OFNA Hyper 7 RTR - PCR Edition

[GilBeQuick]

Ok, I thought I was set on the Violator, but with all the talk about how the Hyper 7 is the way to go with OFNA, I'm seriously considering the Hyper 7 PCR Edition. It's a great price at what seems to be a great buggy with lots of features.

What do you all think about this buggy? What's do you all like and dislike about it?

I forgot, here's a link: http://www.ofna.com/hyper7-pcr.html

I think that is a pretty sick ass buggy. PCR hop-ups seem to be of great quality and the sure do look pretty too. HoBao makes that rig and it is a race bread animal. That would be model of buggy from Ofna that I would own if I did oown one

[GilBeQuick]

Thanks for the input! I've found it as low as $440 (http://www.acehardwarehobbies.com/2....oducts_id=5526), and for that price it just seems like a steal. Anyone seen it for a better price?

Also, anyone else have any feedback for this buggy?

Dag yo! That is a damn good deal.

That is a sweet buggy.... Hmmmm

[GilBeQuick]

It does seem pretty sweet....and for the price it just seems damn hard to beat. Laydown servos, 8 port, front and rear chassis braces, pivotball suspension... I've seen a couple of sites selling it for well over $500...and they've got it for $440....

So this PCR Edition RTR comes with a radio, starterbox & mill? They dont specify what radio it comes with though... I want to build one myself, but the damn kit versions of these buggies are so damn expensive.... I want that JR XS3 radio & a nice beefy kit.
Damn decisions....

[Jeff Cain]

If it comes with the run of the mill cheapo radio, ebay it for $40 and buy a rx pack with the green.

looks like a good car, the only worry i would have is that laydown throttle linkage, one good wack and the arm stickingout could get broke and away your buggy goes

[GilBeQuick]

It's a base radio, that's made for OFNA by Futaba. It's probably decent in quality, but just cheap in general if ya know what I man. But seriously, what RTR does come with a decent radio? (excluding Losi) For the most part they're there only to get the job done and no extra frills!

Well the Storm RTR that I just bought came with a JR XR3i FM radio. That's pretty decent. The RTR Swift also comes with an Airtronics FM radio as well. So, they are out there.

Hey now, quit crapping on my point. JK HAHAHA!! You know what I mean though.

That's a sweet buggy. That head is huge! In your opinion, other than the engine or tires, what are the best hop-ups that you've done that you'd reccomend before the others?
