have had my 5b for about 2 years been sitting in storage so to speak.. just got it running.. watching this video has got me so pumped... no hop ups or anything about to start from scratch.. im so excited....
This place is called Gordon's Well. Its in the Imperial Sand Dunes, south of Glamis about 20 miles. Near the corners of California, Arizona and the Mexico Border
I want to take my bikes, kids, friends, and all of my RC related items to the dunes so bad!!! Never rode sand or paddle with my bike or my 1/5th but is probably a blast. Wide open!!!!!!!!
Gotta love it and I have one. The best part I ever done was going downhill until going up and jump across the 2 lane road and landed at down hill. So freaking insane but it a suicide attempt for that Baja due if not enough speed then it'll end up hit right directly to the curb like only 5 feet short to land safety in 1 piece. Baja rocks!
Thanks guys, its fun making these...but its been busy so I haven't been able to get more vids out. Hopefully next season since this one is over already.
Sick video man!!! Just got one and don't get tp shred on dunes like that but I will this summer on vaca!.... until then just shredding in old abandon lots!!!! SICK KEEP IT UP!!! :D
Nice, now be prepared to keep fixing it after every tank of gas :) Something always breaks. This just reminded me I need to get a new steering servo as the one in the buggy is locked. :(
must not be stock, no way would a stock baja survive even 1 of those jumps and i know because it took $1200 in aftermarket parts on mine before i could even run it without a part failing and yes i have a genuine HPI
Ok first, I really wouldnt care if it were 60-75ft any chump can pull the trigger on a toy. Now that being said, i call BS, the length is determined in a linear flat line. NOT accounting for drop, that is not part of the distance, if it were I would jump an RC off of the empire state building and have the record for more than a 1000 ft jump with an RC. Dropping down a dune and claiming distance is horsecrap, put it on an mx track and hit a 75 foot triple, lets see how it does. I am not even saying it cant, I am just saying that jumping it down anything will make the distance seem longer. Furthermore, I ride mx and frequently jump 75ft, I am not seeing 60-75ft, although video can be deceiving, it is not even close.
Craig Lumsden The Baja even though it did jump 60-75 feet in •height• there is more down force of the landing than it would in •length• is what I can say.

have you got one without the music?
finally after 4 yrs of wanting one I bought an ss going to build it soon
I really loved your video. Great stuff! Thanks for posting.
What a Awesome video and song to match .
You don't understand how much I want one of these!
Best video of Baja 5b SS !!!
Fuckin-a, nice way Kool video 👍👍👍
The music ruins this video. RC enthusiasts who watch these videos want to hear the car's motor.
it does... indeed ruin it
Not worst music i heard on rc vid ... But yeah have to agree
Get rid of the music we want to hear the engine
Gettin one next month!!! Can't wait
Awesome sauce. Great job on the video. Looked like a friggin ton of fun.

How much cc ?

Has the HPI baja 5b SS been pretty durable? oks like a great rc car!!!!
Thanks for sharing!!!!
Nothin better than a few kilograms of sand in the gearbox and intake :)
song?
Good video. I like to hear the sound of the engines rather than music. Good looking baja though
omg.. There massive jumps m8 Thumbs up...!!! yes yes
great vid but 60-75 ft?
What is the name of the song?
tear away-drowning pool
Sick jumps!!
yes, for the most part. Just heavy duty wheels and sand tires. I kept breaking the stock wheels.
I just got my 5b ss… a little late to the party 😅
I like hpi baja and I live this band Browning pool so it's gooooooood
well done!
how come they break so easy? thought HPI were decent?
Best video!!
Cool vid but I recommend a gopro hero 3 onboard ; 0 )
Good tunes...and good dunes...brap
The jump at 2:52 alone was 22 yards
HVanderpool3 put the tape measure down and step away from the sandbox
Insane jumps man ! Thats huge rc air ... and I know haha
I could watch that shit all day
Fucking amazing video. Thank you.

Maybe next time you can turn the music up in the video.? I could hardly hear myself drilling. Horrific music. Good footage of the Baja though.
I like the location
Nice.
Have a nice day ;)

Awsome
Best Place for Car xD
ile taki
doesnt look anywhere near 60-70 feet distance ,only hight is the drop to the ground...lame.
they seem slow
Sand. Even with the paddle tires.
bet the shit fing broke
M
more like 10-20ft
get rid of the music
That SHIT is BAD as FUK ! ! ! ! I have the Jato and a Tricked out Revo 3.3 They shred also and don't break so easy when you put RPM parts on them!

Still. Its a big win for the Baja no matter what.
You mad bro? Lol
