HPI and Hot Bodies releases for June

New from HPI and Hot Bodies:

Honda Civic Type R (EK9) body

Cup Racer owners… the popular Honda Civic Type R body is back! Completely revised decals and revised tooling make it a perfect fit on Cup Racer cars as well as many other “Mini” size cars with 225mm wheelbases. We’ve added front/rear light buckets for the ultimate in realism. The huge vinyl pre-cut decal sheet comes all of the good stuff: window lines, tinted rear/side windows just like the real Civic Type R (EK9), two different radiator/intercoolers, official Honda logos and even some retro HPI logos thrown in.

Like all HPI bodies, the Honda Civic comes with a clear protective overspray film, window masks and a large pre-cut decal sheet. The body also has drill locations marked for HPI Cup Racer cars, making it easy to line up the body mount and antenna holes.

  • Premium vinyl decals include window frames, headlights, grill, tail lights, official logos and more – For a perfect finish with a lot of details
  • Front and rear light buckets – allows you to add real lights for the ultimate realism
  • High quality polycarbonate with excellent dimensional stability and impact resistance – For extra strength and longer life
  • Pre-marked body post holes – For easy mounting on HPI cars
  • Fits the HPI Cup Racer and other “Mini” size cars

A race-legal sealed plastic case protects the batteries from crash damage. Every pack comes with a balancing plug to keep the cells matched, and giant silicone wires with Deans® plugs for maximum power and minimum plug loss.

Voltage: 7.4V
Capacity: 4000mAh

#101943 HPI Plazma 11.1V 3800mAh 30C Lipo Rectangular Case Stick Pack Re-Chargeable Battery

Use the rounded stick pack style for universal fit in most electric-powered kits and battery-powered accessories like the HPI Roto Start. The square-cornered style is great for racing kits like the Cyclone and the Vorza, which fits battery packs side-by-side.

Note: to use the round LiPo case batteries in the Roto Start you will need to change the Roto Start plug to a male Deans® Ultra Plug.

Note: LiPo batteries must be charged with a LiPo-compatible charger.

This battery will fit most HPI and Hot Bodies electric kits, however there are special considerations to note:

Sprint 2 – the front drive belt will rub on the battery case, so one of the round case LiPo batteries is a better choice.

Vorza – two batteries fit best laid side by side.

HB Ve8 – two batteries fit best laid on top of each other.
