HPI Racing Trophy Flux Buggy 101874 Exploded View

The recommended battery type for the HPI Racing Trophy Flux Buggy 101874 is a 2S or 3S LiPo battery, which provides the necessary power for optimal performance.
First, check the battery voltage and connections. Ensure that the ESC is properly calibrated and the transmitter is bound to the receiver. If the problem persists, inspect the motor connections and servo functionality.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the buggy after use, checking and tightening screws, lubricating moving parts, inspecting the suspension, and verifying that the drivetrain components are in good condition.
To adjust the suspension, change the shock oil weight, spring tension, and adjust the shock positions on the shock tower and arms to suit different track conditions, such as loose or hard-packed surfaces.
Store the buggy in a cool, dry place. Disconnect the battery and ensure it’s stored at a proper storage voltage. Clean the buggy before storing to prevent dirt and moisture from causing damage.
To improve runtime, use a battery with a higher mAh capacity, ensure that the drivetrain is free from unnecessary friction, and avoid aggressive driving that can quickly drain the battery.
Ensure that both the transmitter and receiver are powered on and properly bound. Check for any interference and ensure that the transmitter batteries are fully charged. Also, inspect the wiring connections to the receiver.
To calibrate the ESC, turn on the transmitter, hold the throttle at full, and then power on the ESC. Wait for the confirmation beeps, then move the throttle to neutral followed by full brake. The ESC should confirm calibration with a series of beeps.
Upgrades such as high-performance tires, aluminum suspension components, a stronger steering servo, and a brushless motor system can significantly enhance the buggy’s performance.
To waterproof the buggy, use waterproof electronics, seal the receiver box with silicone or a similar sealant, and ensure any exposed connections are covered with waterproof tape or heat shrink tubing.
