Hi all, am new to this, have got a nitro truggy but not sure if it will be any good. Really want a buggy but not got much to buy one with but dont mind running with real old gear and keeping it going. Can anyone help?
anything by HoBao, maybe something like the Hyper 7 TQ Sport RTR. I believe Steve at Access Models hase some in stock.
Nice and cheap to start with and easy to get spares for.
You can almost be certain to get a spare trackside as well. The only major thing to change out of the box is the servos. I think most would agree with me?
I think there is another thread started by Pfleety about the HPI? Probably a very good car but it often pays to get a car the same as everybody else when you start out. It makes things easy when tuning and borrowing spares!!
I went Hobao Hyper 7 for that reason - and it's proved it's worth, minimal damage and breakages, keeps up with other more 'exotic' stuff on the straights, would probably do corners better if it had a better driver.
Run your truggy for a while to get your hand / eye coordination in, they can usually accept a bit more abuse round the track than a buggy, then change when you've had time to check out all the other choices.
