HUDY Star-Box On-Road 1/10 & 1/8 104400

The HUDY Star-Box On-Road 1/10 & 1/8 (Part #104400) is a professional starter box made for nitro-powered 1/10 and 1/8 scale on-road RC cars. It’s used to start nitro engines without a pull start — you put your car’s drive wheels onto the starter wheel and the box spins the engine for you.

This Star-Box stands out because of its extra-low, ultra-compact, and lightweight design (about 575 g without batteries), making it easy to carry and use in the pits. It comes fully assembled and ready to use.

Inside, a powerful 775-type motor with a fan drives a durable belt system, and the housing is CNC-machined aluminum with a black coating for strength. You power it with two standard 7.2 V battery stick packs (not included).

Other thoughtful features include adjustable backstops to fit different chassis sizes, an integrated on/off switch, and a quick-change starter wheel system that lets you swap wheels easily.

In short: It’s a compact, high-quality starter box built for ease of use and consistent starts with 1/10 & 1/8 nitro on-road RC cars.
