Technical Performance
The HOBAO H2 Rear Hub Set H40026 is manufactured to withstand the operational demands placed on modern RC vehicles. As a suspension component in the hub assembly category, this part experiences significant stress during acceleration, braking, cornering, and impact situations. HOBAO designs their hub components with materials and engineering that provide the rigidity needed to maintain precise suspension geometry whilst also offering sufficient strength to absorb the repetitive impacts and forces inherent in RC driving. The rear hub assembly is critical for maintaining the correct wheel camber and alignment angles, which directly influences your model's handling balance, tyre wear characteristics, and overall lap times or run performance. Whether you're driving your HOBAO H2 on a competitive race track, a rough off-road course, or casual terrain in your local RC driving area across the UK, having quality genuine rear hubs ensures your suspension performs as the engineers intended, giving you confidence in how your model responds to your control inputs and maintains traction throughout every corner and straightaway.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a rear hub set and why do I need one for my HOBAO H2? — The rear hub set is the component that connects your suspension arms to your rear wheels on your HOBAO H2 RC model. It's essential for transmitting all control inputs and suspension forces to your wheels. You'll need to replace yours if you've damaged the existing hubs through crashes, stripped the bearing holes, cracked the hub body, or worn them significantly during aggressive driving. Having spare hubs means you can quickly get back on the track without waiting for repairs.
- Is this a genuine HOBAO part or an aftermarket alternative? — This is a genuine OEM HOBAO spare part, not an aftermarket clone or imitation. You can verify this through the official HOBAO part number H40026 and the EAN code 4717677171426. Buying genuine HOBAO parts ensures perfect fitment, proper engineering tolerances, and the reliability HOBAO is known for in the RC community.
- How difficult is it to install the HOBAO H2 Rear Hub Set? — The installation difficulty depends on your mechanical experience with RC vehicles, but since this is a direct OEM replacement part, it's generally straightforward. You'll need to remove your old hubs, transfer over any bearings or shims if they're still serviceable, and install the new hub set. Basic RC tools like hex drivers and potentially a bearing press tool may be required. If you're experienced with RC maintenance and repairs, you should be able to handle this installation yourself.
- What other components do I need to complete my suspension repair? — Depending on what caused your hub damage, you may need other suspension spares such as suspension arms, bearings, shims, or screws. The hub set itself is the main component, but you should inspect the rest of your suspension during installation to identify any other worn or damaged parts that should be replaced at the same time. Replacing multiple suspension components together often improves overall performance and reliability.
- How much does the HOBAO H2 Rear Hub Set cost? — At RC Model Shop, we price this genuine HOBAO spare part competitively. Our current price is £4.27, which represents excellent value for an authentic OEM HOBAO component. This is a modest investment that could save you considerably when compared to replacing multiple suspension components or your entire model if worn hubs cause further damage.
- Is stock available now, or will I need to wait for delivery? — The HOBAO H2 Rear Hub Set H40026 is available to order from our supplier stock, though stock status may vary. We recommend checking current availability on our website or contacting our team directly to confirm delivery timescales if you need this part urgently for an upcoming race or driving session.
