You going to be using it for bashing, racing or both?

 

[Nitroaddict]

if just bashing, then the MBX Pro would be just fine. Stay away from the LX though. If you can save a bit more money, the Hyper 7 Ofna RTR's are alot better than the MBX and the packages start at about 450.00

 

[slothy]

ya try for the hyper 7 or hyper 7 pbs - a few more bucks, but better parts.

 

[drkman07]

a little of both i guess. maybe i can get the mbx and then since my b-day is in march i can buy a hyper 7 engine. But i am getting $400 soon plus all my x-mas money so idk. but i also wtb an onroad car. so all help will be appreciated.:buggy1:

WOW, WOW WOW, Come on, Nobody thinks the Kyosho MPX7.5 RTR is "Da-One"? Check it out at SoutheastRC.com. Best price so far that I've seen.

Dont get the mp7.5 RTR.That is the worst rtr you can buy.The Ofna PCRis a good buggy.I have herd nothing but good reviews on it.

 

[FRIDGE]

get the Ofna Violator it supposed ot be really durable

 

[golfinglenn]

Go for the Hyper 7 PCR at Ultimatehobbies for $440 shipped. It is in your budget and is RTR. The only thing you might have to do in the future is a steering servo for $40.

This buggy is awesome and built right. Best bang for the buck out there.

wow this is so confusing lol

i would say the XTM X-Terminator, at www.hobbypeople.net

i have it, it's the deluxe, and i love it, you can get the regular, for 350 or the deluxe, with almost all the hop-ups they make for it, for 450. if you do get this, make sure when you get it, if you want, disassemble it, loc-tite everything, and put it back together, screws somehow find a way of dissappearing from mine when i first ran it.

good luck. i would also look for a 1.5v brick battery, (search about glow plug ignitors) and the connectors. i have one, and it's wicked.

again, good luck with the decisions.

 

[drkman07]

okay i think i want an OFNA Hyper 7 PCR RTR. But everywhere i look there expensive. If anyone can please give me a link to a place to buy the pcr that would be very helpful.

I think the cheapest place you will find is www.ultimatehobbies.com. Right now they have them listed for $479 with free shipping, but somebody reported that there price was listed wrong and they are actually only $439 with free shipping. That was the price when I got mine.

[drkman07]

i heard that they are not a good place to buy from some people said that they never got their r/cs

They shipped mine the next day and never had a problem.

OK, why is the Ultra LX Pro one to stay away from?
