HPI Racing posted the following along with a teaser pic on their Facebook page.

"Ask and you shall receive...HPI 1/5th Scale 4WD."

If you go to Facebook and view the post, you will see a pic of the hood with a big 'F' in the middle.

'F' stands for Flux which means it's electric. It also stands for FAIL! LOL

They are supposed to be releasing information about this today, I've still not seen anything more than the hood shoot.

I'll hold my comments until I see more info. :)
 
I added the FB link to my first post.
 
Even though I love electric for the smaller scale RC,'s I have zero interest in electric for 5th scale. Gasser with it's 30+ minutes of run time is where it's at for 5th scale. 10-15 minutes for an electric blows and the constant threat of heat problems sucks.
 
So much for HPI releasing any further info on this over the weekend to coincide with the Hostile event. LOL

Losi stole the show.
 
Okay, so it isn't just me that wasn't able to find any additional info. :)
