I just picked up an OFNA hyper 7 buggy with the 3 port hyper .21 that's tired and I'm going to replace it soon, my question is what do you guy think the best engine would be? I'm not looking to race I pretty much just bash and have fun in a sand/gravel pit I want plenty of pier for hillclimbs...
I'm buying a used Traxxas bandit for my son for christmas this year... The guy who owned it did nt use it but a couple of times. ITs a model #2406. He says it runs lioke a brand new one but batteries he has only last 5-10 min. They are 7.2v and are 1500mAh. I have seen 7.4volt batteries that are...
Ok, this will be my first Nitro. Probably wont be racing for a while, but will take to the track during practice nights and running around the local park. Looking for something pretty durable, that I can easily find parts for. I have read great things about Ofna Ultra LXR for the money. I...
ECX is now in the 1/8 scale buggy market with their Revenge Type E. If their buggy is as good as their previous rigs, it'll be a great beginner/budget basher. Of course it's not as "fancy" looking as some of the higher end buggies, but for a $400 RTR 1/8 scale buggy, I think it looks good. I put...

i have hammered the crap out of my buggy and today it had enough! i went over a small grash jump over a sand pitt, landed straight into the bunker edge and snapped the front left bottom arm in 2 places.
to be honest i was expecting more damage, this eb4 is one hardcore buggy.

Warrior 1/8 Pro, VRX-1 or even maybe a 1/5 Yama.
Looking for best spec (car & parts), performance, reliability & robustness...
I know this is a loaded question but I'm looking for what would be the best for me: a buggy, truggy or monster truck. I have a Revo 3.3 and really like it but the neighbors...not so much. I want to keep the Revo a nitro because there are places that I can drive to and run it but I'd like an...
Hi,
I am new to this hobby and read up on it. I successfully managed to do everything but to have control of the car! Once I start the engine the buggy zooms of straight away and I have no control of the speed! HELP ASAP?!?!?
Thanks,

I have a 1/8 nitro truck right now and I'm not happy with it at all, it's one problem after another.

Could anyone reccomend me one?i live in Australia, I am willing to spend $400-$450 on a rtr one, id like...
Just ordered a new HPI TROPHY 3.5 BUGGY from tower hobbies. They have it on sale for just $389.97 till the end of this month. This will be my first buggy and I'm really kinda excited about my choice. I'm just planning on it being a basher anyways. I'm finally graduating up from traxxas! Woohoo:D
