HPI Racing Jumpshot MT Fuzion RTR

During last week’s Nuremberg International Toy Fair HPI Racing have introduced the Jumpshot MT Fuzion 1/10th scale 2WD ready-to-run monster truck. Based off of the standard Jumpshot truck the vehicle features a Twin Vertical Chassis design, modular steering and a tough drivetrain to handle the power of the newly-added Fuzion brushless motor and LiPo-ready speed controller. The high-power unit makes for an increased power-to-weight ratio for more acceleration and top speed, equalling in longer jumps, bigger air and more fun. The set is rounded out by a pre-painted bodyshell, grippy all-terrain tyres on silver chrome wheels and a 2.4GHZ radio system.
