HPI Racing 1/32nd Scale racers & HB D8 Flux

The Shizuoka show is on this weekend in Japan, and as usual the Japanese companies are out in force showing their new products at their home show. HPI Racing have released a number of new items, the most interesting of which being the new Racing 32 H-01 and H-02 chassis’, which as the name suggests is a new 1/32nd scale racer. The H-02 chassis shown above, is a full race spec version with carbon throughout and is essentially a tiny Cyclone 12X pan car, complete with foam tires. The H-01 is the RTR version of the same car and features lightweight plastics throughout and will come with a beautiful scale body and is supplied with a 2.4Ghz radio system, as well as a charger / workbench. Also new on the same stand from Hot Bodies is the Flux powered version of the World Championship winning D8 buggy. This brushless car is still only a prototype, but from the pictures you can see that it retains the mechanical brake system, has a composite plastic chassis and a forward mounted motor.

We have covered the HPI Formula Ten already but at the Show, HPI showed off the car with replica paint schemes and they look sweet.

Kinda weird to call it a D8 Flux when it has Novak equipment in it, no? Some one at the show could’ve stripped a Flux ESC and motor from a Savage at a LHS and put it in the car, or something. And they show it with 2s lipo? Barry Baker has done it, but it supposedly works only on tiny tracks.

I imagine it is still in prototype stage, and if they use Novak thats ok too. Flux I imagine jsut refers to their Brushless vehicles in general, not necessary which brand motor/ESC. I hope they offer it as a roller / kit so you can install your own setup.

Wow, that 1/32 racer pro spec is fantastic. Should do very well ! Might just have to get a couple.
