Technical Performance
The HoBao HYPER SS/VS/VS2/CAGE Battery Tray H90060 is engineered with precision to accommodate the demanding requirements of modern 1/8 scale electric RC racing and high-performance bashing. The tray specifications accommodate batteries with a maximum length of 140mm and width of 48mm, which aligns perfectly with standard LiPo battery configurations commonly used in 4S and 6S brushless RC buggy and truggy setups. The design ensures optimal weight distribution within the chassis, which is critical for maintaining proper handling balance and improving overall vehicle performance on track and off-road. Built to OEM standards by HoBao, this component utilises materials and construction methods that can withstand the rigorous demands of competitive RC racing and serious weekend bashing. The battery tray's robust construction prevents battery shifting during high-speed cornering, acceleration, and braking, all of which generate substantial G-forces that could otherwise cause battery movement and instability. This spare part is designed to work seamlessly across the HoBao Hyper range, including the competition-oriented SS model, the versatile VS and VS2 variants, and the Cage buggy platform, demonstrating HoBao's commitment to standardised component design across their product lineup.
