RE: Help: Savage Flux 2350

I use two velcro straps per side, maybe overkill but I had plenty so whatever. But yeah, I basically hacked off the lock tabs and just use the velcro. I am also running the GCM battery box...

RE: Help: Savage Flux 2350

You shouldn't need to change the gear ratio at all, even with going to the slightly heavier XL chassis. In gear, gearing down actually puts more load on the batteries/esc and less on the motor and...

RE: Help: Savage Flux 2350

2. If you are going to use RPM arms, might as well just use both the upper and lowers. Otherwise, if running Savage arms, the XSS/XL part numbers are fine. Never had those break on me, even on my...

RE: Savage XL pinion Question

The older diffs before the recent refresh of the line used 13t pinions. The refreshed line now uses the Flux's diffs which are 29/9.

This...

RE: Help: Savage Flux 2350

Whether you go with offset wheels or the XL width axles, something is bound to break. For the most part there isn't any difference.

RE: Help: Savage Flux 2350

1. Unless you are doing mega jumps, the standard Savage arms are more than capable. Otherwise, RPM makes quality stuff thats far better than any aluminum arms.
2. Not really worth the cost. But...

RE: proline body question

Yes. Pretty much any of the t-maxx 3.3 will fit the Flux (and Savage X for that matter).

RE: mamba monster

Depends. If its a 8th scale sized engine, they yeah it will. If its a 550 can, probably not. HPI sells a Savage with a 2650kv running a rebadged MMP for 4S. The SCT 2400 is a 4 pole, so it has...

RE: differences between the x, xl, flux. i cant tell!!!!

Go to the HPI website, download the manuals for the three vehicles (4.6, XL and Flux) and you can see what the differences are. Depending on what skew you picked up, the differences between the XL...

RE: New flux is silly!...but

1. Not sure about this. To reset it, you should be able to hold the trigger at full throttleuntil it beeps green, then hold the trigger in beep mode until it beeps red, then let it sit in neutral...

RE: Could my tow be out?

Maybe. Measure the tie rods and compare to what the manual says; I believe it runs a bit of toe-in. You could also leave it with a bit of toe-out too, make the truck turn slightly better, but it...

RE: Flux front A-arms

Ugh, don't get that 'suspension upgrade'. At very least switch to the Savage X SS upper arm set (http://www.tcscrawlers.com/HPI-Adjustable-Upper-Arm-Set-Savage-85066-p-17518.html) as they are bit...

RE: New Savage Flux owner.

With the new servo, the wheels will move with when stationary to some degree. However you need to tighten up the servo saver spring a bit to account for the more powerful servo.

ProLine...

RE: New Savage Flux owner.

It is a MT, it is not going to steer like a truggy. Best bet is to do searching on 'steering mod'. I personally run the FLM draglink on all my Savages and have gone through the trimmed the hubs to...

RE: bulletproof diffs?

As for the bulletproof, you can just get the ring and pinion gear. You can then use all the same cups, drive dogbones, and axles.

RE: Flux rpm

You are going to probably have to deal with it. RPM isn't going to make any changes due to the costs of re-designing, if needed, re-tooling, etc is just too expensive.

Like any aftermarket...

RE: Flux rpm

They are the same suspension arms as the Savage X just as the page says so (http://www.rpmrcproducts.com/products/HPI/SavParts.htm#arms). So, if you like RPM's stuff, then yes.

RE: Better Shocks for Savage X 4.6 rtr

Let me make it crystal clear: It Does Not Matter. These are the same shocks that are on the Flux, geesh.

RE: When will we see the new X

Buy a roller off eBay and build from there especially if you are "losi-fy"ing or whatever-ing it. Heck of a lot cheaper than pay the preminum on a "new" truck with minimal changes.

RE: Bullet Proof Diff Question

It does. It goes from a 7.3275 gear ratio with the Savage X diffs to a 7.138 gear ratio with the bullet proof diffs. Which equates to roughly about ~1mph if that.
