HPI VectR4 Ford Escort RS Cosworth RC Rally Car Electric 1/16 Scale RTR - Imperial Blue

Choose between the 1996 Sanremo Rally livery or Imperial Blue. This 1/16-scale, ready-to-run rally car features a highly detailed, two-piece polycarbonate body that captures the original vehicle's distinctive shape and arrives fully assembled and ready for the dirt.

Preserve the classic Escort lines with a clever clipless mounting design. The bodyshell slides into hidden front brackets and secures with a discreet locking clip in the rear diffuser. This practical solution allows for quick battery access without fiddling with external body pins.

Navigate unpredictable surfaces with a full-time 4WD system. Power transfers through a shaft-driven transmission featuring three sealed four-gear differentials located at the front, centre, and rear. This setup allows wheels to rotate at different speeds, delivering smooth handling across changing terrain.

The tough composite tub chassis utilises a centrally balanced layout for predictable handling. Its fully enclosed drivetrain protects moving parts from dirt and loose debris. Equipped with full ball bearings and hex hardware, this platform delivers the durability required for serious rally driving.

Pre-installed light buckets feature working headlights and taillights to bring your small-scale machine to life. The integrated LED system adds realism for low-light driving, with selectable lighting modes controlled directly from the MTX-400 transmitter without needing to remove the body shell.

The Firebolt 380 45T brushed motor delivers smooth, controllable power perfectly suited to the compact 1/16 scale chassis. This power system provides an ideal balance of speed and ease of use, offering highly approachable performance for beginners while remaining engaging for experienced drivers.

Authentic rally-style wheels complement the classic Escort appearance. They are paired with 45mm (1.77") diameter tyres designed specifically for versatile grip across various driving surfaces, providing the distinctive proportions and reliable traction needed for miniature rally stages.

The waterproof HPI SRL-400 unit neatly combines the electronic speed controller, 2.4GHz receiver, and LED controller into one compact package. This practical, space-saving design significantly reduces wiring clutter inside the chassis, ensuring reliable all-weather performance when your rally stage gets messy.

Take total control with the lightweight MTX-400 transmitter. It features digital 2.4GHz technology for interference-free driving, along with steering and throttle endpoint adjustments, dual rate, and a comfortable foam steering wheel. Built-in audible warnings alert you to low battery life or idle time.
