BlackoutXb

Hi guys.. I'm just about to set off on a 8 hour drive to go and pick up a hpi baja 5b ss.. In the photos it looks very clean and tidy and the chap seams pretty honest.. As this is my first baja and never seen one in the flesh before I was wondering if any one had any pointers in what to look for.. Any help would be great guys as I'm going blind on this one. Cheers

Thanks for your help guys... The engine in mine looks to be exactly the same as a baja 5b just a smaller carb on mine. I took a gamble and won a ddm air filter on ebay that fits a 5b. Looks to be the same two bolt hole design so figera crossed it fits mine. If any one can shed any light I'd be most grateful.. Thanks guys

Hi guys My names rob and im new to this forum, i own a revo 3.3, savage 5.9 xl, savage flux hp, and short lived but i did own a savage octane lol.... I've recently managed to purchase a new blackout xb for next to nothing from a dealer selling old stock, Its the new 32 cc 4 bolt engine model number ME-432..... Im struggling to find any hop up engine parts directly for the maverick black out and ive also tried redcats version with not much luck.. I keep reading various things about a baja 5b 32 cc engine, Can you guys tell me if this is the same engine ? Will parts from this engine fit mine ? Or is mine just a cheap copy of the baja engine... Sorry for all the questions, had many nitros and electric cars but this is my first petrol 5th scale. I had a octane but it never ran out the box lol, least this one started lol... Any help would be great guys rob
