RS4 Sport 3 Flux Audi E-Tron Vision GT 1/10 Scale 4WD Brushless Car - RTR from HPI Racing - HPI160202

Version Info: This car is delivered as "RTR", however it does require a 2S (7.4V) or 3S (11.1V) LiPo battery and a battery charger, purchased separately (see Requires below for details).

Motion RC is proud to offer HPI Racing’s most ambitious, detailed and realistic official scale replica partnership yet! When Audi designers pushed themselves to turn a best selling video game car into a reality, HPI's designers followed suit with the dream that this amazing electric race machine could also hit the the real-world track in 1:10th form!

Since the dawn of Formula E, electric powered racing has been growing across the motorsport world. What better way to take RC to a generation of sim racers than with the very real, incredibly fast, utterly sublime Sport 3 Flux Audi e-tron Vision GT!

The Sport 3 Flux features full-time shaft driven 4WD, a fully sealed drivetrain, waterproof 2.4 GHz electronics/radio gear, fully independent double wishbone suspension and adjustable oil-filled shocks so it’s Ready to Rock in any condition. Propelling the Sport 3 to speeds over 113km/h (70mph) is the Flux MMH-4000KV motor, controlled by the waterproof Flux EMH-3S LiPo-ready speed controller. An enclosed box houses the 2.4GHz radio receiver, ensuring that you have constant control through the HPI pistol-grip steering wheel transmitter.

Officially Licensed Audi Sport Replica Wheels Not only is the e-tron one of HPI's most ambitious and detailed bodies, their designers have captured every last detail, right down to the Quattro emblazoned racing wheels. Wrapped around these beauties is a set of treaded rubber tires for maximum grip on just about every paved surface. You'll get great acceleration, braking and cornering performance from these semi-slick, grippy rubber tires!

One-Piece Molded Chassis The Sport 3 main chassis is formed from a single piece of reinforced plastic and features the drivetrain tunnel molded right down the middle, just like a real car. It's a step beyond any plastic tub chassis car available today.

Low Profile Layout Design One of the ways we gave the Sport 3 the best possible handling was to make sure all the components fit as low as possible in the chassis. This gives the car an amazingly low center of gravity for enhanced cornering capabilities.

HPI Flux Technology The Sport 3 Flux is fitted with the awesome Flux MMH-4000 motor, one of HPI's most powerful motors for 1/10th scale cars. Thanks to the robust Flux EMH-3S speed controller, you can strap in your choice of 2S or 3S LiPo power (or a 7.2v-8.4v NiMH battery with a Dean's plug) to give the car an unbelievable power out of the turns and speeds of up to 70mph (requires the High Speed Gear Set - sold separately, and a 3S LiPo battery pack) on the straight, when using optional gearing!

Tough Front End Suspension The Sport front end uses the strong C-hub style suspension seen on the latest RC touring cars, with a vertical ball stud camber mount that lets you change the front end roll center – which is a critical racing adjustment that allows the Sport 3 to be a step above other sport-level RC touring cars. The suspension arm also features multiple shock mounting holes for easy shock angle adjustment.

Metal-Shielded Ball Bearings The Sport 3 is fully fitted with a set of metal-shielded ball bearings for maximum efficiency. The metal shields keep the dust away from the internals while the smooth precision bearings provides for optimum power delivery from the power source out into the driveline.
