Hobao Hyper 8 Short Course 1/8

You'll need to purchase a motor and speed controller, as this is an 80% ARR (Almost Ready to Run) model. The chassis arrives pre-assembled with suspension, drivetrain, and body, so these are the main components required to complete it.

This ARR format is ideal for builders with some experience who want to avoid assembling a full kit from scratch. Installing a motor and speed controller requires basic mechanical knowledge, though the pre-assembled chassis reduces complexity significantly.

The product information doesn't specify battery type or charger compatibility. Check the manual or contact our support team to confirm which battery connector and voltage your chosen motor and speed controller require.

At 635mm long, 307mm wide, and 205mm tall, this is a substantial 1/8-scale truck—roughly the size of a small toolbox. Most standard cars will accommodate it, though you may want to measure your boot space to be sure.

The truck features CVD drive shafts at the front for durability, aluminium oil-filled shock absorbers for consistent damping, and a pivot ball suspension system. These components are designed to handle rough terrain and maintain performance across varied track conditions.
