Werner... I see this thread has attracted quite a few followers since I was last here lol
My Hobao, has been fantastic. I couldn't recommend it more!
I actually bought mine as a roller for $200 back when it was not too well known. I have a friend who goes RC'ing with me and he is always talking bad about it, he really wants it to break once in a while, lol. I really can't blame him, he has an orignal Emaxx that we have completely built up and upgraded over the years but it is always breaking.
I mean aside from the Roll bar getting replaced, nothing has really been a problem since my initial upgrades, posted at around page 3-4 of this forum.
I just got the Arrma Kraton v4 because of all the hype. I haven't really gotten a chance to take it bashing very hard yet. I did take it apart to check that all screws and shims were properly set though before driving it. I have to say, I was kind of disappointed in the Diffs, at least in their size. They really seemed quite smaller then the Hobao and HPI Savage Flux HP XL. I can't imagine it lasting nearly as long with some 1/8 monster truck tires.

well folks, the hyper mt2+ 2019 will be AWESOME ! that sounds like a fan oy : but i'm not ! the new hyper mt2+ is WAY better than the old one !
hobao improved many points like : LONG shocks, center diff, lipo placed more in the front, sturdier bumpers, sturdier body, longer suspension arms, bigger tires ...
i wish they would have improved the steering... i wished they would have kep the old lipo trays ( that's a matter of taste...)
the truck will be available july 15 , that's what hobao told me !
