RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

Looks like the truck is in good shape! Good deal too. My roto start has never had an oring on it. I the rod keeps shaking out, it might be wear on the unit itself. The rotostart themselves are...

RE: batteries

Depends on how long you want them to last and how long you want to wait for them to charge them. If you want to cycle them, I would suggest 1C. So, 1200mah=1.2A. So for charging the batts, charge...

RE: Savage X 4.6 running temp?

Nothing too bad with 280. I've always tried to aim for 240 myself as a general basher. It's a bit hot. I would try to find a guide on sealing the engine up. My engine needed sealing very shortly...

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

Battyone, I would suggest making that engine a bit more rich. The smoke should be a nice blue color. If you have temp gauge, make sure you're only hitting around 280 max. I shoot for 240 on my...

RE: old new fuel. Can i still use it?

Your problems with your engine sound like it's sucking air in. Sealing it up will likely solve much of the problem. Despite that, I wouldn't use fuel that has been open a year. I'd toss that out. ...

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

Congrats on the break in! It's always fun to get a new nitro up and running. Nothing like being able to pull that throttle all the way down and smelling that nitro! Sucks about the fuel man! ...

RE: THE Official HPI Savage Flux-HP Thread

RE: Cheapest place to buy body for Savage?

I would just buy a normal clear body for Savvy. About 30 bucks or so. Once you get it, just go pick up a can spray paint of the color of choice. Mask of the window's with painters tape if you want...

RE: Charger for two 2s 35-75c 4000mah batteries

Hobby King is a great place to shop for some cheap rc stuff. In order to run that beast of a charger, you need a DC power supply. Problem is the watt requirement is pretty high. You'd be looking...

Always nice to smell that sweet nitro burning isn't it? Something keeps calling me back to nitro despite my Flux. Glad you're back into it! As far as the AM radio goes, it would appear it was just...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Steelgears, I'd considered a spool before but didn't really have the means. I'd be interested in that no doubt about it. I'd go steel all the way. Steel one for my brushless setup, and alum(if...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Great list eightfingers. Looks awesome man. I've never had a problem with the ball cups but extra or RPMs couldn't hurt like airmayle said. New bodies are cool, just be sure to have some lexan...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Rims should work. Nice chrome! :) Rear tires are solid, but the front tires I'm not so sure about. One of the links are for Short Course Trucks, so I believe those are going to be a bit too narrow...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

I'd just go with regular plastic man. It's cheaper...and while I won't say I find graphite to be WAY weaker, it usually isn't as strong as most nylons. The advantage you get from graphite is that...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Nah not being sarcastic. Whats the construction of the chassis that you're looking at? Two strips like that down either side of the truck?
