Nice to see somebody giving a hyper 7 some love, above is my Hyper 7 that I've been working on for a while, a total rebuild that I actually just finished yesterday.
I just need to install my reciever and break the motor in.

Thanks man. That's a really nice looking build and yeah there's nothing like the Hyper 7 ;)
 
I just thought it would be cool to build an old H7 and make it as modern looking as possible, I've looked around at various H7 builds and have never seen one done in a way that really made you want to look at an old dog, I tried very hard to achieve that look with my Hyper 7.
I have one of the newer Hyper SS and a super sweet Hyper 8.5, my favorite buggy is my Sworkz S350 Bk1 evo, absolute thing of beauty.
But I will never forget the first buggy I ever looked at and eventually bought, a Hyper 7 PCR edition with pillow ball suspension, love at first site I tell you lol, I was a RC plane guy so I never cared much for rc cars, that's why I will always own a couple H7s no matter what occupies my hanger or garage.

Just drag and drop them from your desktop to the area where you're typing and it will insert the pic or you can click on the "insert image" button at the top of the chat box you're typing in.
 
We were just talking about the Hyper 30 engine the other day in another thread. How do you like that engine?
Absolute pig to get tuned right super sensitive to changes on the LSN i even tried a change of needle just incase. Still trying to get a better tune myself but boy does the engine rip. I do have the benefit of running a jp4 exhaust which helps over a stock pipe but I'm definitely impressed with the engines performance. Bad points though would be the carb isn't great its definitely an engine to check for air leaks before running it. I don't have any issues with the cops pullstart system myself I hear a lot of complaints about it.
 
Shes a screamer thats fo sho!
Running a lot better now hoping to get her out ripping soon just waiting on my friend to finish his break in on his force 28 engine in his Hyper 7. My other friend has finished his Hong Nor Ultra LX2 with a force 21 some fancy pants electric start thing attached too 🥱🥱 - Pics attached of both my friends buggys. I'm gonna eat them alive 🤭🤭 they have no idea how much this thing rips gonna bite harder next time its out too finally found some Answer-rc Alloy clutch shoes.

A retune of my Hyper 30 and boy does she move since this video though I have fitted the Reds quad clutch system will get a new video as soon as weather permits use lol. Had a quick race with a local lad who’s running reds 521 engine in his kyosho inferno 3 and it gave him a good spanking will hopefully see him again and get a few videos.
