HOBAO HYPER VS 1/8 BUGGY ELECTRIC ROLLER 80% PRE-ASSEMBLED
The Hyper VS platform is more than just a basic RTR design. So much so that HoBao offer an 80% pre-built rolling chassis without esc, motor, servo and radio allowing the user to choose their final components to complete. Maybe you have electrics already, maybe you wish to up spec for better performance. The possibilities are endless with the VS Roller. Whether club racing is your ultimate aim or just some exciting off road fun to ensure the VS buggy was produced to the highest quality standards HoBao moved its focus to material selection, manufacturing and production techniques for its design. This was done to ensure that the buggy is robust enough to take the heavy knocks off road provides, while retaining the excellent fit and finishing touches that set the VS aside from other 1:8 RTR based buggies especially considering the low price point.
The new Hyper VS features a new chassis design, new front and rear towers, new front and rear suspension arms and hubs and much more! Stable and easy to drive, along with great jump handling, the VS is the ideal step up for r/c fans looking for a little more from their 1:8 buggy.
What’s more once you are bitten by the racing bug, HoBao have a wide selection of performance options and upgrades to take your VS to a whole new level and towards the winners circle!

Asked by Dan on 7th May 2019
Yes, so long as your pack fits in the tray...
6S would depend on your choice of motor.

Can I use a 1/10th servo in this or is it got to be a 1/8th

Hi, I have a spare 3s arrma motor and esc lying around, would you recommend buying a better motor and esc or using the one I have? Thanks!
Asked by Lannan on 13th December 2020
If you have one, then it's certainly worth a shot?
However - we would usually run these on a 4S/6S setup so you may find your 3S is a little underpowered
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi, im looking to make a rally car build, and i'm thinking to use this with a 4s esc & motor combo, do u think that would work orshould i use a 1/10 buggy instead
Asked by Alex on 20th January 2021
That sounds like it would work well - your main concern will be bodyshell though
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
hi, are there any body posts conversions, or shock towers where i could put body posts on? thanks
Asked by Alexander Ocarroll on 20th January 2021
Not that I know to off-the-shelf but I'm sure you could modify some from another model.
Sadly not something I've tried so couldn't really advise however

Does the kit come with any basic tools or do you have to buy them separately?
Asked by Owen Brisrow on 2nd November 2021
I would buy the tool as if it does come with any they will be poor quality.
