- Welcome to Steel City RC channel. This is some footage of my HPI Baja 5T that I recently got together. I bought it used a couple years ago. Now finally back together. Rather unfortunate roll over crash ended it's day too soon. I literally got five minutes total run time today. So much fun though. I forgot how much of an animal the OBR g340 Signature Series was. Happy to have it. Get out and RC guys! Thanks for watching!!
Play, fix & repeat. Thanks for sharing G 👊😎👍
Right!! I wasn't even disappointed that I broke it so fast.. It ran so well I didn't give a f. Need some limit straps for the arms. Actually excited to get it back out. Thanks for watching my friend 👊🤘
It was a short rip, but a good one!
Thanks for sharing, as always!
Thank you Steve! Man I was thinking in my head as I was running it. Wow is this thing fun. Is this gonna be my go to rig? Then I got whiskey throttle and landed that jump all jacked up lol. I got a load of spare parts from "some dude" about a week ago. All is good again. Appreciate the support my friend 👊🤘
awesome rc and setup,sounds awesome
Thanks Duke! Very excited for this
Cool she’s running great 👍
Thank you so much! That engine is so impressive. It pushed my 43 pound Losi mtxl around for a year no problems. Now it is hitting the high notes in here. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Great set up. Looked good in the air. I love a good running small bore! 🤜🤛🤝
Thanks man! I feel a good running small bore is where it's at in the type of baja truck I want. I enjoy jumping and rooting around. Thanks for the eyeballs brother 👊🤘
Nice Baja. That thing is getting with it...
Thanks man! It is very fun to drive!!!
there's nothing wrong with wanting to keep your hard earned money in your pocket, rather then someone elses! Great video and sweet rig man !
Thank You!!!
Couldn't have said it better! We work hard for our money. I like to be as wise with it as possible. Saved some money repurposing that OBR engine that has been in a drawer. Now to sort out the shocks and some limit straps. I think it will be formidable. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘

Awesome G! She sounds good and was REALLY gettin it across the field! Seems like a natural in the air too! Glad to see you’re pleased with it now! I was confident in the setup personally. That is a great engine!
Glad it was minor damage brother!
Todd! Thanks man! I was having so much fun. It was running fantastic. Jumping well. Till I was a bit too much into the throttle on the last jump. No air control so setup is key. Hope to see ya before summer ends! 👊🤘
@@SteelCityRC 😊
Awesome job Gorley Baja running strong and looks great bud 💪👊🏻👍🔥🔥
Hopefully easy repair
Kris I really appreciate that man! I had no friggin clue what I was doing. So I kinda drug my feet doing it. As you can see I skimped using stock shocks with no limiters. Had no idea they broke that easy. Thanks for watching brother 👊🤘
Just a shock. Glad I didn't lose an axle pin...
That’s a nice looking rig you put together brother 🎉!!! Not to bad of a break !!
Yo John thanks man! It is my first attempt at a baja truck. Seems pretty fragile. But they are stock ten year old shocks too. I just rebuilt the innerds. Thanks for watching my friend 👊🤘
@@SteelCityRC your welcome!! The old plastic ends get brittle !! I’m sure the new end with wd40 soaked in will do the trick !! Soak those arms too !! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice man👍 crap happens! , I put the Kraken arms and hung pins on my 5T also love the stance now, also I converted it to brushless 12s
Thanks man! I was just starting to have fun. Then I held into the throttle too long. Front end too high. It rolled. It's day over 😁 but man that OBR in there. Loving it. Dude I had no idea you have a 12S baja truck. Has to be a handful hey?
@@SteelCityRC I use it on the ice in the winter time , , 63 mph is my top speed so far with the SMC Lipos, there some video of it on my page , not the best lol , living on the lake I have a lot of Karen’s complaining on my gas RC ,s so brushless seams to keep them quite 🤞
Nice rip👍
Thanks RC brother! Had some carnage too soon. But tons of fun doing it. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Love the Baja! I would definitely keep most of this parts plastic! I tried metal before and the plastic is actually better because of the flex IMO!
Thank you brother! I agree. Plastic is where it's at. Unfortunately I broke a shock end in that crash lol. Some good shocks and limit straps I think it will be an animal. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
@@SteelCityRC Can't wait to see it rip again! Something about those trucks with a gas motor just seems awesome to me!
Sweet
Thanks RC brother! Means a lot coming from you 👊🤘
First 👍🔥
Thanks RC brother 👊🤘
👍💪🙏✊️💯
Thanks for watching brother 👊🤘
Irc big bore shocks and limited cables from swing P
Hello. That is exactly what I did. But used straps and Kraken extended plastic arms. Been a beast. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
Great video! Where did you get those specific 19/55 gears?
Hey thanks! I am using a UFC clutch and bell and Blackbone gears. All ordered from Detroit Performance RC. Appreciate you stopping by 👊 🤘
sweet! Is that the same gear that can be used on the two speed because thats the only one i can find@@SteelCityRC
@@ostoura9945 yes it is. Remember that those gears require a special bell for fitment. Center hole is different.
Too bad your fun was cut short.
Right!! Thank you so much for watching!!
