Mi1v2 or Hobao h4?

[rhbmcse]

Hi folks.
As per the title.

There's around £80 difference between these two.

Schumacher seem to have the pedigree but hobao does look nice.

Hobao being the more expensive which may indicate higher quality.

Anybody had experience of these two to help me with my choice?

Cheers.

Rob.

The Mission1 is a good "My First Race car" and is certainly very competitive at club level.
Parts are easy and quick to source (Schumacher usually ship same/next day 1st class) although in an entire season we didn't have a single breakage.
In all honesty I prefer the driving characteristics of the Mi1 over the 5

Well Im running a couple of hopped up Tammy TT02s at the moment and they're horrible. We're lucky to get through a race without something dropping off, coming unscrewed, breaking or malfunctioning seemingly at whim.

Im fed up with this finally and shortlisted one of the above two.

I just wondered whether anybody has prior with either or both preferably.

The H4 doesnt seem like a 'my first race car' and this isnt my first race car, but it's my first club level decent car having gone as far as I can (and want to) with these awful TT02s...

i am a schumacher fan run the mi5 getting he mi5 evo and out of the two you want i go for the h4 as the mi1v2 is a old car updated (but good) were the h4 is made for todays high end racing

I run an h4 and love it, ita a beautiful handling car. The first batch had some durability issues but hobao soon sorted them out and the car will now stand up to some fairly hefty impacts. Mi1v2 aint a bad car but personally id go for the h4. Modelsport have the h4 at £199 and demon carry most of the common spares

The Hobao looks good but personally I would by a used Xray T3 12 or T4, not indestructable but close and still competitive
