why not using
ModelClass::query()->select
?
if you want to use the hydrate function you can use it like
ModelClass::hydrate($results->toArray())

Query builder to collection of models.
I had just made some changes to my database and now the relationships are more complicated.
This means that to get $user->reports I am now using the query builder to retrieve the reports which were previously just a many-to-many:
$results = DB::table('users AS u')
->select('r.*')
etc
This means that I am now getting a collection of stdClass instead of a collection of models. Is there a way to use a query to get a collection of models (in one db hit).
I tried using hydrate but it requires an array.
Cheers,

Yeah, as soon as I had a coffee I got it:
$modelCollection = Report::hydrate($results->all()) ;

Not sure if I should make these function or accessors?
