That is a monster!!! I think a kill switch is not a luxury but a nessessity, lol!

Sickening BAJA!!! 45CC monstrosity!! Upgrades!! Flysky GT3, this is a killer BAJA! Can’t believe the power and torque!!

Gotta love the Baja 💪👍👊

[@4doersrc758]

Awesome Baja.. I will say ad a new Baja owner they are so much bigger in person.. I need to get mine running..

[@Niobium23]

Awesome vid! Great looking Baja!

[@hybrid32494]

thank you my dude!!

[@BloveMoneybagspmr]

Sounds amazing 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Thsnks man! Nitro and gas 4 life bro!!

[@xaviersrcadventures2955]

Great video editing and details!

[@hybrid32494]

Glad you liked it!

[@PhilBender612]

Dang, 45cc's of fun Baby! Ya great bargain to be had here. Car looks sweet Hybrid. The radio on the other hand, while it is a decent radio, 10 model memory isn't much. Not when spektrum offers 250, but what ever. The looks of those are so dated now too. They actually remind me of a 1990's car stereo head unit. lol Great RTR gasser. I like it.

[@stevej6824]

I’ve got the Rovan 5TS with the 45cc engine. It’s a fricking beast, 2 years and still running strong 💪 I broke it in with a 50:1 ratio and have had no issue.

[@redsmagic4907]

50:1 is thin, depending on the purity of the oil. I'm at 20:1.

[@Soren_Caique_xD]

@@redsmagic4907 I run 32/1 whitout any issue. Maby for the brake in i would go 25/1.

[@redsmagic4907]

@@Soren_Caique_xD In my country, the circumstances and standards for gasoline and oil are different, so 20:1 seems to work better.

[@StoneFPV-]

Great video hybrid! I look forward to hearing any ideas you come across to help improve the steering because my Baja is the same way.

[@hybrid32494]

hey dude! So far I've driven basic Bajas with regular steering and 2 Bajas with the "symmetrical" steering installed. My overall imprression is that symmetrical steering offers a much better turning radius but tends to spin out ALOT in turns, while the basic steering setup has a terrible turning radius but tends to hold a drift well at speeds.

[@StoneFPV-]

@@hybrid32494 very interesting! The only one I’ve driven is my Baja-Q so I assumed it was the shorter wheelbase causing the spin outs… What is the difference between regular and symmetrical steering?

[@maxpaul11]

Sweet! I think some tuning in the suspension and maybe different tires might drive better on the pavement? Awesome video! Now I want one! This is the way to go with this chassis! thanks for sharing 👍

[@TauJensen-by4qy]

Det er mimi

[@messn03]

Looks cold!😮

[@andyb9994]

Great video on Saturday morning, that's a bad ass buggy, I am getting one, what exactly is the symmetrical steering....keep ripping!!!!

[@bubblesrcshed]

This thing is super sick, looks like a great platform

[@RockysRC]

That is a great platform for people to get into 5th scale everything you need straight out of the box my first was a rovan and you really cant go wrong with it ,keep up the good work Hybrid32494.💪💪💪

[@arielalejandro6900]

great video bro, one day i'll get one of these baja

[@mikeh.748]

45cc’s of sickening Baja furry. You guys were out disking the fields for a minute there. Looks sweet.

[@kingkongrc247]

Great video I have the first edition the all-black one a good tune and a few more tanks that thing is going to be super awesome😁👍👌👊💤💤💥

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude! Thanks for checking out this video. You're right, it's been a couple more tanks since this video and the motor has gotten faster and a proper tune still has not been done for the High Speed Needle!. Going to work on it soon.

[@truerc]

Sickening👍

[@speedgears1236]

That is a badass rc. 45 cc big block sickening

[@hybrid32494]

Thanks bro!!

[@Mr.Ferrets]

woooooooooooo awsome video!!!!! thank you so much!!! wooooo!

[@hybrid32494]

Hey my dude thanks so much for checking out this video there will be more on this Baja, the next thing will be to install a kill switch and then we could do a real proper speed test. See you on the next one

[@rcnitroflux2361]

Great bud i got rovan 45 cc in my 30 dn truck bud

[@Angry-Lynx]

Wow what a fookin terrible mistake 😂

[@RCDUSSE]

One of these may be my next buy

[@madrc9781]

damn it did run nicely and that looks realy cool rc

[@hybrid32494]

Thsnk you mydude! The motor fired up so easily, this Baja is getting a kill switch installed soon and then we will do some more testing on it.

[@fcbaker65]

Nice ,I bought the XLT 45 SC truck not too long ago from Fearless ,enjoy Bruh!..👍

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! The XLT 45 is super dope!!! I'm highly considering one for myself at some point.

[@allenpatterson3504]

I love it I think I will get one

[@dickjohnson3564]

Great video mate!! Yep... Ya gotta love the low end power these 45cc's produce!! But keep in mind... these 45cc's are renowned for running significantly hotter than the smaller engines!? HAVE FUN!!

