I've had my reverse 4 about a year and no probs yet.


You probably have the older Savage 21. The reverse module will work okay on it, but on a K/F 4.6 or larger or even more powerful aftermarket engine, HPI simply did not design the reverse module to take such abuse from the massive torque these engine put out.

I ruined way too many reverse modules, I simply quit using them. Now, if HPI redesigns them to handle the K5.9, then yes, I will buy that one oand put it in my Savages.

Yes, thats true. MazdaB2600 has a sick modified custom racer Savage, and it will hang even with buggies in some cases. However, such custom rigs require a ton of mods to become true racers. Where on the other hand, the Revo is basically meant to be race ready out of the box. HPI did not intend the Savage to be a racer in its stock form unfortunately.
