Description
Hobao Hyper VS2 Electric Truggy ARTR, part number HB-VSTE, is an almost-ready-to-run 1/8-scale electric truggy kit for off-road driving. It is built around a lightweight, CNC-machined 7075 aluminium chassis with front and rear stainless-steel skid plates to help protect the chassis during landings and rough running.
The 4WD drivetrain uses hardened-steel driveshafts and front, centre and rear oil-filled geared differentials with metal bevel gears. Reinforced composite suspension arms, adjustable geometry and front and rear anti-roll bars allow the suspension setup to be tailored for different driving conditions. Large-bore 17mm aluminium shocks use adjustable rings, 4mm alloy-steel shafts and CNC-machined aluminium shock towers.
A configurable battery layout supports either a single or dual-battery arrangement. The battery tray can be positioned at the front, centre or rear, allowing changes to weight distribution and centre of gravity. It is specified for standard shorty and standard-length batteries. The CNC aluminium cam-lock motor mount is intended for motors below 50mm in diameter, with the supplied motor support arrangement subject to the stated diameter limitations.
Features
The Hyper VS2 includes an adjustable steering crank, aluminium steering rack, ball-bearing servo saver and adjustable caster, camber, toe, roll centre and anti-squat settings. Its 17mm front and rear wheel hex hubs accept the supplied 3.9-inch dish wheels and 3.7-inch mini rectangle pin tyres. A full set of ball bearings is included, while optional upgrades are available for drivers who want to alter the chassis, drivetrain or suspension components.

Specifications
HoBao’s latest entry into the off-road truggy market, the Hyper VSTE is designed for serious off-road performance, whether at the track or for extreme bashing.
This fully featured truggy combines a lightweight CNC-machined 7075 aluminium chassis with front and rear stainless-steel skid plates for additional protection from those big landings, together with a durable heavy-duty metal drivetrain and fully adjustable suspension.
With hardened-steel driveshafts, front, centre and rear oil-filled geared differentials, 17mm large-bore aluminium shocks and reinforced suspension arms, the Hyper VSTE is built to handle demanding driving conditions.
The Hyper VSTE features a flexible battery layout, allowing the chassis to be configured for either a single or dual-battery setup. The single battery tray can be positioned at the front, centre or rear, giving drivers the ability to fine-tune the vehicle’s weight distribution and centre of gravity.
CNC-machined aluminium components, adjustable steering and suspension geometry, front and rear anti-roll bars and 17mm wheel hex hubs provide a strong and highly tuneable platform.
HoBao also offers a wide range of optional upgrades for drivers looking to take the VSTE’s performance even further. These include carbon-fibre components, aluminium suspension arm holders with inserts, titanium turnbuckles, aluminium differential and gearbox components, and alternative springs and pistons.
When it comes to premium performance with a heavy-duty stance, the HoBao Hyper VSTE is ready and waiting.
