Hey, anyone of you heard of this company? What are the reviews for their 1/10 & 1/8 RTRs? Their prices are cheaper and I'm looking into a 1/8 brushless pro version buggy selling for CDN$349!

This new 1/8 Scale Brushless Pro Version RC Buggy is the beast you want, if you want Big and Powerful.

Comes with factory installed Fan Cooled 3300KV 3 Phase Novatech Brushless Motor and Novatechs latest Fan Cooled 70 Amp Brushless Electronic Speed Control.

Straight out of the box this buggy goes hard leaving lesser powered buggies in its dust. This is our most powerful 1/8 Scale Electric Buggy to date, and its built tough to take it. The new Brushless Version has many familiar and new features like Coil Over Alloy Cap Oil Filled Shocks, Fully Proportional Braking, Forward, Reverse, Full Ball Bearings and Specifically Designed All Terrain Tires, Countersunk Alloy Chassis, Alloy Shock Towers, 3 Differentials, Splash Guards plus a long list of features below.

Whether you are a professional racer or you just want to blow off your pals cars, the new Pro Version now comes the very latest 98% efficient Novatech Brushless Motor. Not only does this motor give the truck a whopping 30% more speed, it also screams around the track much longer due to the fact the brushless motor is 98% efficient compared to only 48% for brushed motors. When equipped with a 11.1 volt LIPO battery, it will provide serious competition for your friends Nitro buggies.

This Buggy comes 100% fully assembled straight out of the box with a 2 Channel Radio and fully painted body..

I like the stock swaybars, and cooling fans. This is a solid looking buggy.

Redcat sold a buggy extremely similar to that and a lot of people had tons of issues with it.

HSP is the manufacturer of most of the models offerred by Himoto, Redcat, and Exceed. Each of these brands just rebrand HSP cars/trucks. Many have reported issues, but if you accept them for what they are, a low-cost entry into the hobby-grade RC world and thus accept that their durability may not be on par with better known brands, you should be ok. Just make sure you're ok with those things I just mentioned.

Yes, Yes, for the most part, in the RC world, you get what you pay for.

I believe that they have offices there. Maybe customer support.
