This is the Hyper 8.5x RTR 1/8 Competition Buggy kit from HoBao. To stay at the very top of racing requires constant development,
testing and new ideas. Since its release the Hyper 8 has continually
been the focus of the HoBao designers to further enhance and improve
what was already a winning design. After all, a car, team, driver is
only as good as his last win.
The release of the new Hyper 8.5 Pro brings together the
ultimate and most up-to-date racing package consisting of new design
features as well as additional optional set-up accessories all inside
the box. This is your one-stop buggy to instant success.
What's different as you may feel it looks the same. Well
this version has the optional FR2 chassis which is standard with an
additional 2mm extra length at both the front and rear for improved
handling, jumping and general driveabilty. Larger, big bore shocks
result in more constant and less oil changes during hard long finals.

suspension arm holders, servo horn, engine/chassis brace, lightweight
wheel hubs and wheel dust proof nuts.
