Ofna Hyper 7 RTR or GS Storm PLEASE HELP

[rcracer4723]

Which of these 1/8 scale buggies would you recommend. I am new to the 1/8 scale world and would like some info. THe hyper 7 has the 8 port engine, and a am radio where the storm has the fm radio. If I wanted to get into novice racing which one of these two cars would you recommend to start out. I currently have a RC10GT and a T-Maxx and want an 1/8 scale buggy.

thanks,
Josh

Welcome to the forum Josh! I have an rc10gt and tmaxx too, buggies kill em all. Either of those is a great choice. I think everyone should have a good radio, like a JR XS3, then you can also look for buggies like the XTM that come with engine but no radio.

Right, but if I wanted to start racing out of the ofna or the GS Storm which would you recommend? How think is the chassis of the GS Storm? I am looking to spen around 400-450 with a fm radio.

or would you go with a swift?

The storm is a very good buggy.I say get the storm!

I dont know what all the different ofna models are, but I think the Hyper 7 is made by Ho Bao, and is better than most ofnas. Really either one is a good choice, so go with the best price and which one your lhs has the most parts for.

on another thread here in buggies is some advice on the hyper 7 from studysession:

I have a Hyper 7 PBS. Love the thing. Fast, durable handles great.
