About the HPI Nitro RS4 F150 RTR 3

New design makes the ready to run HPI Nitro RS4 3 even better for parking lot racers.

Shaft Drive Transmission

The new shaft drive transmission provides protection against small pebbles. It also makes maintenance easier.

HPI Nitro RS4 Engine

The 15FE engine is upgraded with an aluminum heat sink head, a one-piece manifold, and composite dual chamber tuned pipe. The result is improved acceleration and higher top speed.

HPI Nitro RS4 TX2 Radio Control System

This narrowband AM transmitter and receiver allows precise control of the nitro RS4. You can play or race with friends by choosing among the 6 available frequencies. Includes a dual rate steering system, very important to make your car handle better.

Review of the HPI Nitro RS4

Quality: 5 stars
Speed: 4 stars
Fun Factor: 5 stars
Price: 4 stars

Overall rating: 4.5 stars (excellent)

The ready to run kit is high quality. Airtronics radio system, full ball bearing, and tuned pipe are indications of high quality.

At 36 mph stock, this car gets 4 stars. This is fast for a single speed transmission. And if you want more, you can upgrade to a 2-speed transmission and push the speed to 40+ mph.

The looks and design using shaft drive makes this car fun and easy to maintain. Nitro adds realism such as sound, smell, and speed. Definitely a 5 star on the fun factor.

At around $270, complete and ready to run, this is a cheap nitro rc car. A good deal if you ask me.

* 5 stars is the highest

Testimonials from the Forum of HPI

I just got it a few weeks ago, and I'm hooked for life. My problem is that there aren't a lot of parking lots paved properly so the body I had on it the first time (F-150 Flareside) got destroyed pretty fast. I switched to an Impreza body and now I love it even more. No hop ups yet but I'm gonna hop it during the summer months. Thanks HPI for giving me hour upon hours of enjoyment.

Hey guys. This is my first nitro R/C car and it is great. I have had for almost a year and had very few problems. Only minor things. It is a HPI RS4 RTR 3 with a blue Viper body. It has a 2 speed upgrade, HPI racing clutch, Motor Saver Air filter, fiber disc brake, and a racing fuel tank. Bigger engine and THS tuned pipe on way. Thanks for all the fun hours

My RS4 3 has been wonderful for me! It handles like a dream and it won 3rd place in the championship race at my local hobby shop, Hobby Town USA of West Chester. I love to race my car at the track weekly. It has been a great hobby for me and I have learned a lot.
