Default Witch is a better buggy all around ?

I'm looking for a better buggy, so witch 1 would you pick? My choices are between the: <Ofna hyper 7> <Ofna ultra mbx with .26 motor> <-& the Ofna hyper 9>

I don't know about the MBX but the Hyper 7 was a great buggy. It's3 generations old right now and you should be able to find a great one on thecheap... used or new. Depending on what you want to do with the buggy, theHyper 9 is the newest version of the Hyper line and all reviewsthat I've read are that it's a great buggy which is very stable to drive. Apples and orangesto compare these two....If you want the new hopped up buggy, the 9 is for you.If you're trying to get into a great buggy for cheap, look for a 7. Sorry thta I can't speak to the MBX.

H7 for bashing H9 for racing.  Both are great.

sure the 9 is great an i have one.but if you dont have existing parts ie servos,motors ie a .21 and a radio set up as well as some other heres an theres its gonna cost you 1000$. 450 kit 225 motor 200 servos just with that your at 825$ an you have no radio.and no way to start it .there is no rtr form.and if you have no expirence building a buggy this is not for you as the brake throttle situation will destroy you. the 7 is old news. mbx is old as well.why dont you try the 8 ,8.5 rtr.good all around.if not that the ofna /picco buggy has 16mm shocks and a good picco .21.this is no question the way for you.
