The Rovan Baja V2 8S is a massive 1/5 scale electric buggy that takes the classic Baja design and swaps out the petrol engine for low-maintenance, explosive brushless power. This Ready-to-Run (RTR) beast is built on a high-strength aluminium chassis with a sleek blacked out finish, making it look as aggressive as it performs. Equipped with a powerful Hobbywing sensored motor system, you get smooth, precise control at low speeds while still having enough torque to reach incredible top speeds on any terrain.
Handling this large vehicle is easier than ever thanks to the widened track width and a symmetrical steering system powered by a tough 60kg metal-geared servo. The suspension uses adjustable aluminium big bore shocks tuned for rough terrain, and the drivetrain is reinforced with a steel hex-keyed pinion gear to easily handle the massive 8S power.
Whether you are a beginner looking for an easy and affordable entry into 1/5 scale or a pro wanting a powerful electric platform, the Baja V2 8S is built to deliver on whatever you throw at it.
The Rovan Baja 8S is equipped with one of the best motor and ESC combos on the market. The hugely powerful Sensored Hobbywing Max5 ESC and 800kV Brushless Motor. This combo delivers instant electric power with unmatched reliability. Take your Baja experience to an electrifying new level!
The Baja 8S has been equipped with a wide range of super tough, sleek black aluminium parts. The main chassis, servo horns, shock towers, hex extenders and more are all designed to handle whatever you throw at it on and off road. Bash with confidence with the Rovan Baja 8S!
The Rovan Baja V2 8S comes with a powerful metal-geared servo that is rated at a massive 60kg. This durable servo has been paired with the popular symmetrical steering upgrade for unmatched large-scale handling and reliability straight out of the box.
The Rovan Baja V2 series now come equipped with the popular symmetrical steering upgrade installed as standard. This upgrade greatly improves the turning circle of the Baja and increases steering performance dramatically given you a more rounded experience.
The Baja 8S is equipped with beefy QS8 high current connectors that are specifically designed to handle the massive electrical flow from an 8S power supply. These heavy-duty plugs provide a secure and reliable connection between your batteries and ESC, ensuring consistent power during high-performance runs.
Not only do the rims now look more sleek and modern, they have been wrapped with the impressive Gen2 Dirt Buster Tyres. These high grip tyres provide better traction on all surfaces and work with the rest of the upgrades to provide a more stable and consistent experience.
The Baja's revamped suspension delivers a smoother, more controlled ride. Newly designed shocks, featuring a striking bronze finish, provide improved damping and responsiveness, while adjustable settings allow you to fine-tune the handling to your liking.
The V2 Baja is equipped with a 25mm wider drivetrain that dramatically improves handling and stability on rough terrain. This extra width provides a more planted feel, helping you focus on nailing every corner with confidence while the redesigned screw pin hex eliminates the risk of losing C-Clips during high-speed runs or maintenance.
The Baja V2 8S Sports an aggressive, almost F1 style body shell and new sleek black aluminium chassis. This incredible looking baja is ready to catch the eye of rivals and admirers alike and is sure to impress thanks to its carefully crafted design, as well as providing the required toughness you expect from a 1/5 basher.
The Baja 8S is electric in more ways than one. From the factory, it is equipped with roof-mounted LEDs to light up the track before it. Bash late into the night, without fear, as the Baja 8S was built to stand out.
The Baja V2 has been redesigned with protection for the electric power system front and centre. Rovan has equipped the Baja 8S with protective polycarbonate windows, ensuring the electronics are protected from unwanted dirt and debris.
Whether you prefer Lightning Blue or vibrant Green, the Baja comes in two colours that are designed to make an impact. These bright finishes look professional and ensure that your buggy is easy to follow when you are pushing it to the limit. It is a great way to add personal style while gaining the practical benefit of seeing your car clearly even during long-distance bashing sessions.
