Twotone Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Hey all I started off in this hobby with a hyper 7 around 16 years ago and I’d love another buggy, so I’m looking at pulling the trigger on the VSe rtr 100amp. What are the spares availability like? And is there plenty of upgrades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Normal times theres usually plenty of spares for the Hobao's dont really know about upgrades tho as not looked into that aspect as such only thing ive upgraded is orange springs for shocks,carbon inserts for the arms and a higher torque waterproof servo and running badlands wheels tyres on mine My son and I both have the VSe 100A and not broke anything on them yet and we really like them they remind us of our Hyper 7's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twotone Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 That's great to know, thank you 👍 I had so many good times with my hyper 7 so it's definitely time to get another buggy, and the VSe looks like the one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

locky Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Shock towers can bend depending on your bashing style. The VS has cnc 7075 alternatives. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll definitely be looking at some cnc parts. I don’t bash as hard as I used to, I still remember hammering flat my hyper 7 chassis 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
