Expanding the Blackzon line-up with the Smyter!

[@Mark-qv4bn]

I bought one last week, the desert buggy. Im going to buy the desert truck tomorrow. My buggy literally throws dirt and gravel off all the wheels. These are built very well, very fast and steer quick. 100% happy with mine, an unbelievable value I think.

[@AussieRCPlayground]

This looks awesome!! Great addition to the Blackzon family and a good step up from the Slyder. Great work! 😎👍

[@bellstangrc7799]

Awesome! Great entry RC! Glad you guys are slowly coming back properly:) and even re-release the 5B?!?! Simply amazing!! HPI fan here since the beginning, pull out the MT2 18ss from time to time:)

Let's go Happy People Inc. 👍👍

[@kaosr.c]

[@carfraind1198]

This looks fire keep up the good work❤👌👌👌

[@sakisSAVAGER]

Start em young!!! Great

[@kaosr.c]

Just ordered mine today 😁 cant wait

[@michael95196]

Bought one of these for my first RC Truck and quite happy with it except that after a couple of rollovers the wires to the 4 lights on the boddy both came apart, looks like it was a failure of the solder holding it on. Other than that a bit of fun, my dog thinks so as well.

[@jacksonsmodels4875]

We can't wait to get the slyders in stock later this week 😀

[@atkracing]

I thought you where bringing back the Apache

[@chojny8089]

Thank you for showing 1/12 and 1/16 on the same video! I'm looking for a first RC car model for my 5 year old son (+ of course me :P) - do you think 1/12 Slyder or 1/16 Smyter will be better to start? He only used some toy RC cars so far that were annoying to steer.

[@OfficialHPI]

I think either would be perfect. They both operate in the same way, just with different scales and different budgets. The throttle can be turned down from the transmitter to get used to either RC initially.

[@chojny8089]

@@OfficialHPI Thank you for reply. I had also younger son (3y) so I finally bought both Slyder and Smyter MTs in the same green color, will be funny to see them playing together 😁 We have a fenced field nearby to practice. Can't wait 😁

[@mikeupton5406]

Pickup my Audi E-Tron today👍

[@vampcaff]

What would be more fun you ask? A 1:6 scale basher.

[@OfficialHPI]

ah but I couldn't use that in the office. And why go 1:6th when you can go 1:5th...

[@damelbournetrainspotter8481]

How fast does it go?

[@Mark-qv4bn]

Fast enough. My shop has one desert truck left. I looked at it yesterday, I already have the desert buggy.

[@Luke-en2tk]

They look good, video looks a little amateur though and it's a shame you aren't dealing with us small shops here in the UK

[@OfficialHPI]

As far as im aware any store with an EORI number and is VAT registered can apply for an account. Without these you can't import into the UK.

[@Luke-en2tk]

@@OfficialHPI well that's rubbish, been getting stuff from Absima in Germany since brexit. If a company doesn't wanted my thousands of pounds then that's just bad business

[@fettfan1475]

@@Luke-en2tk all you need to do to get an EORI no is contact the trader support service (TSS) and they can register you for an EORI number, you will need to work put how you're going to handle your duties as importing post brexit isn't as simple as it was when we were part of Europe unfortunately

[@Luke-en2tk]

@@fettfan1475 yeah cheers I already have one it's still in the progress of been sorted out with HPI hopefully getting close now. It seems it's Denmark that have strange VAT rules I deal with lots of other European suppliers

[@jean-firossignol9024]

Hi... What's the jump you use on the video???

[@OfficialHPI]

They are Rampage Skate Ramps.

[@davyarthurs]

Error in the video : it should say ‘its big brother’ not ‘it’s/it is big brother’. That aside, nice truck! Not the first time I’ve seen this mistake on HPI press releases.

[@OfficialHPI]

My bad.....

[@teamawesome2171]

Looks toy grade....

[@OfficialHPI]

Smyters retail at £99.99 / $114.99. The Blackzon cars are all aimed to be great value cars.

[@ricardopires4713]

These cars are very nice for the price! I would like you to tell me super hyper mega hobby grade stuff at £100!
