HB Racing PRO5 HBS114500

This is the Hot Bodies PRO5 Competition 1/10th Electric Touring Car Kit. After a more than a year of development, the HB PRO5 was ready for a trial by fire. Taking everything learned with previous HB touring cars and feedback from some of the worlds best drivers, the HB team has created what they feel is the ultimate touring car racer for RC professionals and club racers around the world. This means the HB PRO5 is a completely fresh design, full of innovation and unique parts. The PRO5 features all the latest trends and developments in electric touring car racing, and has been track-tested, rebuilt and dialed in week after week at race tracks around the world. Team HB has put in the time needed to make the HB PRO5 one of the best models in its class. Tuned to Perfection Completely adjustable down to the finest detail, the PRO5 can be adjusted for any driving style on any race track. From roll center to wheelbase, camber to track width, every parameter of the PRO5 can be tuned to suit any driver, under any circumstances. Chassis The main chassis is cut from 2.25mm woven carbon fiber, fitted with 7075 aluminum bulkheads. The design of the motor and layshaft mount allows for better weight distribution and efficiency. A 2mm woven carbon fiber upper deck sits on top of the aluminum bulkheads. The PRO5 also features a woven carbon fiber floating servo mount and floating battery mount to allow the chassis to flex properly for consistent handling in all conditions. Drivetrain A high-efficiency drive belt and alloy pulleys are standard equipment, and large 40-tooth pulleys at each end surround the extra-large rear gear diff and the front solid spool. DCJ-style front universals and standard rear universals are driven by alloy diff outdrives for low rotating weight, and clamp-style hex adapters are securely fitted to the drive axles. The front hex adapters have an extra-thin narrow profile, allowing you to easily alter the front track width for an optimized steering feel for your style. Suspension The suspension features a huge number of updates and is full of unique parts, including the thick woven carbon fiber shock towers, threaded aluminum big bore shocks and totally redesigned suspension arms. Easy access ball cups mean you can change roll centers quickly using shims, and of course turnbuckles are fitted as standard equipment. Because ultra-precise steering is a requirement for all touring car racers, the PRO5 is fitted with reliable bearing-supported bellcrank steering for extra-smooth action, using alloy arms for strength and durability. The Ackermann setting is easily adjustable using orange-anodized shims, and the steering turnbuckles connect to woven lightweight carbon fiber steering arms.
