The HPI Venture Wayfinder is an RC trail truck that embodies the spirit of exploration, ready to traverse mountains, streams and beyond. It's not just a vehicle, it's a trusted ally for your weekend jaunts or grand explorations! Combining a realistic front-motor position and formed steel C-channel chassis rails with a realistic suspension and drivetrain results in a unique off-road experience HPI is proud to provide. The Wayfinder body is meticulously crafted in a vibrant metallic Gunmetal featuring black accents that embellish the arch extenders and sills creating a striking contrast. Clear windows provide a realistic look, adding an extra layer of authenticity to the model. With front and rear bumpers, mirrors, a functional roof rack, and a swing-away spare tire mount, the Venture provides an authentic trail experience. Several previous model optional parts are now standard equipment, including the Aluminum lower link set, Aluminum rear 4 link and Universal front driveshafts. The vehicle's performance is further enhanced by authentically scaled oil-filled shock absorbers and full-time locked differentials, and realistically treaded tires, ensuring dependable handling in all off-road conditions.
