whitey392 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hi as titled. I'm returning to the hobby after a while away. I'm after a nitro truggy and am torn between the Hobao hyper sst, the hobao hyper st Pro, or the hpi bullet 3.0 truggy. Any input or opinions would be much appreciated.

locky Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hyper ST Pro will be the more robust of them, due to having some stronger CNC parts and with spares being more readily available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitey392 Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 How do they go compared to the other 2? Just wanting something quick enough to keep me interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locky Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Quick depends on the nitro engine and gearing, a 28 size engine is best but you can go larger but I see no significant real benefits in a truggy. A cheap decent basher engine is a SH28 P3. Used to get them for about £70 from ebay overseas but now Brexit will have increased prices. Nitro requires a bit of patience. Never found the stock 28 Mac star engine in Hypers that fast, only my view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Of the 3 ...I'd buy the one that isn;t the HPI Bullet. It was never a good design when it was new, and as it hasn't been improved...well...it's still not very good. I remember when it was new HPI doing an article on how to put bits of fuel tube in the drive cups to stop the driveshafts falling out. I had an ST Pro and it was tough as old boots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazkopat Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I've had a Hyper St Pro truggy, a good bomb proof truggy it is but its on the heavier side and the rear use to always squat on a 21 and 28 engine I had in it all that time . If I had a Hyper St Pro now I would of probably convert it to a brushless electric system and simply get another truggy or buggy out there. I've recently been hooked on to Kyoshos' I just love the quality which goes into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
