Experience Unrivaled Power with the Rovan 1/5 45cc Baja 5B Sport 2WD Petrol RC Baja Buggy!
The Rovan 1/5 45cc Baja 5B Sport is the ultimate expression of power and performance in the world of 1/5 scale RC buggies. Built on the legendary Baja 5B chassis, this beast is compatible with 99% of original HPI Baja 5B parts, ensuring a vast array of customisation options. But what truly sets the Rovan Baja 5B Sport apart is its monstrous 45cc 4-bolt petrol engine, paired with a Dominator-style tuned exhaust pipe. This powerplant delivers an adrenaline-pumping experience that will redefine your expectations of RC speed and acceleration.
Rovan didn't just focus on power, though. They've reinforced the drivetrain with 33% larger driveshafts and an aluminium clutch mount, while the steel roll cage provides added durability for extreme off-road adventures. The addition of sway bars enhances handling, and MX rear tyres provide exceptional traction on loose surfaces. The NGK spark plug and Walbro carburetor ensure smooth and reliable engine operation, and the 45kg steering servo guarantees precise control over this powerful machine.

Key Features
Pre-installed is a steel tuned exhaust pipe that increases the performance by 17%! This pipe has a crisp note that adds attitude to your Baja 5B.
Just like a high-performance dirt bike, this beast grips its terrain with these extreme motor cross tyres!
Rovan has drastically improved the steering power of the Baja 5B with a whole new servo that has metal gears and outputs 45kg of torque!
Drive with the precision of the FlySky GT3B transmitter! Featuring an LCD display, 3 channel, 10 model memory, servo end points. Also, the included receiver has a built in fail-safe so if something does happen to the signal (like a flat battery) the car will just roll to a stop.
The Rovan HPI Baja 5B is 99% which means when you're purchasing a replacement part you'll have the option of purchasing a Rovan or a genuine HPI. On top of that, most of the aftermarket parts such as RPM RC will fit also.

4 things I recommend.
1. Loktite Everything. (Must do)
2. 7000rpm clutch. (More control and quieter.)
3. Silencer. The neighbors will call the police without it lol)
4. Symmetrical steering. (Makes it turn normally. Has the turning circle of a truck without it.)
Dont attempt the work yourself without confidence.
