Default Ofna Ultra MBX pro

i was just wondering what you guys think of the Ofna ultra MBX pro buggy? Im getting one and am wondering if there are any good upgrades that i should do to it? It already has an HPI 25, heavy duty aluminum shock towers, and good CVDs

Are you getting the MBX Pro or the MBX Comp?

Is it new or used?

Upgrades if it's stock: Better steering servo and a 6V humppack are essential.

upgrade to the PBS suspension arms...the C-hub setup on the MBX is weak IMO.....you can get CnC knuckles and C-hubs and rear uprights but you'll spend about 250 on all that crap when the PBS is stronger and NIP is about 80 to do all 4 corners of the buggy.....and get the CnC Chassis braces....the rest is optional as your driving gets more performance driven...

The MBX has the PBS suspension from the beginning

It depends upon the condition it's in. How used is it, is the engine still good and whether it's still completely stock or not.

But apart from what I wrote earlier, I don't think that that much is necessary.

There are chassis braces on the site, but there should be no need to change the ones that are on the buggy already.
