WOW!! These FastLane Machine TVPs are sick!!!!

poe

That just about explains it. Btw how do you like the hot rod pipe? is it too loud? What range does it improve. I want my top end better, should i go with a 48t spur, 3 speed or different CB? How do you like the spurrs wheelie bar? has it taken any bad hits? ow far can you lower it? Sorry for all the ?'s.

dISCOdAN

When mine finally crack like everyone elses, I have no clue which ones to get... I really liked the look of the ones Ash put on his X... i think they were Integy's

jeeperscreapers

yea i think ash's are like 4.75 mm thick but standard length and motor height.... fastlane has some that are 4.75 mm thick , extended length , and lower center of gravity

ashburg

yep, integy 4mm...and an integy brace bar on both sides...absolutely no flex there at all

jeeperscreapers

yea ash i slapped those braces on mine to and they ROCK!!! not only are they tough.... they look mean as @@@@ you should think about getting a longer chassis.... i got one with a truckzilla kit and it rocks... it has way more air control and high speed control.... i really want that fastlane extended lcg 4.75mm one now!!!!!!

ashburg

wife's got me painting the kitchen

jeepers...meant to tell you, that truck of your'n looks swEEt with that wheelie bar and all

When the rotostart fails to turn the engine because the receiver on the back plate of the engine spins freely, is that the one way bearing or something else?

quickster-

can a stronger servo be used with the OEM servo saver. may replace the bushings for bearings also. trying to look for the cheapest method of getting good performance for bashing, no plans to race.

dISCOdAN

The slop is mostly cosmetic, unless your a serious racer, but yeah a stronger seering sevo will do you wonders. I'm very happy with Hitec's 645mg... chaep and powerfull. If you did want to bearing up your servo saver its not expensive, just pick up the appropriate size bearings at your LHS.. I never bothered for bashing.


** oh, and if your still on "aa" batteries for your receiver... get a hump pack (about $10 or $15) it wiill make a big difference in your servo's as well**

ashburg

Hey dISCO...hope you don't mind, I put your vids on my [link=http://ashburg.com/?page_id=397]savage and revo videos page[/link] [8D]

dISCOdAN

Not at all bro, I just wish they were better quality for ya

dISCOdAN

jeeperscreapers

also lemme know if this link even works!

I've got a 1400 mAh hump pack so I'm good there. I'm just bashing and can't see myself racing, but want to be able to make tighter turns and have more control. I went cheap and picked up a TowerPro 180 oz servo from ebay. Do you think it's a waste to upgrade the servo saver or the bearings?

dISCOdAN

I bash hard and spend alot of time at my local bmx track and I honestly didn't feel a lick of diffence on my Savage X when I did the bearing mod to my servo saver. Put washers on your tie rod screws so the tie rod ends wont pop off and your good to go in my opinion.

mountain_of_cheese

i'm not sure where that would go, do you have a picture of the washers on the tie rod screws so i have idea of what that looks like.

thanks

dISCOdAN

Here ya go bro: set up all your tie rod ends like this. The washer should be just big enough that the tie rd end wont come off but not so big that it binds as your suspension travels

With my Savage X, Revo, and Jammin all clean and ready for the weekend I decided to do some work on the twin Savage.
I have a pretty good prototype for the receiver box lid made up, I just need to find some tough plastic or thin aluminum to make the final product. This new cover is neccesary because I have two Hellfire 150cc fuel tanks I'll be mounting above the radio box.
In the pics you can see the two setups I am experimenting with. The first is with the tanks at an angle, and the second is with them just side by side. Either way they will hang on the outside of the TVP's a little. I have other ideas I can try as well, just need some building materials from the hardware store now
