Conquer the Trails with the HPI Racing Venture18 – 1/18 Scale RC Toyota Hilux Rock Crawler
Experience the thrill of off-road RC adventure with the HPI Racing Venture18, a feature-packed 1/18 scale crawler built for performance, realism, and rugged terrain. Inspired by the original Venture platform, this compact trail truck delivers serious capability with a durable formed steel C-channel chassis, all-metal 2-speed transmission, and full-time 4WD system designed for climbing, crawling, and exploring.
Don’t let its small size fool you — the Venture18 RC truck is loaded with high-performance features, including front and rear 4-link suspension, universal telescopic driveshafts, oil-filled aluminum shock absorbers, and locked differentials for unbeatable traction. Whether you’re navigating rocky trails or tackling tight indoor courses, the Venture18 offers precise handling and serious scale realism.
What sets the Venture18 apart is the officially licensed Toyota Hilux SR5 1985 body, reintroducing Toyota to the HPI Racing lineup. The pre-painted polycarbonate body is available in Gloss Black or Gloss Red with stripe livery, and includes fine-scale details like clear windows, molded emblems, realistic mirrors, working LED lights, and tube-style bumpers and rollbars. The clipless mounting system ensures a clean look and hassle-free access to the chassis.
Ready-to-Run (RTR) out of the box, the Venture18 includes a high-torque brushless motor, 30A ESC, water-resistant metal gear servo, and a 2.4GHz radio system with thumbstick control. A 7.4V 600mAh LiPo battery and USB balance charger are also included, so you’re trail-ready right away — just add 4 AA batteries for the transmitter.
