HUDY 104400 Start-Box Compact Starter for 1/10 and 1/8 On-Road  [HSP-104400]

Track-ready HUDY 104400 Start-Box with Compact Profile

The HUDY 104400 Start-Box is built for 1/10 and 1/8 scale nitro on-road RC cars, combining a compact footprint with reliable starting torque. Its lightweight construction makes it easy to move between the pits and the grid without sacrificing performance.

Chassis Fit and Low Profile

Featuring an ultra-low profile, this starter box weighs 575g without batteries, keeping pack weight to a minimum. Adjustable backstops accept both 1/10 and 1/8 chassis, while the support bracket design keeps firm contact with the starting wheel for efficient engine engagement.

Robust Build and Motor Setup

The body is CNC-machined from aluminum and finished in a durable black coating to resist wear. Power comes from a 775-type motor paired with a long-life belt drive, fed by two 7.2V battery stick packs (batteries not included), providing steady starts lap after lap.

Serviceability and Controls

The unit arrives fully assembled and includes an integrated on/off switch for simple operation. A heavy-gauge wiring harness with quick-change connectors removes the need for soldering, and the quick-change starter wheel system allows wheel swaps using just three screws.

For hobbyists needing a compact, dependable starter for 1/10 and 1/8 nitro on-road cars, the HUDY 104400 Start-Box balances portability with the power required for competitive use.
