Hi. I've narrowed it down to these two buggies. Here are the specs of each.
HoBao Hyper 7 TQ 28 Sport RTR
1/8 scale off road
• 4WD shaft drive
• Includes .28ci engine
• Pre-painted bodyshell
• Pull start engine
• Steerwheel radio included
• Supplied 98% built & ready to run
or...............
Kyosho Inferno MP7.5 US Sports
Shaft-driven 4WD chassis with three differentials.
Equipped with an easy-start high-power GXR28 engine with one-way bearingless pull starter.
Front and rear diffs use machined, hardened steel spiral ring and pinion gears.
Teflon clutch shoes.
Hardened clutch bell and spur gear.
Set the end-points etc with the multifunctional Perfex 14 digital transmitter with LCD display, 12 model memory, end-point adjustment, digital sub-trim and more.
Body comes complete with unique color scheme.
Factory-assembled chassis shares the same tough characteristics and low center of gravity as the World Championship winning Inferno 777.
Includes hand-welded manifold and tuned muffler.
Full ball bearings throughout for maximum efficiency through the drive system.
Compatible with many INFERNO 7.5 standard and option parts.
ReadySet Contents
Factory-assembled chassis
Pre-painted body
Digital R/C system installed with wheel-type transmitter
Mounted GXR28 engine

oh, on topic, i broke in a inferno for a customer. horrible engine. running so rich fuel was spluttering out the exhaust and still reading temps around 300 F. also the engine wud only start correctly every now and then and most the time it would fire backwards
the hyper 7 is a great bug though

Inferno 7.5 sports is not a great vehicle, the Hyper is much better. Kyosho cut too many corners with that particular RTR, steer clear. The Hyper is a great buggy, I used to have one.

Speaking as someone who's owned all the OFNA line, OFNA is always better than Kyosho. Hypers will never let you down. Kyosho's always let me down.
