A proven and legendary 1/5 scale chassis now fitted with a fantastic new look! HPI has teamed up with Kraken Rc to bring you one of the best looking 1/5 roll cages now fitted standard on the HPI Baja 5B! Designed by Kraken the Sidewinder X5 Buggy transforms the look of the Baja 5B into a "sand rail" style dune buggy which just begs you to take it to the sand dunes.

HPI didn't stop there, they have also strengthened up the drivetrain with super heavy duty 9mm drive shafts, super heavy duty drive cups, super heavy duty drive axles and upgraded front and rear hubs which are also fitted standard from the factory.

The Baja 5B has been around for years and is now one of the most cloned cars but this is the HPI original and best!

The HPI Baja has been the most popular 1/5 scale car, which means all the big aftermarket companies like Integy, Turtle Racing, RPM Racing, Hostile Racing, Killer RC, and lots more have made some really great aftermarket parts which allows you to customise the HPI Baja Kraken Sidewinder X5 as much as you want!

Easy to maintain - All of the electronics are inside the front radio box, so when you have been out for a run and it's filthy dirty you can take the radio box out (and block out the intake and exhaust) within minutes and give it a wash with the pressure washer, it'll be clean and dry again within 10-15mins ready for another run, easy as that!
