Building the HPI Baja By the Book

Wednesday June 25, 2008
Have you ever wondered what is involved in building a hobby RC from a kit? In this continuing series of video tutorials (27 so far), Team Fast Eddy takes you step-by-step through the manual as they build an HPI Baja 5B SS. The videos start with a look at what you need to buy and the tools you'll need then take you through organizing what comes in the box then building it from the ground up, right up through installing the receiver and on/off switch. As more videos get added, this list will grow.

Even if you aren't building the HPI Baja, taking a look at a few of these videos -- and the number of them -- can give you a good idea of just how many steps it takes to build a hobby RC from a kit.
