Product Description

New from HPI Racing is the ready-to-run E-Firestorm 2WD 1/10th-scale electric-powered stadium truck. In the fiercely competitive electric 2WD truck class, the E-Firestorm separates itself from the competition with extra toughness and a long list of race-inspired features... all at a price that beats the competition. Erik Shauver, designer of high-performance HPI vehicles like the nitro Firestorm, Hellfire and the Pro 4, was the go-to choice when it came time to add an electric 2WD truck to the HPI line-up. Using his Firestorm design as a starting point, Erik set out to design a truck that blended the toughness needed for an entry level truck with the adjustability of a competitive race truck. Built Tough TOUGH is the word that best describes the E-Firestorm. Everywhere you look, the critical parts have been designed to withstand the rigors of off-road racing. The key to durability for any 2WD stadium truck is the transmission, and the E- Firestorm tranny is extra tough, using all metal gears to easily handle the power of hot electric motors. Inside the tranny is a sealed planetary differential with, again, all metal gears for extra toughness. And everything is protected by an adjustable dual-pad slipper clutch mated to durable 48 pitch gears, with tough steel dogbones and axles to transmit the power to the tires. Performance-Driven Design The E-Firestorm uses race-inspired design to give owners full control over suspension adjustments for excellent handling on surfaces like open fields, parks, and even to your local racing track. The lay-down steering servo and low-profile transmission help provide a very low center of gravity (CG) for quick response. A full set of turnbuckles allows you to adjust camber and front toe. Requires a 6- or 7-cell sub C battery pack, charger and AA batteries.

This review is from: HPI E-Firestorm 10T RTR w/DSX 2 Truck Body (Toy)

Very fun car, stable, good value at all, BUT, there`s a huge problem, this thing is a natural born battery drainer, i've got it with a 3000mah stick pack and it lasts for 9 to 12 minutes, certainly that battery is a low profile one, but i have an e-revo that is faster, whit same stick pack and it lasts for up to 20 minutes. e-firestorm is not fast enough to consume energy like that. Great for kids, with two or three extra batteries.
