Are You Ready for the Speed and Power of the Bullet Flux?
The hugely popular HPI Bullet ST Flux has been updated with an all-new look, and this super tough off-road fun machine is ready for action at your command!
The Bullet ST Flux can blast through any type of terrain thanks to the immense power of its powerful brushless motor going through its 4WD drivetrain. Getting to awesome speeds and catching massive air has never been more fun! The durable, robust design of the Bullet means it can take hard landings and rough action, and the waterproof protection means it's protected from the elements so you can enjoy year-round action.
Underneath the brand new paint scheme, the Bullet Flux has a rugged 8-shock double-wishbone suspension, tough shaft drive, metal gear diffs and reliable 2.4GHz radio system. All you need to provide is a battery pack - and nerves of steel to control the powerful Bullet Flux!
The Bullet ST features a low, aerodynamic body with racing number plates and a rear spoiler for extra downforce. The truck bed even has an angled cover to decrease drag and direct air over the spoiler. The paint scheme is an all-new design of black, silver and orange and combined with street-style 5-spoke black chrome wheels for a stunning overall look! The styling of the front end is enhanced by the classic pick-up truck look of the grille and headlights, and the hood bulges enhance the powerful look of the Bullet. The front and rear bumpers and window details including roll bars and window nets all enhance the racing truck looks, which is finished off with low-profile studded tires wrapped around shiny black chrome wheels.
2.4GHz Radio System
All HPI kits are fitted with a comfortable and feature-packed HPI 2.4GHz radio system for supreme control and confidence! The radio features a pistol-grip design with a realistic steering wheel, servo reversing and steering dual rate. It's also extremely lightweight due to it requiring only four AA batteries. You won't have to worry about radio crystals or what channel other RC racers are using with our 2.4GHz technology - the radio does all that work for you! The radio prevents frequency conflicts automatically and changes channels if there is any interference. Finally, if you ever lose radio signal, an electronic failsafe will bring it to a safe and controlled stop. You'll have professional-level control in one easy RTR package!
Waterproof
The Bullet Flux trucks feature an enclosed electronics compartment for the battery and receiver, a sealed waterproof switch, waterproof steering servo and finally a waterproof speedo that allows you to keep running your Bullet in extreme conditions that would kill just about any other vehicle! Want to tackle that muddy bog? How about that stream crossing? A bit of rain about to fall? It's all good for the Bullet ST Flux! Please note: This HPI vehicle is designed to provide water protection so it can be driven in wet conditions (e.g. rain, snow, puddles). Not for submersion. See manual for details.
Strong Aluminum Alloy Chassis
Formed from 6061 aluminum for a combination of strength and light weight, the Bullet Flux chassis is durable and looks great! Thick sheet aluminum is stamped into shape to form the ideal backbone for all the various components that make the Bullet trucks so tough! The front kick-up provides extra control at all speeds, essential for a go-anywhere, do-anything vehicle like the Bullet. The sides are also bent upwards to give extra ground clearance in tight turns, but also vastly increased longitudinal stiffness - perfect for all your off-road adventures!
Compact & Balanced Layout
The Bullet Flux is packed with features, with every component placed exactly where it needs to be to have the perfect weight distribution front to rear and side to side. The steering servo is placed in a "laydown" configuration for a low center of gravity, and the weight of the motor and battery balance each other on either side of the chassis. The speed controller is placed in the back of the chassis, along the centerline, where it can get the most cooling air as well as protection from mud and dirt that gets kicked up by the front tires.
Tough 4WD Shaft Drivetrain
The drivetrain used in all Bullet trucks is a full-time four-wheel drive shaft-type drivetrain, just like the one used in 1/8th scale buggies like the World Champion HB D815 buggy. A shaft drivetrain is the best option for a kit that's expected to encounter every possible driving condition and track surface, so whether you're blasting through mud, water, dirt, grass, snow or gravel, it's the ideal type of drivetrain for your off-road adventures!
Durable Protected Drivetrain
A strong plastic 54-tooth spur gear takes the power from the engine and transmits it front and rear through an adjustable dual pad slipper clutch. The center dogbones drive the front and rear bevel differentials, which use 4 internal gears for increased durability and lifetime over weaker 2-gear diffs. Braking power is provided by the HPI Flux brushless motor, giving just as much stopping strength as the steel disc brake supplied on nitro versions of the Bullet!
HPI Flux Power!
The HPI Flux system installed in the Bullet Flux kits features the same mind-bending brushless technology that makes the Savage XS, Savage Flux HP and Vorza Flux HP kits so absolutely insane - truly awesome power packed into a compact and tidy package!
The incredible power from the Flux MMH-4000KV motor gives the lightweight Bullet Flux trucks an immense power-to-weight ratio for ripping acceleration and blinding top speed! The Flux MMH-4000KV motor features modern brushless inner workings wrapped with a cool black-anodized aluminum case, while the new waterproof Flux EMH-3S speed controller features bullet connectors for the motor, Dean's plug battery connector and even a cooling fan right on top to keep things ice-cold! The power switch and setting button are both completely waterproof, and the electric connections are surrounded with a waterproof compound that lets you bomb through mud and puddles without a worry! The Bullet can handle up to 7 NiMH cells or 3S LiPo batteries to give the truck insane top speeds and amazing acceleration!
Please note: the electronics are not designed for submerged operation. Be sure to rinse off any dirt or salt water with clean water immediately after driving. Check the receiver box to make sure no water is inside and let dry fully before driving again.
Check out the video! This video shows the Bullet MT Flux and Bullet 3.0 MT Nitro. We are able to order the Bullet 3.0 MT Nitro at an advantageous price as a special order (lead time, approx 30 days) but are not able to offer fuel, engine warranty or repairs on nitro models so do not keep them in stock. For normal use the Flux models are the same speed now, cleaner to operate and far more reliable.
