RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

I had the same problem buggymangp. I called them and they sent me new rotostart, backplate and all screws necessary no questions asked. The parts arrived about 4 days later.

RE: Warhead wont run

RE: Anyone own a Warhead

I called Hobby Services last week to complain about my truck. I am most pissed that my 12yr old nephew spent $400 of his hard earned money on the truck and hasn't been able to drive it for more than...

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

Not necessarily. I have some Panasonic rechargeables that are 2100 mAH which would be 10,200. Some of mine are less as well though.

RE: Revo 3.3 or LST2?

To cruiserx and lax95. First of all, almost all of the polls you refer to are old, LST (first gen) vs. Revo (first gen). That was not my question. Also, any polls out before the trucks (Revo 3.3)...

RE: Anyone own a Warhead

Sorry Ash, should have said a stock savage X and a stock Warhead. I haven't really upgraded either too much yet. I wanted to run the heck out of the stock engines before upgrading and figured if I...

I'm anxious to hear about the Revo 3.3. Just came back from a weekend on block island, RI. Spent most of the time running my Warhead and my SavageX. The Warhead was running strong till I hit a...

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

If you have any doubt, I would set back to the factory setting in the manual and start tuning again from there. Some engines seem to go through glow plugs during breakin then stop after the break in...

RE: Best fuel for the savage x?

I first used Odonnell 20% but switched to Traxxas Top Fuel 20%. I like the Traxxas better and it's cheaper.

RE: Savage X Wheelie......is it possible?

Sorry meant shift point on clutch. I tried tightening it up and loosening all the way, no go either way. I was with a friend much better at tuning and he couldn't figure it out either. Said he...

RE: Revo 2.5R, Savage X or Warhead - which to buy and why?

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?
