HPI Baja 5B Question

[Loaded_Heavy]

Can the HPI Baja 5B and or T reverse? I've always hated Gas & Nitro buggies because of the fact that they can go in reverse and with the 5B and T being quite large you would need to back up at least a few times or so to turn around sometimes.

No. There isn't a factory aftermarket part to put in reverse. That isn't to say it can't be done, it has actually. Brice Arnold over at Skunkworks fabbed up a reverse module for his 5B.

Awesome but dang that thing is big and in an a real seenable area. I take it that if the 5B was converted to Brushless like member (Masterblaster) here on the forum that it would be able to reverse without a problem?