[@4D_Recovery]

Apparently it has to do with the dual ring pistons create more heat and a single is better for RC engines also exhaust port and unrestricted pipe help for heat dissipation as well as the engine cover directs air over the fins. That's purely my opinion based on engine builders and you tubers but the Brovan 45cc is a nice redesign

[@dickjohnson3564]

@@4D_Recovery Yep... Your dual ring theory has crossed my mind... I'll keep this in mind for the next engine rebuild I think!

[@4D_Recovery]

Hi Mr Johnson good luck with your next build can't wait to see it. I'm going to get the DTT 7 V2 from 30 d north with the 38cc The 38cc is basically a clone of the Zenoha g320 the ports are the same minus the outlet is bigger on the Z g320 so its very similar to the 32cc just has 5HP Jeff from Eastside RC ran one in his buggy with a Taylor side pipe and it really performed well from pull off to top end and it managed to shred the main gear he is actually getting TMR racing to do some performance mods on it so can't wait to see the test voyage of it. Thanks for the video keep em coming !!!

[@4D_Recovery]

@@dickjohnson3564 Have you seen the Bartelone Racing conversion ? The "Brovan" 45cc Reed case with porting mods etc nice pipe makes for a great drag engine and with the reed case and porting makes for a good race engine that should be quick off the line and still have great mid to top end HP and decent RPM obviously it all varies depending on platform gearing fuel mix and pipe.

[@4D_Recovery]

Not bad price, if I ever go big I'd definitely consider it

[@christianwornall1047]

Enjoy the power mate unfortunately I've had sell my Baja due to the turbo on my citroën diesel blew up so now I just got the one rc car which is my Traxxas rustler vxl sometimes in life you have to make sacrifices .

[@michaelinzitari]

Diesel bad. Turbo bad. European cars bad. You got the hat-trick right there. Good luck with the repairs, hope you get a Honda civic soon

[@Serialcrasher]

Cool 👍⛽️

[@kercumhoyt1284]

Love my baja

[@Syphic001]

These rovan bajas are a great deal

[@Matthew_Does_To_Many_Things]

What a monster!

[@donkyuhbuhts540]

Sickening baja

[@rzrbladesrc1375]

Shockening😂😂mint👌

[@hybrid32494]

Thank you bro. You're the most SICKENING comment today!!!

[@YOVlogs]

Gr8 video and this looks very powerful my point is can u make wheelies on this massive engine power ?

[@420duro]

I would really hope so my stock 23cc hpi baja will pull the front end more than a foot on grass

[@4D_Recovery]

Cool Hybrid have you got a 5T ?

[@michaelinzitari]

There is a shockening full set of sway bars in the front! Haha

[@keithstone3263]

I had to reduce the amount of travel the steering servo gets to keep it going straight. I have mine at about 45%

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude!! that is a good idea, I need to look into that. This was just a first test drive video in the fully stock setting, you know! Thank you dude!

[@That_Nitro_Bug]

Squats eh the baja likes a workout 💪 🤣

[@jonathanbarnette8713]

Nice my dude 😎 HELLO 👑 Melissa! How u doing ❤️

[@wades5thscaleforlife872]

I had sym steer in my baja and took it out broke to many parts and it was to quick for my liking

[@toolbaggers]

That's a fancy -wheelie bar- tuned pipe. 🤔

[@hybrid32494]

Haha. Yes!! Good point. From what I heard the owner has ordered a rear wheelie bar for this Baja, it’s a great idea because these pipes are very exposed in the rear the wheelie bar provides the only useful protection you can get for this chassis.

[@jamessimeroth168]

Good Morning😊 Buggy GANG With GAS

[@hybrid32494]

Good morning my dude!! Nitro and gas weekend is here!! I think I will break out a nice Tmaxx today and maybe an HPI trophy buggy 3.5. Have a great day man see you on the next one

[@isaiahdiaz1013]

WE LOVE 5TH SCALE

[@hybrid32494]

thank you man!! I love them too!! More will be here soon for this channel.. We gonna make 1/5 Scales GREATER than ever before!!! loll

[@johannesb.1658]

yes this is the best Rofun baja 5B 2WD 1/5 Gas

[@cs-xd9gy]

Now it just needs a 2 SPEED BABY!!!

[@hybrid32494]

LOL, hey my dude! You are not wrong!! You know This channel loves the 2-speed baby!!

[@rcdudeqo]

Sweet

[@johnlawrence5757]

I need one of them sir

[@RickyD1968]

Fearless RC for $839.99 but it is out of stock currently for this Rovan 45cc Baja RTR !!!

[@michaelinzitari]

Is the Alu roll cage solid Alu or hollow Alu? The hobao hyper cage is the worst rc in history because the hollow cage breaks first time you flip (and it gets filthy in 5 seconds)

[@l4ncer2005]

I aggre with the sound of that pipe i also got into a figth with a mtf and beated his ass and still braping the baja 😂

[@hybrid32494]

nobody can kill the baja bro. you know how it goes! thanks for watching my dude and lets make those neighbors know the GAS Gang life right here..

