Default difference between the hyper 7 rtr and hyper 7 pbs

PBS stands for pivot ball suspension. Did you try looking on Ofan web site and compare?

ya i did but it didnt say or i didnt see it, might of missed it.. so thats just what u pay for with the other one thast not the pbs. is it worth getting the other one then? or is pbs better. i heard its more durable but its not as good for steering? whats the deal with that?

I was in your shoes a few years ago... get the PBS. The RTR is crap in comparison to the PBS. Tons of things are skimped on, the only thing I really remember are the shock tower to chassis supports I believe. Get the PBS RTR, not just the plain RTR.
