Up for sale is my hardly used HPI RS4 with believed to be a Team Orion Wasp .12 nitro engine.
It was hardly used as it was sold to me as working, but wasn't when i got it so spent 3 months at my local hobby shop where I hoped once it came out would be running, however, £60 later it still wasn't running 100% due to no experience with nitro engines i'd rather just sell it on rather then tinker with it myself.
I have managed to get about an hours play from it so everything works fine, just needs fine tuning which isn't somthing I can do, and I've bought a brushless system since it was at the hobby shop and dont see the need for two cars as I just have the time to play with the one.
It has 2 speeds and is very quick!
It's had a new steering servo with a metal gear at the hobby shop and a clutch which both have had an hours use.
One thing that may need replacing is the exhaust for one thats suited for the wasp engine as the guy in the shop said it's just an original HPI exhaust not one for the engine which may be causing it to be running tempermantal, but I can't say for sure.
It starts fine, it's just once it's started is the problem as when you take the glow starter off it will somtimes stall, I assume due to not being hot enough, once its reached temp and runs by its own it does run off a bit so maybe trottle trim or somthing adjusting on the engine itself, if you give it too much throttle it will somtimes stall probibly due to the engine not being tuned correctly.
Comes with plenty of sets of wheels/tyres, starter box, glow starter, nitro bottle, spare glow plug and a Plymouth hemi cuda shell in bright green, looks amazing!
All this needs is some nitro, some tuning of which my hobby shop was not sucessful of doing but got it close to, so I'd imagen it wouldn't take much more tuning seeing as its close and also a 12v battery supply for the box starter, a car battery works.
Any questions please dont hesitate to ask, will try my best to answer.
Looking for £140 posted.
