    Hi there Mikael, a great looking and performing HPI, I loved the reverse shots and the slow motion shots. Especially those with the grass being ripped and thrown out the back! Awesome running, filming and editing. Take care and best wishes to you and the family 😊😁😉👊🏼

    Argh, what broke? Didn't look like a wild crash, on dirt... I was more scared when you showed that playground, looked like some of those features were real RC killers, but then that rubberized surface must have been cool to drive on. I just found a skatepark in the neighbouring village here, I need to take an HBX there sometime soon, try some fun before it gets too cold...
    And the other first thing I needed to comment, gotta love the sound of eighth scale!
    Have a great weekend there, buddy!

      Hi Mads! Ahh, just the rod end of the shock. Funny, never broke that on my Arrma. And yeah, couldn’t really do much on the small skate park with a 1/8 metal buggy. Much better with a small HBX with flexible plastic. I’ve also been meaning to do that but just never got around to it. And yeah, we should do it before it gets too cold ☺️ Love the sound of giant metal gears and giant brushless motors too. Hope you are having a great weekend my friend

    Hiya Mikael. Oh yeah this was high on my wish list for a while back in the day. I've just had a look and they are still available in the UK but I don't know if they are still producing it or if that is old stock. Looks pretty quick on 4s so should fly on 6s. You got some lovely slo-mo shots and I enjoyed the format and edit of the video. Hope that spares are available for this one. I've still got my HPI Firestorm but worry about driving it in case I can't get the spares. Anyway, happy Saturday mate. Best wishes to you and yours 🙂

    • @NordicRC
      @NordicRC  2 роки тому +2

      Hejsa Pete! Yeah, remember videos with these from when I started in the hobby again, almost ten years ago. I remember the Vorza was also a favorite for high speed cars. Nowadays it seems more like Arrma. I think they have stopped production of these again now, when the new Vorzas are out. But I hope they share a lot of parts. Maybe one day they will make a Firestorm II with reused parts from the old one. That would be lovely ☺️ Thank you for your kind feedback my friend. Best of Saturdays to you and yours.

      ​@@NordicRCI bloody brought one then realised a month later they brought out a new one! I love the old one but worried about parts now n it should've been cheaper going out of profuction and bloody hobbywing instead of the crazy torque castle motor it used to have. Cheaper system but same price grr.

    • @NordicRC
      @NordicRC  Рік тому +2

      Hi John. I think they are a bit of the same actually. The Vorza seems a bit better handling. But the Typhon seems a bit more durable. But both top quality and top fun ☺️

    HPI can`t handle anything, they just break from nothing.
    And cars like the Sport 3 Flux 911 came with front axles too short for the car, stripped spur gears every run, couldn`t adjust mesh because the motor was stuck to the motormount, the motormount was stuck to the chassis, chassis made of soft plastic and the only thing holding the bottom cover on which was what held the spur in place was also soft plastic, with machine screw in it.
    Absolute trash.
    HPI is garbage, buy Arrma, or even traxxASS instead.
    At least they don`t come broken from the factory or are literally impossible to work on..

    I brought this car finally was exoecting a flux tork (castle) and its got a hobbywing not as much torque, the gear up with the castle made 127kph the hobbywing only 111 kph not as much torque. Cheaper system but same price was spewing.
