HoBao is also known as Ofna. Great company in my opinion.

I <3 my Hyper 8














And before I had that I had a Hyper 7 PCR and it served it's purpose well!





http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v2...t=000_0148.flv

Both of them are durable as heck too!

I've put them both through hell at the track and nothing came up broken, just a few missing screws due to user error[:@] Meanwhile there were at least one or two Kyoshos and Mugens ending their days with broken A-arms and snapped wing mounts etc.

Also Ofna is the US distributor for HoBao so check out www.ofna.com

Hi,

Honestly, my personal opinion, materials used are high end competition standard with unbeatable price. The look of each part, same as HN and Nanda, need improvements. The assembly won't look as sleek (just my idea) as an MBX-5 or XB8 or MP777 but nothing less in performance. There were 2 Hyper 8's in the 2006 world's A main finals.

OFNA is the US distributor of Taiwanese HOBAO and HONG NOR r/c cars.

Thx

Joaquim
