Overview
The HoBao Hyper ST Centre Diff Plate H86027 is a precision-engineered replacement component designed specifically for HoBao Hyper ST Truggy models. This centre differential plate is an essential spare part for RC enthusiasts who demand reliable performance from their RC truggy. Whether you're a dedicated basher, weekend racer, or serious RC competitor, having quality replacement parts on hand ensures your RC car UK setup remains in peak condition. The Hyper ST range has earned a strong reputation in the RC community for delivering impressive speed and handling characteristics, and maintaining these standards requires genuine, factory-specification components.
Centre differential plates are critical components in modern RC truggy design, as they directly influence how power is distributed between the front and rear axles during acceleration, cornering, and deceleration. A worn or damaged centre diff plate can result in inconsistent traction, unpredictable handling, and accelerated wear on other drivetrain components. By choosing genuine HoBao replacement parts like the H86027, you're investing in the longevity and reliability of your RC model. This centre diff plate is compatible with both the HoBao Hyper ST Truggy Pro and the HoBao Hyper ST Truggy RTR variants, making it a versatile solution for owners of these popular ready to run RC vehicles.
At RC Model Shop, we stock only genuine HoBao replacement parts to ensure your RC truggy performs exactly as the manufacturer intended. The H86027 centre diff plate represents the precision engineering and attention to detail that HoBao brings to their RC truggy line, helping you maintain competitive performance whether you're running on grass, dirt, or concrete surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a centre differential plate and why does it need replacing? — The centre differential plate is a critical component in the differential assembly that helps distribute power between the front and rear axles of your RC truggy. During aggressive driving, high-speed cornering, and repeated acceleration cycles, this component experiences significant mechanical stress. Over time, wear on the plate can lead to inconsistent traction delivery, unpredictable handling behaviour, and potential damage to other drivetrain components. Replacing a worn centre diff plate restores the precision performance characteristics of your HoBao Hyper ST Truggy RTR or Pro model.
- Is this part compatible with my HoBao Hyper ST Truggy? — Yes, the H86027 centre diff plate is specifically designed for and compatible with both the HoBao Hyper ST Truggy Pro and the HoBao Hyper ST Truggy RTR. This makes it a straightforward replacement component for owners of either variant of this ready to run RC truggy platform.
- How difficult is it to install the centre diff plate? — Installation of this component requires disassembly of the centre differential assembly and is best undertaken by users with intermediate RC maintenance experience. The process involves removing fasteners, carefully extracting the worn plate, and installing the new component in the correct orientation. Refer to your HoBao Hyper ST service manual for detailed installation instructions and torque specifications to ensure proper assembly.
- Should I replace other differential components when replacing the centre diff plate? — While the centre diff plate can be replaced individually, experienced RC technicians often recommend inspecting the complete differential assembly, including gears, shims, and bearing components, during any differential service. If wear is visible on other components during disassembly, replacing these items simultaneously can improve overall drivetrain smoothness and longevity. However, the H86027 can be installed as a standalone replacement if other components remain serviceable.
- Where can I buy genuine HoBao replacement parts in the UK? — RC Model Shop is an authorised HoBao dealer stocking genuine factory replacement parts, including the H86027 centre diff plate, with rapid UK delivery available on orders over £99.
