Having owned the Trophy 3.5 Buggy in 2012 I felt it was time to get my hands on another car from HPI. Introducing the HPI Trophy 4.6! A 1/8 Nitro Truggy with HPI's F4.6 (Force .28) sized engine. In this video we get the car out of the box, set it up, and start it for the very first time!

Hi, TheRcBiker i had once asked a question on one of you videos of asking what nitro engine would be able to fit in my rc car. The started engine it came with was a GS11r Kyosho engine. But after that I had put a OS max 12cv. i would love to hear back from tou

[@TheRCBiker]

Hi Victor! I'm not familiar with the car you have but any engine of the same size would fit in. You might be able to drop a .18 engine in too

[@victortakeda9338]

Thank you that all i needed to know i wasn’t sure what size engine would fit i there. Thank you so much

[@skidilydidily1]

Hi mate, good vid would you know how i can tell if my truggy is the V1 or V2 model please?

[@isaacsbuilds4203]

Nice, keeping the vids flowing, love your channel, keep it up!

[@TheRCBiker]

Lots to come!

[@guinnessdublin4669]

Another great review, nice to see you are reviewing HPI products & helping them get back to where they were, would love you to do review/bash on the Savage also!

[@TheRCBiker]

Thanks, Savage is next! :)

[@downunderdan5132]

I know those manual feels man. A good manual is everything. A manual is the difference between a pleasure and a parts nightmare. Especially with 2nd hand cars 😄😎👍 keep up the good work

[@TheRCBiker]

Very true!

[@delroyifill5445]

First of all thanks for coming back and doing all these new videos, been watching your videos for many years now and Learnt so much, The best well explained and step-by-step tuition on KZbin 💯 I have got this truggy for 5years now and still love this thing when I get time to use it, if it wasn’t for your channel I would have lost interest due to problems that come with nitro cars but but your channel has taught me a lot and now I’m able to teach my friends also thank you so much for the work you put in, and I don’t normally comment, respect and keep them coming, 👊🏾💯

[@TheRCBiker]

Thanks for the awesome comment Delroy :) Glad you're still enjoying the hobby, can try your patience at times but is worth it !

[@TheRCBiker]

By the way, KZbin is telling me you're not subscribed! Please subscribe, it helps the channel out ;)

[@maxrackstraw]

really enjoying you being back mate! Bought a rovan baja q that things pretty nice

[@TheRCBiker]

Awesome, have fun!

[@nitro_rc_dude8158]

Personally i prefer xray xb8 2017. I had a 3.5 but it was so bad and flimsy i put it in the bin and go a xray. The handling is so much better and more durable than the hpi.

[@indirectfever6357]

Can’t wait for the bashing video.

[@TheRCBiker]

Filmed it 3 weeks ago, will be up soon! You guys are 3 weeks behind me Lol

[@bartoszabratanski3425]

Nice truggy !

[@TheRCBiker]

Thanks for watching :)

[@kantoterror6165]

What is that thing you plug on top when you were starting?

[@krishannayar5429]

I have had quite a few nitros but the only one I have kept is my Schumacher menace 21. That car is insane plus my favourite!

[@TheRCBiker]

Awesome!! :)

[@eddyrejserbil4229]

those 4.6 cc sure will come in handy

[@TheRCBiker]

It's a great car to bash!

[@taiteelsey2129]

Love nitro will never go back to brushless now

[@taiteelsey2129]

You should get a hpi savage 2nd hand

[@TheRCBiker]

Me neither! :)

[@TheRCBiker]

@@taiteelsey2129 Never mind a second hand one - I was planning to buy a new one! :)

[@taiteelsey2129]

TheRCBiker yeh I got my savage 25 a few months back after falling out with Rc for a while and never Going back to brushless again and saving up for more nitros it’s about 10 years old and looks brand new it’s been bassicly rebuilt love it look on my channel for more :)

[@joshchatwin8179]

I had to upgrade to 17mm hex bro the nuts kept coming and now I’m looking for some strong cvd for front and dog bones for rear or cvd for both

[@TheRCBiker]

Aren't they 17mm standard? :)

[@joshchatwin8179]

TheRCBiker now bro the use like a wired flanged nut I use a 17mm hex nut

[@joshchatwin8179]

And the flux is awesome just brought some cnc hinge pin braces and put a 18tooth piñon on it

[@ryze7810]

is it true sometimtes the car wont move on the 2nd tank of fuel because the clutch pads arent worn in yet? is that a thing

[@TheRCBiker]

No I've never heard of that... clutch shoes become less effective as they wear down, they don't need to wear in as such, especially if they are aluminium ones

[@Win-ym7oj]

Morning RCBiker 👍

[@TheRCBiker]

Morning Ewin! :)

[@markpatrick9311]

[@alexarks517]

Have you had a hpi savage? Would love to see a review.

[@TheRCBiker]

No, I was thinking that could be my next car :)

[@willfrance7626]

Hey I have a HPI MT2 but the carbs seized I’ve tried soaking it in engine degreaser and nitro fuel but it hasn’t worked any ideas thanks in advance ps it’s a rotary not sliding

[@TheRCBiker]

Have you tried WD40? Degreaser and Nitro are good for cleaning but no so much to release seized parts

[@willfrance7626]

TheRCBiker I’ve tried WD40

[@TheRCBiker]

Try heating it up with a heatgun or hairdryer Avoid heating plastic parts

[@willfrance7626]

TheRCBiker ok I’ll try that Thanks

[@anthonyopc2892]

Hpi Truggy trophy super voiture solide 💪💪👌👌

[@LawrenceTimme]

Nitro gang!

[@TheRCBiker]

The best! :)

[@adamslife6406]

What fuel would you recommend I have just got back into my nitro cars and currently using 20% for a nitro buggy 1/10 scale is this the correct one? Tyia

[@TheRCBiker]

Yes that should be fine, as a general rule 20% for 1/10 and 25% for 1/8

[@adamslife6406]

TheRCBiker brilliant Thankyou one other thing I was just out with it earlier it seemed a little bit splutery and cut out a couple times do I need to a just the carb?

[@TheRCBiker]

Yes most likely, return the carb to factory default settings and work from there

[@adamslife6406]

TheRCBiker Thankyou for your help 😀

[@TheRCBiker]

welcome : )

[@chrisdone687]

Would it be possible to put a link to these products in your vids mate ??

[@TheRCBiker]