[@thaguy7732]

Where is this available?

[@nomusicrc]

What is symmetrical steering

[@hybrid32494]

hey dude! I got your comment about the HPI servo horn parts!! that would be highly appreciated! Anyways Bajas tend to have pretty terrible steering but there is an upgrade many people do which is called "Symmetrical Steering". I've never done it myself, but it makes for a tiger turning radius due to different linkages and linkage setup. This baja has very tight turns while my own non-symmetrical steering baja has a very WIDE turn.

[@EZR]

It seems that car is sliding out because the diff might be tight. If you hold the brake and turn one rear wheel forward the other should turn the opposite way quite easily.

[@Jackyl82334]

Happy birthday

[@keithstone3263]

The Rovan Baja can also use HPI Baja parts.

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude! Thanks for checking out this video, you're right. Many parts from the HPI Baja are a direct fit.

[@Angry-Lynx]

U mean hpi Baja can use rovan parts, because hpi doesn't produce it anymore and nobody sells them, while rovan is plenty

[@ramos.nitrorc]

where can i buy this in the US??

[@nicolacox270]

Al Capone.

[@Wyatt_Saunders]

First!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@skycorrigan6511]

Under $1k?! Damn I may have to do it

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! yes man this is a whole LOTTTA RC for the price. to build something like this would cost much more.

[@Angry-Lynx]

Get the cheapest one it's the best deal. Most of stuff you pay for in those "better" Baja's is useless aluminium parts. And actually much worse engine. Their small 29cc engine is decent. 45cc is useless and slow and overheats like biatch

[@meudrone4k369]

Chique carro baja 🏎💥🚗🚀🎶🦾🥰🤩👍🏻

[@hollywoodundead72]

45cc is enough to pull you around ez

[@hybrid32494]

yes my dude, it sure is. In fact I have an older video on this channel where I tower an entire Christmas tree with only a stock 30CC baja. So trust me, even 30CC is plenty enough. The gas engines got tons of power for towing.

[@redsmagic4907]

The Baja 5B has a poor design around the brakes. Gears and shafts can be damaged by excessive force. I replaced the hospital wheel with disc brakes.

[@Rc_cars]

congratulations on the purchase, change the rubber right away. this rubber is simply nothing to do both on asphalt and off-road

[@jamiemurray1886]

Off road tyres them ya gonna lose them quick on road

[@user-uc1qz8oq9h]

but suspension arms are still plastic

[@hybrid32494]

Yes the suspension arms are a NYLON plastic material and that is 100% what you want. They provide some flexibility and will be easy and cheap to replace if needed. Trust me, there is a reaoson why the arms are not aluminum.

[@clayton8465]

Rofun no fun. Buy a hpi.

[@hybrid32494]

Hey man thanks for checking out this video but I got to tell you there’s absolutely nothing wrong with a rovan products you seem like an RC supremacist to me. Why don’t you come help me fix this Nitro TC 3 2 speed and then maybe we can become friends.

[@clayton8465]

@@hybrid32494 nope. No nitro for me any more. Strictly 1/5 gas.

[@hybrid32494]

@@clayton8465 lol. Got you bro! I’m looking to get another fifth scale myself this Rovan wasn’t actually mine from this video bro.

[@rcaddict4375]

I hope that company goes under. Couldn’t come up with their own original rc so they stole the HPI Baja 5b. Pure trash

[@Angry-Lynx]

Well they are now main fifth scale petrol producer so.... Yes quality could be better but they kinda saved fifth scale... Idk if anybody noticed but nowadays you can get pretty much only rovan, and few other clones companies like 30dnt or km but still, it's mostly rovan. In whole Europe you can get only rovan

[@Angry-Lynx]

So they actually did more good to fifth scale industry than Hpi and łosi combined. It's law of market. They were overpriced and lost market to better priced and well distributed rovan. And if you ask me it's good thing. They were too greedy. I like hpi but not in fifth scale, parts and car prices were out of this world

[@independentassesor2630]

Would this be better than a Version HPI Baja 5b with a 45cc engine? Do these have stronger differences than the hpi baja's that cake with a smaller 23cc motor and how does the chassis and parts strength compare? Appreciate your help

[@petesterk9510]

Concidering this is called a Clone of the HPI Baja 5B Roven will never be allowed on the track as there shit is cheap and junk Waist of money on Roven Products be safe be HPI

[@Angry-Lynx]

Considering hpi lost fifth scale market looong time ago not sure how's that's possible 😂 Clones all the way! Away with corporate greed of "originals"! Most people would never get into fifth scale if there was only hpi and łosi, because of it's winded prices. That includes me and today I own both baja and 5ive clones and no.regrets
