My Feedback: (4)

Axial engines are pretty damn sweet IMO... I have the .32, I bought iit for a buggy I ended up selling, but loved the motor so much I decided to keep it for a future project. as it turns out I traded a XXX-NT for a Savage X, and am seriously thinking the Axial is going into that truck.

Anyways, the break in on the axial was one of the smoothest I have ever experienced, and the power is pretty phenominal. for the price the Axial is a damn good Mill...

pitbull14218

why is this better? How many Mach427's are there lol

MadManAndrew

Because "It has a Bigger Carb and a High Compression Head Button".

pitbull14218

Thanks, but i was wanted to see if people had more information from personal experience.

Sugafree

Here's 5 pages on it, Gold vs Teal.........Mach427 possibly best budget engine..

pitbull14218

I bought the Teal one from the link above, thanks for that link! Now i should probly update my clutch shoes? they are stock from my savage 25.... any reccommendations? thanks for all the help!

MadManAndrew

You have the 3-shoe or 2-shoe flywheel? If 2-shoe, get the 3-shoe and refer to the second page of the [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_8837722/mpage_2/tm.htm]"just bought an axial .28"[/link] thread.

pitbull14218

My savage to my knowledge is stock but it did have 3 shoes.... is there anything i have to change on my truck for this motor? Roto start will work with this? it does have the back plate for it.

MadManAndrew

Ya, I know for a fact the later ones had 3-shoe clutches, but the original ones did not...and I found the thread, the link is above.

pitbull14218

thanks i actually read that thread earlier, thats why i asked. i have 3shoes but they are stock and i dont know if i should upgrade to aluminum or something else while im waiting for the shipping of the motor either way.

MadManAndrew

I'm not sure on the differences between the spin-start and the roto-start...If the spin-start uses the same dog-bone style shaft you should be fine with using the roto-start. Otherwise, you will have to buy the spin-start shaft, but you can still use it with your roto-starter...

pitbull14218

is there a way to know for sure, i already plan to not use the engine the first day so i can seal the back plate and carb so im gonna be super antsy!!! lol

Midget

Spin start uses a "Hexagon" head to turn the engine, Sort of like an allan-key.
And a Roto start uses the round head with the pins to turn the engine.

pitbull14218

So coming from my Savage 25 Roto Start, i will need to buy a different tool to spin it over? what do i need?

pitbull14218

Will i have to use my savages exhaust manifold/header?

MadManAndrew

You'll need [link=http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/products_id/5974/n/Team-Losi-Spin-Start-Starter-Shaft]this[/link] to be able to use your roto-start, and yes, you should be able to use your stock exhaust manifold and pipe; Although, if I were you, I'd get a new pipe as well.

pitbull14218

Thanks Joker your very helpfull, yeah i have a tuned pipe already from when my motor worked. but since im going to buy that roto start thing in the link you gave me, im looking around that website to see if there is anything else i need for this since im getting things shipped. i have [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXFXU7&P=ML]these[/link] shoe's stock on my savage and they seem to be good still so i dont think i need new clutch shoe's, but if there is anything else i should get, i think i should upgrade my brakes, and i read there is a steering upgrade i can do too, any ideas? Thanks!

pitbull14218

probly extra spur gears lol?

yamasledhead

I have OS .30vg and it is flawless for 2yrs now.

MadManAndrew

Not necessarily, if you still rockin' the stock clutch bell/plastic spur combo, you should probably look into the HPI vented racing clutch bell so you don't melt your spur though...Oh, actually, what gear ratios are you running? Since you're moving up to the .28 you should probably move to something around 47/18.

pitbull14218

Im just running stock gearing, only thing i did was a tuned pipe and now this nice engine,

MadManAndrew

Okay then, you want to get:

either the [link=http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/products_id/19826/n/HPI-47T-Spur-Gear-1m-Savage]Plastic 47t[/link] spur or the HD Steel 47t spur
and either a [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLSU0&P=7]18t[/link] vented bell or a [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLST9&P=7]17t[/link] vented bell

pitbull14218

thanks, now i forget more teeth = acceleration or more top speed?

Also what air filter should i get since its not a savage 25 motor any more?
