Nitro motor for a Hyper 7
 
Hi,
Can any one tell me if you can put a .32 motor into a Hyper 7? I would like to upgrade from the .21 it came with and was thinking of a .28 but I see there is also a .32. Also if I am looking for speed am I better of with something like an<b id="mainContent"><h1 itemprop="name" class="vi-is1-titleH1" style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: normal; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; font-family: Trebuchet, 'Trebuchet MS'; display: inline !important; "><span style="font-size: small; ">Axial 28 Spec 2s or say a more expensive .21? Are the Axial and SH motors any good?Any help would be appreciated. Thanks</span></h1>[/b]

Aha, I see you are from PA. I use to run a skydiving operation in Perkasie (Pennridge) (Quakertown PA. Thanks for the advice.

Large displacement will give you more torque, but a .21 will have more RPM for speed. You could try a local shop.

For buggies bigger is not better.. Look at something like a Werks B2, B5, or B6.. Top end goes up in about that order...

Argus, Alpha, and Go also make great buggy engines.. I think there are some distributors in NZ.. Dude called Grizz I think from another forum.. All those engines are more for racing though.. Need a good pipe and clutch, and starterbox with batteries...
