Cleaning The Dirtiest Nitro RC, Restoring A HoBao Hyper 7

I brought a Hobao Hyper 7 from Facebook marketplace very cheap. It looks like it was used maybe a couple of times before the pull start had snapped. So seemed to have been sat in a garage for many years since then.
In this video we we completely clean the nitro buggy, it’s covered in dirt that has been on it for years. Getting it clean and ready to be stripped down so we have a rolling chassis
This will be a mini series of us restoring the Hobao hyper 7. So don’t forget to give the video a like and don’t forget to subscribe so you can follow the restoration project.
Hope you enjoy

Love the videos im going to buy a used tmaxx classic to restore soon so this is very helpful I’ll have to try that Wurth stuff. Also u might already know this but I saw a tip on mark Santa Maria’s channel for cleaning exhaust pipes if you submerge them in monster energy overnight all the grime will wipe clean off. Great video!

Yes mate gotta love a tmaxx, I didn’t know about that tip I’ll have to give it a go

kinda funny how 'clean' the center diff still is hahaha

[@dgrc]

I don’t think it’s been used more then a couple of times. Where it was used though I have no idea 🤣

[@gordoroth5439]

What do you think of the engine currently? I was going to buy a similar car, but they spoke so badly about this engine that I ended up giving up on the purchase.

[@RickyD1968]

What happened to the series ???

[@dgrc]

Sorry man, life has been crazy for me at the moment. But I’m hoping be moved into my new house soon where I’ll be able to make so much more content and finally get around to finishing this series 🤣
