like the mcd rr5 . That would finally swing it for me to get one. The desert buggy look is a cool and old school but the cab forwards look modern and mean!
the rr5, is the way to go. lol. for parts support alone.
very nice. do you already know which engine to put in?
it's a bit of a surprise. but looks like a 32cc monster.
finally
Really cool build vid. Not gonna lie, I want one of these kits. I already have a 5b Flux though and completely stripped down, repaired and rebuilt one for my son.
Have you got an OG Kyosho Ultima 1/10?
nope but I drool over it every now and again
@@kpopRC Yeah it’s just I read on a site years ago that the same person designed both the og Ultima and the 5b. I mentioned it to your buddy who is building the Flux. Probably needs confirmation now I think about it.
