Which is faster, the Hosim or the HYPER GO H16PL?

The Hosim. It claims 62+ MPH from a 2850KV brushless motor and 100A ESC. HYPER GO does not publish a top speed for the H16PL.

Which is better for a beginner?

The HYPER GO H16PL. It is smaller, cheaper and ready to run with the battery included. The Hosim's 62+ MPH speed is a lot for a first car.

Can the Hosim run on 4S?

Yes. Hosim lists support for 3S or 4S LiPo, and the included pack is 5000mAh 3S. Check temperatures and gearing before you run 4S.

Which lasts longer per charge?

The Hosim claims 25+ minutes on its 5000mAh 3S pack. HYPER GO does not publish a runtime for the H16PL.

Is the Hosim worth the extra money?

Yes if you want 1/10 scale, published specs and 4S headroom. If you just want a small brushless buggy to bash around, the HYPER GO covers that for less.

Where can I run each one?

The Hosim needs open ground such as a park or dirt lot because of its size and speed. The 1/16 HYPER GO fits smaller spaces like a driveway or backyard.
