my new cheap rc

[mk351e]

good luck with your new car, BUT, I gotta say, I too have a hyper 7, and I've beat the living piss out of it! I mean, just hundreds of flips and jumps and stuff, and all kinds of flat out ABUSE. And as far as I can recall, NOTHING has ever broke!! I love that car!!

Did yours come RTR, or did you assemble it? Or did you pick it up used? I asembled mine. oddly though, the car I had before that (and OFNA ultra lx comp), came RTR and was always broke!

The hyper buggies are much better than the other ofna products. Hobao makes the hyper line, while hong nor make the ultra/jammin stuff. I have both and really think the hyper are vastly superior. I currently have a hyper8 and a hyper st and they both seem like great vehicles.

it was bought used as a hyper7 pro. so far, I've broke 3 drive shafts, two of my lsp diffs, an aluminum knuckle (cast alu), and lots of various arms, arm holders, c-hubs, and ect..
I think the problem is my hyper's a fat cow.. if I go 1/8 buggy again, I'll get something LIGHT. that will hopefully solve at least my drivetrain breakage, and should help w/ crashes in general.. I'm still keeping my LSP, actually working on a new drive train layout for it. I'll get to use our 3d printer at work to make the mounts.. but that's a ways off.

one thing.. when I ran the tc3 last night, it had a noticeable click.. accelerating, and coasting. I brought it inside, and took off the pinion, and it doesn't make the click when I roll it on the floor.. anyone have any ideas? even though it made clicking noises, the drivetrain was still very free..
