HYPER GO H16BM 1/16 Brushless RC Truck, 3S Battery Combo

About this RC car

Three cells put roughly half again the voltage through the same 2845 motor, and the difference is felt in how quickly the truck leaves a corner rather than in a headline number. We ship it with the pack and the matching charge lead in the box, which saves the usual mistake of buying a 3S pack and discovering the two cell cable will not balance it. If you already run our 2S car, this is the same spares list — nothing in the drivetrain changes.

Where it sits in the HYPER GO RC car range

The H16BM is part of our Brushless RC Cars shelf, which carries 5 vehicles for the MJX HYPER GO range. Model code H16BM is the number every listing here is keyed to: quote it and the gears, shocks, wheels and bodies that suit this chassis all line up. The vehicle itself is a ready to run 4WD truck on LiPo power, so nothing on this page needs soldering or building.

Fit and compatibility

This car is listed against the chassis named in its title. Those codes are stamped on the chassis plate under the body; photographs are a poor guide at this scale, because neighbouring versions differ by a couple of millimetres and look identical. If the plate on your car is unreadable, send us a picture with the shell off and we will tell you which version you have.

Living with it

Run the first two packs on 2S before you reach for three cells. A HYPER GO RC car is quick enough on two to teach you where the limits are, and the parts you have not broken yet are the ones you keep.

Questions about the H16BM

Does the H16BM come ready to run?

Yes. It leaves us built and painted with the motor, speed control, steering servo and receiver fitted, the transmitter already bound and a charger in the tray.

What battery does it take?

A 2S pack as standard. The 45A speed control also detects a 3S pack and sets its own low voltage cutoff, so the maximum speed on the box is a cable and a battery away.

Is it waterproof?

The electronics are sealed against wet grass, puddles and light snow. That is a protective rating rather than permission to submerge the vehicle.
