Got the Hobao a few years ago, It was my first 1/8 scale. Put in a HW Max8 combo and she is a beast. Let sit for over a year cause I have bought other cars. I just took out the other day and remembered why I love this car and have not sold it yet.
NICE! You do the cleaning exactly right 😍 Never water on the chassis, it kills just all the bearings. Nice that you had such a nice time just with the rig. 😘
Hey Kim, I enjoy cleaning them. I'm in the backyard doing it at my own pace. Once I'm done that's when I grab a beer or a Caesar (sometimes both) and edit the video. It's 8:49 and I've been outside all day. Started running the truck, making the video, and then enjoying the outdoors with the kids. I am going to sleep like a baby tonight :) LOL.
I've had my Hyper 7 nitro for over 15 years, converted it to electric about 3 years ago with cheap trackstar 2400kv motor and 150a xcar esc, it nearly does backflips with my 4s hv 3450batt it's just crazy I love it. Hobao make quality rc cars
On the steering. Buy op-0019 and put in the long one. I use the SSTe on a track for racing. Had huge steering improvement when i upgraded to the long Ackermann rod.
Hey thank you. I'm actually on Hobao's site right now looking at a few parts I want to pick up for it. I've added the ackerman set. I am going to buy the alloy C-Hub set. Do you know know which set I should go for? 19 or 20 Deg?
Great vid mate! This is an overlooked RC and one of the best out there! I got the roller kit I've had mine for about 3 years, I've jumped it, nailed it off-road now it's my 125mph speed run car and the only thing that's ever broke was the rear wing. That broke on the first bash so I got an arrma talion wing and never ever had a problem with it since. The diffs are so beefy and none of the drive train wears or nothing they're proper solid rigs! Love mine so much 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 4s is the sweet spot too! I bashed mine on 6s at first but it was too much. Nice! Can't wait to see more vids of this car my mate 👍🏻
@@JasonPerrinRCVlogs I used the stock 6s blx and 2050kv from a kraton in mine and it was perfect on 4s! Never got hot plenty power. I think I went up a couple teeth on the pinion but that was all. Set of proline badlands it was a beast! And fast!
Really jumping 101 with a 8th scale beast! That's a insult to all truggies! You have a lot more subs if you didn't drive like Ms. daisy! Lol ! Beautiful truck!
Great look at this truck this a great vide. I’ve got some of those Bakflip LP tires they seem great on any truggy. I’m really considering buying one of these Hobao hypers now, they are a such a good bargain it seems. Great pricing and parts upport on their website seem really good. I was thinking of selling my ET48 2.0 Tekno. It’s a great truck but some parts for replacement can be expensive. I can’t decide lol!, 🤯🤔😂
@@JasonPerrinRCVlogs might just stick with the Tekno now that I’m set up and have it. You would the truggy it drives very well. I’ve got the M2C basher chassis on mine
Great to see the Hyper out! It does handle nice man 🤩 You can still get backflips if you gear up a couple teeth and really go for it 🚀 I know what you mean about 4s, I have a couple trucks that I keep to 4s only. Your RC's are too clean, do you even run them 😆😜 People are ridiculous!
4s is definitely all you need for this car. Good move getting the aluminum chassis braces. The only really annoying thing is the plastic hinge pin holders. Aluminum ones are available from hobao for the vse, but not the sst for whatever reason. I find the best tires for this car are the regular truggy track tires, Proline Holeshots, AKA Gridirons, (etc). Step up to a 16 tooth pinion, get some motor fans, keep it on 4s, and you’re good.
On the rear body pin issue. Just drill holes 90 degres to the original holes. Did it with my sst. Holds up great.

@@JasonPerrinRCVlogs not sure. Which part number is it?

Hey im interested in this on my sste as well. How does your truggy do on the track? Is it competitive against race kits??
Beautiful truggy. Looks like plenty of power on 4s👍👊

Nice. I am looking at dropping a 2350kv in it. Just trying to get a little more speed while keeping it on 4s.

That truggy seems nicely balanced.
Nice spot buddy
😍😍😍
Strong rc car 😍😍
I love the look of this bro

cool bashing and cleaning

I’ve never owned a Tekno. But I’ve heard they are beasts. Hobao parts aren’t the cheapest either.

I have one brand new in the box. I ran it one time and I broke a cup. I cannot find parts anywhere.
hobao hyper or arrma kraton v5, which one do you recommend?
Thank you and good video 👍
What is the ESC brand?
Did that backflip LP tires hold up?
They have. No issues with them at all.

That they are.
I’m thinking of running the 2350 in it. Seeing how that performs.

That is exactly where I’m headed. I’ve already done the 16t pinion and I did pick up the 7075 lightened chassis for it. Frigging love this beast.
@@Jaguar-s7f they have them for the VSE, not the sste.
I think that this car is already provided with aluminium holders as described on the manual .. no?
Ive actually thought about getting one of these, look awesome and are apparently super tough
You should! Way better than a kraton imo and I have both 🤘🏻🤘🏻
@@ksrnate i know hobao is suppose to be an awesome brand since they use to be mugen also
Ofna.
@@JasonPerrinRCVlogs thats what i was remembered, my dad was thinking mugen too
How would you rate the quality compared to the kraton 6s v5 or exb in reliability
wort in 2030❤
nice set up.
Can you give the link of wheels?
They are Arrma 4s outcast tires.
I think castle makes a 4268 2650kv
I’m still bitter about the Hoss lol
LOL. You and I both. :/
