HPI Sprint 2 Flux - RTR and Waterproof

The RTR Sprint 2 Flux is now better than ever! We’ve taken the proven Sprint 2 platform and added a 2.4GHz radio system, brushless motor and electronic speed control, pre-painted bodies, waterproof electronics, LIPO-capable electronic speed control, 8.4V battery pack with AC wall charger, AA batteries for the transmitter, and orange anodized chassis parts. And it’s all pre-built to precise factory specs to get you driving quickly.

2.4GHz RADIO SYSTEM
Controlling the RTR Sprint 2 Flux is easy with the HPI TF-40 2.4GHz radio system. No need to worry about changing crystals, the radio prevents frequency conflicts automatically. The TF-40 pistol grip transmitter features adjustments for steering trim, throttle trim, steering dual rate, end points, servo reversing switches, low battery indicator, and a 3rd channel for optional accessories. The 3 channel receiver is equipped with a failsafe system for maximum safety.

WATERPROOF
The RTR Sprint 2 Flux now has a waterproof receiver box to keep the 2.4GHz receiver protected from the elements for glitch-free operation. A new SF-10W waterproof steering servo and a waterproof Flux Vapor speed control mean your RTR Sprint 2 Flux won’t be stopped by wet conditions.

BRUSHLESS ELECTRIC POWER
The RTR Sprint 2 Flux takes full advantage of all of the benefits of electric power; it’s quiet, clean, powerful, and truly plug-and-play… no starter or fuel needed! Power comes from a Flux VEKTOR brushless 5900Kv motor that delivers massive power for incredible acceleration and a top speed of more that 53 MPH! The brushless design assures maximum performance with nearly no maintenance required.

The Flux VAPOR electronic speed control gives you complete control over throttle, brakes, and reverse. 6 and 7 cell NiMh battery packs fit easily in the RTR Sprint 2 Flux, as well as 2S Li-Po packs. The Flux VAPOR ESC is reversible so you can back out of jams with ease. And for maximum adjustability it’s fully programmable with our optional #100573 USB Programming Kit.

BETTER EQUIPPED
To help get your new RTR Sprint 2 Flux running as quickly as possible, a rechargeable 8.4V Plazma 3300mAh battery pack and AC wall charger are now included, along with Plazma AA’s for your transmitter. Just charge the battery and you’re ready to start driving!

LOOKS GREAT
The RTR Sprint 2 Flux features a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro finished in bright yellow paint with black stripes and chrome wheels. It includes a set of officially licensed Rays/Volk TE37 wheels with pre-mounted X-Pattern tires. The body comes completely trimmed, decaled and mounted for the ultimate in ease. And you can always customize your car with any of the clear or pre-painted polycarbonate body shells from the huge assortment of HPI bodies and other manufacturers as well!

PERFORMANCE DRIVEN DESIGN
The RTR Sprint 2 Flux chassis is 4WD for consistent performance on a wide variety of surfaces, easy to drive, and has all of the features you need to adjust for a perfect set-up: camber, toe-in, ride height, Ackerman, and a wide variety of available shock oils and shock springs! With a big foam front bumper, reinforced molded nylon chassis, upper deck and shock towers, you’ll see that the RTR Sprint 2 Flux can easily take the abuse of parking lot driving. The full ball bearing, dual belt, 4 wheel drive transmission is very efficient and capable of handling high power modified electric motors down to 10 turns.

FULL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
As with all HPI cars and trucks, you get a full, in-depth instruction manual with step-by-step instructions that allow you to easily disassemble and reassemble your car for maintenance and easy servicing. The manual also includes a handy parts list and full-scale drawings of the parts and hardware. And the included HPI RC Car DVD is your personal RC car expert in a box!

THE COMPLETE PACKAGE
From authentic looks to full adjustability of the suspension geometry, the RTR Sprint 2 Flux is the complete package. 2.4GHz radio, brushless Flux VEKTOR motor, Flux VAPOR brushless ESC, full ball bearings, waterproof electronics, and silicone oil-filled shocks – it’s all there on the RTR Sprint 2 Flux, precision built from the factory. Top it off with your choice of a 2010 Chevrolet® Camaro or Mustang GT-R body and your RTR Sprint 2 Flux is ready to drive!
