Start with the confirmed hardware

A 1:18 HOSPEED HS18301 brushed 4WD monster truck rated at 36 km/h with proportional control, independent shocks, all-terrain tyres, and 1200mAh battery. This page separates verified supplier measurements from general operating guidance. A specification appears only when BuyRC publishes it consistently; missing or conflicting values are not estimated.

Who this model is for

This truck suits new RC drivers who want adjustable speed control and a smaller off-road model. BuyRC does not state a recommended age, so adult supervision remains appropriate. Select a route with clear boundaries, enough stopping room, and a surface that matches the confirmed use case: suitable off-road surfaces.

Specification check: [VERIFY: a specification line says item 18302 although the page title, model, and SKU identify HS18301; listing remains under verified model HS18301.]

Features and highlights

RC380 brushed motor

The motor supports the supplier-published 36 km/h speed. This explains the published component or capability without extending it into an unsupported claim.

Adjustable speed control

The transmitter supports speed adjustment while learning. This explains the published component or capability without extending it into an unsupported claim.

Independent shocks

Separate dampers support off-road stability. This explains the published component or capability without extending it into an unsupported claim.

Planetary differential

A differential supports balanced wheel movement in turns. This explains the published component or capability without extending it into an unsupported claim.

What is in the box

HOSPEED HS18301 truck, transmitter, charging adapter, 7.4V 1200mAh battery. Only supplier-confirmed package contents are listed. Remote batteries, optional upgrade batteries, spares, or tools should not be assumed unless named here.

Before the first run

Read the supplied manual and identify the steering, throttle, trim, and power controls while the model is stationary. Check that the wheels rotate freely, tyres are seated, body fittings are secure, and the controller responds in the expected direction. Begin with gentle input before increasing pace.

If a speed, runtime, range, charging time, dimension, or component rating is missing from the table, the supplier did not provide a reliable value. BuyRC intentionally leaves such fields blank rather than substituting a typical figure from a similar model.

Care and safety

Use on a clear off-road route away from roads and water. Supervise charging, allow the brushed motor to cool, and inspect the PVC shell, independent shocks, and tyres after impacts. Switch off the vehicle before touching moving components. Stop using a battery that is swollen, punctured, unusually hot, or damaged. Store the model, transmitter, charging equipment, and loose parts in a dry place.

How are future price changes handled?
The BuyRC offer is retained for scheduled checks. If another matched supplier becomes cheaper and is in stock, BuyRC can switch the source on the same canonical product instead of inserting a second row.
