HobbyPlus Speck B 1:24 2WD Buggy

Speck-B — Small Scale, Big Attitude

For more than seven years, Hobby Plus has been a trusted name among RC enthusiasts. But our story began over fifteen years ago — fueled by an obsession with racing and a relentless drive to make RC performance accessible to everyone.

That same passion has shaped everything we build. From the legendary 1/24 and 1/18 rock crawlers to our latest creation, we’ve never stopped innovating. And now, we’re bringing the thrill of racing back home with something bold, fast, and fun.

Meet the Speck-B — 1/24 2WD RTR Buggy

Compact, powerful, and packed with attitude, the Speck-B is built to race, bash, and dominate. Staying true to the Hobby Plus legacy of value and versatility, this ready-to-run buggy delivers everything you need for serious fun straight out of the box.

Performance-Driven Features

• Top Speed: Up to 16 mph right out of the box.
• Powertrain: Hybrid metal/plastic gearbox with sealed 3-gear differential.
• Drivetrain: Full ball-bearing system with 0.5 mod pitch gears for smooth power delivery.
• Suspension: Long-travel shocks, oil-filled and fully adjustable.
• Battery Bay: Versatile compartment compatible with common plug types for easy aftermarket upgrades.
• Design: Crash-resilient chassis for durability and worry-free bashing.

(*) Warning: To reduce the risk of the motor overheating or possibly catching fire during extended use, we suggest switching to an 11T motor gear. This setup offers better safety while keeping the speed steady, compared to the stock 45/12T gear ratio.

Built for Upgrades

The Speck-B adapts to your style:

• The included ESC/receiver combo quickly converts to receiver-only mode, letting you upgrade to a brushless setup without replacing your radio system.
• A versatile motor-mount design supports everything from the stock 030 brushed motor to an 050 brushed or 1626 brushless motor — the choice is yours.

Tune It. Race It. Own It.

Fine-tune your buggy for any track or terrain:

• Adjustable roll centers and weight bias with optional chassis weights.
• Relocatable ESC position for perfect balance.
• Sealed gear differential for consistent handling.
• Clipless body system for fast, tool-free battery swaps.
• Industry-standard 7 mm hex / 25 mm wheel fitment for limitless customization.

We’ve thought through every detail — so all you need to do is charge, drive, tune, and repeat.
