Status: offline 		annie you can throw it around, be aggressive with it. and still it has a lot of steering. could just be my
setup but its very similiar to my hyper 8 handling wise. i think the st has a little more steering in the
high speed sections of the track over the 8. but again it has a lot to do with setup. havent driven the
losi t so i cant really compare them.

Status: offline 		i've driven both the hyper and the losi, given the both are the RTR versions, not the roller and pro, but really there isn't much in it, both were using stock setup except 37.5 WT oil in the rear of my 8ight and some toe adjustments in the front, the hyper is a bit easier to drive with the stock setup, the 8ight it very over steer oriented, likes to swing the rear end out both under brakes and power, but if you can get used to power sliding it the losi is fast, the hyper is easier to drive fast then the losi though.

Status: offline 		I got my St Pro RTR about 3 weeks ago. Comnes with the new Hyper 28 Turbo engine @ 2.7 hp.
What a beauty. Goes a lot better than the old mach 28.

I don't like that style of driving. I like electric off-road style the best. Throwing a race car around the track makes it feel unstable in my eyes.

Status: offline 		Im looking at buying the Hyper ST pro RTR mabye next year somtime, but i dont know exactly when. wefishtoo how is the stock engine on the RTR?? is it easy to tune and relaible?
Also how is the ST pro bashing wise? i wouldnt mind getting into racing but i do love to bash, so how well does it hold up to stacks (small to big crashes) does it break often? and how does it handle in the air?

Status: offline 		I don't find the stock engine a problem at all. It is the new HYPER 28 TURBO which is different to the Macstar 28. It was a real sh@# to get started being very tight but after 2 tanks of 20% it was easier. Changed the pullstart for a tiger drive , changed the shock oil for 100wt rear and 80 wt front and that is all at this stage. The shock oil made a lot of difference in the handling . Comes with the basic Hobao radio gear. The standard 9kg steering servo is very quick. If it doesn't give me grief, i won't change anything. I do however have a new STS 30 sitting around in case

The cost here in OZ is $AUD820 delivered. A bit costly for you guys in the states with your $ the way it is.

hello lads..ive got a new hyper st pro and its huge.bigger than i thought.
im running a sts.d30m.3000/10000/7000.
drilled piston holes to 1.4 with 45 weight ..just done a radio box conversion and its easy..the hyper 8.5 box fits nice..



radio box



That thing looks bad ass!!! I have just read the new review of this truggy today in the mags and after debating on getting a kyosho st-r kit, st1 kit, or the high dollar st-rr kit I am sold on the hyper pro!! Especially at amain for 469! I read in RC driver that it comes 80% assembled and the new RC Car Action just said it comes as a complete kit. which one is it? I am in the mood to BUILD and want a full kit!! I will probably be ordering it tomorrow hopefully.
