OFNA Hyper 9

[SUPERFORMIAN]

Strangest cooling head I've ever seen.

[fred42771]

hey. Did any of you guys, change the Servo on a Hyper 8.

[wiggygfe]

@fred42771 yes

[fred42771]

@wiggygfe To what? - do you have a name for the servo? :)

[wiggygfe]

@fred42771 i changed the steering servo to a Power HD DS090M and the throttle/brake to a Power HD 1501MG... any standard size servo should fit

[drib2005]

Were can you buy the step design engine

[Johnbuckley1983]

You can't beat the noise you get from a nitro engine I love it

[grabmygoobers]

@Johnbuckley1983 and the smell of them burning that fuel.  Even when the nitro gets in my lungs and I start coughing as it burns greatly. I do like the ease of use of electric but I will alway be a nitro addict

[doctorwhonico]

Nice engineered but I'm switching to to the Hyper 9 brushless. I just sold my Hyper 8.5 pro. I'm tired of the cost of nitro buggies. It's so expensive !. Brushless, same chassis, cheaper, faster and the same fun !!

[Lillie1986]

Huh? Electric cheaper? In what universe?

[doctorwhonico]

Hyper 8.5 pro and accessoires : 1700 euro

Cost in a month fuel, tires spare parts : + 300 euro in my case

Every 4 month an other engine : 170 euro

I live in Belgium and nitro racing is the most expensive model hobby !!!

[Lillie1986]

Then you really have to suck at driving if you spend that much money on spares.

I promise you it wont be less expensive going brushless. One lipo pack is close to 100 bucks, a motor is almost as much as a nitro engine, plus ESP

[doctorwhonico]

I had a lot of problems with " a lost car ". No control anymore...

[Lillie1986]

Well you cant really blame nitro for that.

[headlesschicken123]

no offence but i think tht u might have to tune engines alittle better if ur only getting 4 months per motor unless of course u pro race them. i get my motors to last at least a year

[Lillie1986]

Dunno about that, batteries wont last forever, and lipo packs for 1:8 buggies are 100 bucks a piece.

[headlesschicken123]

true but it really depends how crazy u go with ur hobby u know

[Lillie1986]

Well that goes both ways

[headlesschicken123]

i think he means the cost of the fuel and glow plugs. electric is just expensive in the beginning more a less like batts and motors

[nlikos2007]

Electric is not bad but nitro is faster!

[Lillie1986]

@nlikos2007 Well is it really?

[caseyzdenek]

wrong wrong wrong.... have you ever heard of brushless

[nlikos2007]

@caseyzdenek yes i heard it. It very fast. My friend have it!

[alexisdabest1]

@nlikos2007 its actually the other way around, electeric is faster

[waydlemx]

@alexisdabest1 electric aint faster when its charging

[RathaSlayer]

@waydlemx Nitro wins again, lol

[Randomshit1353]

@waydlemx thats why you have extra batteries, electric wins again

[fieniet]

when i want to buy it, does it come in rtr or a kit and has the package also a radio system? How many does it costs? thnx plz reply :p

[DaMonsterMonster]

its around $450-$550...

[DaMonsterMonster]

its a kit so you build part of it and i think you have to buy your own radio...

[rockstarmillsy034]

i thort the hyper 9 come premade i seen a photo of in the box and it was built ?

[DaMonsterMonster]

they come pretty built...

[millzy4eva]

that thing is killa

[insecure53]

I'm $150 away from having enough to buy the Hyper 9, but if I continue to save my money I can buy a Baja 5B. I just can't decide!

[99876654]

get a hyper 9

[insecure53]

How is does it handle compared to other buggies?

[99876654]

Apparently it's very good, and I would believe that. One of my friends has a hyper 9, and it handles pretty good. If you buy a Baja 5B, you may not be able to run it due to noise restrictions or whatever.

I would pick the Hyper over the Baja, in my opinion.

[insecure53]

I like the Hyper 9, but I don't like the idea of paying $400 for an unassembled kit. I might just end up buying an electric heli.

[99876654]

Half of the fun in RC is building the kit up

plus, you will know what is broken at a glance (if something breaks at all) and you will know the structure of your car like the back of your hand, which will help you save time and money

[stevensons]

LOL $400 cheap. And I like assembling my kits. You would be surprised how many mistakes are made at the manufactures. I am a Losi 8ight fan and dislike the fact they come in race rollers. I wish they were a kit so I can assemble it myself. I basically dismounted the whole 8ight when I first got it. That way you can pick your own shock fluids, diff fluids, and setup without having to dismount the car first.

[Unknown17177]

i say Baja 5B

[Xen5s]

Get a 5b so much better. easier to tune more durable and runs on gas so say bye to 40 dollar nitro gallons.

[insecure53]

That's true, I buy nitro for $15 a quart. I'm already putting money aside for the baja, I just need $600 more.

[ieatcrete111]

this is pretty cool but the only thing is the chassis and the skid plates are the same part so if u snap a skid plate you have to go thru all the pain of taking the engine and the differential and the reciever and servo and all that crap out.. it would much easier if the chassis and the skid plates are seperate

[nlikos2007]

Looks cool. I will buy that. I sell my hyper 7 soon.

[jakeyboiyiy]

as soon as i can i am resurving mine!!!

[mugenracer123654]

got one on reserved

[traxxasrockhead]

i want one

[aisaacx]

Please make a truggy for me :)

[LP30STM]

[aisaacx]

[III6victor6III]
