HPI Racing
Hobby Products International (HPI) Racing is a leading American manufacturer of radio-controlled models, known for its innovative and high-quality products for enthusiasts of all levels. Founded in 1986, the company initially specialized in electric models, such as the RS4 series, one of the first electric touring cars on the market. Over time, HPI Racing expanded its lineup to include nitro-powered models, off-road vehicles, and large-scale RC cars.
Key achievements of the company include:
- Nitro RS4 – a model that helped popularize nitro-powered touring cars.
- Micro RS4 – pioneered the 1/18 scale RC car category.
- Savage – made 1/8 scale monster trucks a mainstream category.
- Baja 5B – the first widely popular 1/5 scale off-road model.
In 2019, HPI Racing underwent a change in ownership, with the Scandinavian Vestergaard Group becoming the primary stakeholder. With over 50 years of experience in the hobby industry, this partnership aims to restore and further develop the brand, leveraging its rich heritage and innovation potential.
By continuously introducing cutting-edge technologies and maintaining high-quality standards, HPI Racing remains a top choice among professionals and RC hobbyists worldwide.
