HSP have installed an adjustable slipper clutch to protect the drive-train from the impacts of jumps, wheelies and everyday bashing!

Quick charge times! With a 2.3 hour charge time you can spend less time waiting for them to charge and more time bashing! You always want to use a quality charger like the B3 to ensure a long lifetime for your battery and provide peace of mind while charging.

Stoked, for the money it’s better than expected. Performs well for this level.
I took it to the old Eagles BMX track in Belmont and proceeded to bash it that arvo. Landed badly, barrel rolled it, landed sideways on edge many many times.
Alas, back wheel finally exploded and departed, no wonder. Everything has weak points, this is the one I found.
The wheels are of solid disc design, made from harder thin plastic. Already put a spare tougher back wheel on.
I definitely recommend this buggy. For the money it goes well. Power wheelied heaps of times when it hooked up.
Just don’t do heaps of 6ft jumps flat landing it on rough ground like I do, and you’ll be right ????????
Oh and the staff here are always brilliant
The amazing thing that it survived last night was being driven into a dam and sitting fully submerged for 20 seconds, pulled it out and it was still running, ran out the rest of the battery and then dried it off, and it’s still going strong today. Not recommended, but I honestly assumed it was going to be junk after that.
Upgrades I’ve made more recently are better wheels and tyres (the fronts especially are hard and not very grippy) and a cheap Savox servo, both made significant performance and enjoyment improvements. I highly recommend the HSP Mongoose brushless.
Thanks
Definitely recommend this buggy.
