Speed Passion has just released a brushless conversion kit for the HPI Baja large scale buggy. Speed Passion has spent the last 18 months developing the conversion kit to handle the stress of powering the 1/5th scale buggy, in the end the Speed Passion Baja 5 conversion kit is a direct fit for both the HPI Baja 5B and 5T vehicles...

Would a brushless one run faster than a stock gas? Would need to run like 9 or 10s lipo wouldnt you to get much outta it?
 
what motor size will fit, like 540, or 1/8th scale like the mm pro? And i think the mm pro on 6s will be s handful this, 25 lbs coming at you at like 60 mph, no thanks!! hahha
 
I bet 6s wouldnt be that exciting on this, I might be wrong though. 6s is cool on a 1/8th buggy but they are WAY smaller.
 
The Baja is one thing I would never consider converting to brushless.
 
+1! The Baja has plenty of snap and run time in stock form. I don't think that the conversion will have nearly the runtime that the gasser does.
 
It looks to be a nice piece but i wouldnt convert my baja. You could never stuff enough batteries into the chassis to match the run time of the fuelie motor. Props for a very clean setup though.
