Key Features
- CNC Machined Aluminium Construction — Manufactured using precision computer numerical control machining, these rear hubs are crafted from premium aluminium alloy to exacting tolerances, ensuring perfect dimensional accuracy and consistency across both units, which directly translates to improved suspension geometry and handling precision.
- Superior Durability Over Plastic Alternatives — Unlike the standard plastic wheel hex hubs supplied with the standard Hyper 10SC 2.0, these aluminium hubs offer dramatically improved resistance to impact damage, flexing and wear, making them essential if you regularly bash your RC truck in demanding conditions or race competitively.
- Enhanced Wheel Alignment and Reduced Play — The precision-machined design eliminates the flex and tolerance stack-up common in plastic hubs, ensuring your wheels remain perfectly aligned with the suspension geometry, which improves handling response, reduces tyre wear and enhances overall vehicle stability during aggressive driving.
- Direct Bolt-On Installation — These hubs are engineered as a direct replacement for the standard 12mm wheel hex hubs on the Hyper 10SC 2.0, meaning installation is straightforward and requires no modification to the vehicle structure, making this an accessible upgrade even for those with limited mechanical experience.
- Part of HOBAO's Complete Upgrade Ecosystem — These hubs work seamlessly with other optional HOBAO performance upgrades for the Hyper 10SC 2.0, including carbon fibre shock towers (HOP1-0070 and HOP1-0071), aluminium steering block sets (HOP1-0077) and alternative spring rates, allowing you to create a fully personalised performance package.
- Professional-Grade Engineering — Designed and manufactured by HOBAO, a recognised leader in high-performance RC vehicle engineering, these hubs meet the same exacting quality standards as all components in the Hyper 10SC 2.0 lineup, ensuring reliability and longevity.
Technical Performance
The HOBAO HYPER TT2.0 CNC ALUMINIUM REAR HUBS HOP1-0079 represent a significant upgrade in suspension engineering for the Hyper 10SC 2.0 1/10 scale short course truck platform. Constructed from precision-machined aluminium alloy using advanced CNC manufacturing techniques, these rear hubs are engineered to interface perfectly with the vehicle's 12mm wheel hex mounting system and dogbone axles. The Hyper 10SC 2.0 itself is powered by a 3900KV brushless motor paired with a Hobbywing 60A waterproof ESC, delivering responsive acceleration and impressive top-end performance for a short course truck in this scale category. The vehicle uses a 2S LiPo battery system exclusively, making it compatible with a wide range of readily available batteries from UK RC retailers. The standard plastic hubs on the stock vehicle are adequate for casual use, but the aluminium alternatives provide substantially greater rigidity and eliminate suspension geometry deflection that can affect handling precision. By upgrading to these CNC-machined aluminium hubs, you eliminate flex in the rear suspension mounting points, which directly improves the vehicle's response to steering inputs and maintains consistent suspension geometry even during hard cornering or jumps. The suspension itself features front and rear anti-roll bars, front PBS (parallel bar suspension) with newly designed steering blocks incorporating enlarged pivot balls and aluminium steering arms, along with strengthened composite upper and lower arms. The rear suspension geometry is optimised for the short course truck class, with a 240mm rear track width and adjustable camber and caster angles. These hubs work in conjunction with the rear differential, which features metal bevel gears and anti-leakage housing, filled with 5K silicone oil for smooth operation. The overall suspension tuning of the Hyper 10SC 2.0 benefits considerably from these precision-engineered hubs, as any flex in the wheel mounting system can compromise the carefully calibrated suspension response. For UK RC enthusiasts serious about maximising performance, whether competing in short course racing or enjoying high-speed bashing, these aluminium hubs are a worthwhile investment that will be appreciated whenever you push the vehicle to its limits.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these aluminium rear hubs fit my HOBAO Hyper 10SC 2.0? — Yes, the HOP1-0079 aluminium rear hubs are engineered as direct replacements for the standard 12mm wheel hex hubs supplied with the HOBAO Hyper 10SC 2.0 electric short course truck. They install without any modification to the vehicle and are compatible with the existing suspension geometry, axles and differential system. Ensure you have the correct Hyper 10SC 2.0 model before ordering.
- What is the advantage of aluminium hubs over the standard plastic hubs? — Aluminium hubs offer several key advantages: they are significantly more durable and resistant to impact damage, they provide superior precision with less flex in the suspension mounting points, they maintain consistent wheel alignment under stress, and they reduce play in the suspension geometry which improves handling response and reduces tyre wear. For competitive racing or aggressive bashing, the performance improvement is very noticeable.
- Are these hubs suitable for beginners? — These hubs are an intermediate to advanced upgrade rather than a beginner component. Beginners should first master driving the Hyper 10SC 2.0 with standard components before investing in performance upgrades. However, the installation process is straightforward and requires only basic mechanical tools, so experienced beginners who are comfortable working on RC vehicles can certainly install these hubs without difficulty.
- How do these hubs compare to the optional front wheel hex hubs HOP1-0075? — The HOP1-0079 rear hubs are specifically engineered for the rear suspension geometry of the Hyper 10SC 2.0, whilst the HOP1-0075 are front-specific alternatives. Both serve the same purpose of replacing plastic hubs with CNC-machined aluminium, but they are designed for their respective suspension layouts. For maximum benefit and consistency, you can upgrade both front and rear using HOP1-0075 and HOP1-0079 together.
- Will upgrading to these hubs improve my lap times? — Yes, upgrading to aluminium hubs can deliver measurable improvements in competitive lap times by improving suspension response consistency, reducing flex-induced handling changes, and maintaining more precise wheel alignment throughout aggressive cornering and jumps. The improvement is especially noticeable on technical tracks where suspension geometry precision is critical.
- What other upgrades work well with these rear hubs? — These rear hubs integrate perfectly with other HOBAO Hyper 10SC 2.0 performance upgrades including the carbon fibre shock towers (HOP1-0070 rear tower), aluminium steering block set (HOP1-0077), alternative spring rates (HOP1-0073 and HOP1-0074), and carbon fibre arm inserts (HOP1-0068 and HOP1-0069). A comprehensive upgrade programme combining these components will deliver the most significant performance transformation.
