About the Venture18 Flux 1985 Toyota Hilux SR5
Authentic Design
The officially licensed 1985 Toyota Hilux SR5 body brings exceptional realism to the Venture18 Flux. Its clipless polycarbonate shell, clear windows, and molded scale details—including Toyota emblems, mirrors, wipers, door handles, and tube-style bumpers—make it a true miniature replica. The adjustable rock rails and Rockthorn 1.2-inch off-road tires mounted on CS-10 beadlock wheels provide both rugged function and visual authenticity. Whether climbing over rocks or cruising the trail, the sticky rubber tires and sleek wheels ensure grip and performance that match the Venture18's powerful capabilities.
Advanced Brushless Electronics
At the heart of the Venture18 Flux is the FLX18-3S20-T Brushless ESC, designed for maximum versatility and control. This water-resistant controller offers instant switching between crawling mode—with full drag brake for steep, technical terrain—and trail mode for smooth, flowing throttle response. Paired with the FLX18-1621 3500kV 12-pole brushless outrunner motor, the Venture18 delivers precise torque and effortless speed when needed. The SD-02MGWR metal-geared steering servo ensures reliable, high-torque steering, while the TF-706 2.4GHz 6-channel radio system gives you full command over every function.
LED Lighting & Scale Detailing
The Venture18 Flux enhances its scale realism with a complete LED lighting system controlled by the independant RL-700 LED Light Controller. Working headlights, brake lights, and turn signals adapt to your driving input, while selectable light modes allow you to illuminate any trail from day to night. The detailed SR5 body features rollbars with removable lights and light buckets ready for customization, letting you add even more realism and illumination. Combined with the clipless mounting system, adjustable rock sliders, and durable scale accessories, every adventure looks as good as it performs.

Best money ever spent! Worth every dollar. I’ve had mine for two years and enjoyed every minute. Fms scx24 is also a great durable truck I’ve had for years with zero problems
First Rc crawler. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend!!
I was looking for a nice little crawler that might be able to go fast some and picked up one of these. it comes with a 11.1v 3s lipo and that wasnt in the description and this truck is really quick for what is suposed to be a crawler. the 2 speed does need to be trimmed out of the box the instructions are in the box, the lighting is selectable with a button on the controler, the drag brake is also on a switch. Its got enough power to drift indoors, and its pretty capable off road, im crawling with others using an axial 24, a fcx24, and a trx4m and this thing is as good on the rocks and blows them away in a drag race not that it matters, its fun and parts are available.
Three reviews, all rating the HPI Venture18 Flux 1985 Toyota Hilux SR5 five out of five. Reviewers describe it as fun and easy to get running, with one noting it is a first RC crawler. One reviewer reports two years of ownership without problems. Another says it performs well on rocks, is quick for a crawler, handles light indoor drifting, and that spare parts are available. One reviewer notes the two-speed transmission needs trimming out of the box, and that the included battery and charger were not clearly listed in the description. Reviews are brief and only three in number, so the picture is limited.
