What Buggy???

[Ferg]

I've looked into whats available and the 1/8th buggies seem to fit what I want out of a RC car the most. Anyone on here got one? Where would be a good place to start?

All depends on your budget mate, and what are you after out of a buggy?

I wanted it to fill a couple of requirements.

I would like something big enough that it apears to handle more like a real car, I feel 1/10th look less stable.

I felt Monster trucks and stuff like that are two top heavy, any vids I've down loaded of them look decidedly less manouverable than a buggy, although I do appreciate the extra ground clearance you get.

I'm not talking about going nuts and buying a Mugen as my first car but maybe the HYPER 7 SPORT would be a good way to start. £269. This buggy can cost upto 600 hundred pounds for the top line version and all the bits on the cheap one are upgradable.

The shop I went to mainly sotcked the Ho Bao Hyper 7 stuff. There are many other makes out there like CRONO, MUGEN, OFNA etc. Has anybody had any experiance with any of these..mainly looking for entry level stuff.

Any other alternatives to a buggy???

thanks
