So I gotta great deal on 3 RCs this weekend. One of them was this.... The receiver has Traxxas on it, but Im not sure. The motor has XTM on the side. This thing is big next to my 1/10 RC10s.
So if anyone could let me know what it is that would be very helpful.

Looks like an Ultra GT from Ofna (USA) or Hong Nor (everywhere else)

yep, nothing traxxas besides the rx there. Jeff was real close there but I think Its an 1/8 scale OFNA ultra LX IIRC. Was popular locally because of the pillowball front end on it and how it handled the sugarclay of the track. my ofna experience started off with the Hyper 7 rtr buggy. OFNA used to be big in entry level/affordable rtr 1/8 scale gas buggies and at any given time they had 5 or 6 models to choose from then one day after the PICCO.21 buggy they had ...poof, they were pretty much gone.

clean it and see if you can get some nitro fumage going on
My first hyper7 went to a friend of mine and he converted it to electric. Mamba max and all the schwag to go with it. Twisted axles, shelled bearings, tweeked just about everything as it slowly tore itself apart. Seems they just weren't up to 4 cell high punch lipo batteries in an already sketchy overpowered mamba
It'll be fun either way though
