Hi,
I'm afraid i'm no expert but, i have just finished building an axial SRX10 and, although it's 10th scale, the one you are looking at is very similar.
When i was looking around i did see some very cheap, fragile looking trucks for lots of money, have to say, that one looks very good. Remember they are built for climbing not for speed so, they will prob not like to be driven at a wall at high speed lol.
I am very pleased with the axial but, it is quite expensive by the time you have bought the kit, radio and battery. Hope this helps a bit,
Cheers Brian.

It depends what you want from the truck, the hsp is a bit lacking in finnish and reliability of its components, good as a first truck to just bash about with but for that money you can buy a good Axial or losi crawler or a tamiya scale truck. just depends what you want. I would personally buy a decent second hand truck that I could tinker with. Have a look at www.ukrcrc.com/forum there is a load of good specialist info on there and a good few of members here are members there too. good luck whatever you choose to do, enjoy the hobby.
