TRA2443 is what ThunderbirdJunkie used, if he recalls correctly.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...

ThunderbirdJunkie is more interested in what wire he used...because if he used an AM/FM antenna, then his radio is not going to act properly.

What did you use to replace the stock antenna wire?

Yeah, but you're smart enough to be working on things. Y'know...not a ham-fisted hack.

You overtightened the screws and pulled the threads out of the plastic.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...

OK. Now try calibrating the speed control. If that doesn't help, or at least change something, flip the Ch2 switch to R, and retry calibrating the speed control.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...

The speedo (ESC, speed contol) is definitely not acting right.

Read the calibration part. In your case, instead...

Use the shims that are already there, and move one from the diff cup side and just move it to the ring gear side.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...

ThunderbirdJunkie's truck had a hair of positive camber when he installed his TRA2443 links. Never install turnbuckles without adjusting them.

That isn't frequent. ThunderbirdJunkie has run the snot out of his stock ESC and it's just dandy. Happened to have an RX8 laying around, so it went in :)

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...

Sounds like a typical Castle sensorless ESC/motor combo. ThunderbirdJunkie's did that too until he installed his RX8.

He's not trash talking, he's saying that anybody that buys those from you are just ill-informed.

More to the point, you have them listed as Turnigys, when they are not. So, you're also lying,...

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...

Motor/ESC can stay until they fry. The motor performs well, ITBJHO, and the ESC you'll be unlikely to have issues out of unless you run 3S.

The XS3 is still a valid radio. If you've got...

ThunderbirdJunkie would go 4000kv. Kershaw Designs has 5mm bore 48p pinions, too.
