ORIGINAL: nitro-rob I've been hearing about a new 1/10 called the RX4 but its not on their website. I don't know if its a good rumour or not.<div>That is a slick looking wheelie bar. I'm going with road rage on 2.8s when the rims come in.</div> However, if this is a more robust version of the Tekin RS/RS Pro that can run the new Pro4 4 pole motors, you'll not have to worry about giving up power, because it's there in spades with the Pro4. |

ORIGINAL: redfisher1974 FYI, The extra set of hex's in the parts bag lets you use Traxxas rims like the 2.8'' 30 series I run on my Storm. The extra hex's even widen the stance a little. How did the 30 series work out? I am thinking about it...but worried about the weight.... |
RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
Thank you for the heads up. I just ordered the combo with the skid plate and t-bone (whatever that is).

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
A bit too critical. They love the stampede, though.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
That review was unwatchable.
Rob, note that there's an MMP sitting behind the radio box but in front of the stock ESC (who are these hacks?) |
RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
I realized that and edited my post. It was pretty painful. They seem kind of dumb, though.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
There are some truths there though...
Shim the diffs, Load the diffs with some thicker fluid, Upgrade the Steering servo, Install Metal Servo Arm, De-Tune the ESC.... These are all things they mentioned....and these are all things that have been mentioned as 'fixes' in this thread. UnWatchable....Yes Useful...Well...Sorta. I love this truck....It's size...Capabilities... She just needs a little freshening up to be the perfect portable bash-hound. |

You really can't compare the XS to a Stampede, they are really two different trucks.

In my personal opinion there is no 1/10 truck or smaller than can take a beating like my Savage XS's can and keep on going..

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
It's funny that this review came up. Sold my Flux XS today and am waiting on my Pede 4x4 to arrive. My son and I had two of the older XL-5s and upgraded them to brushless. They were unbreakable. We put them through hell and they kept on ticking. I plan on running the Pede in shallow rocky streams and stuff like that. Can't wait to get it.
Nothing against the Flux XS, I just wanted something a little bigger and with more ground clearance. Not worried at all about the tipping over thing. Just a friendly suggestion. Try being a little less defensive and a little more open minded. |

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
To each his own. Like I said, my son and I had tons of fun with our Pede 2WDs so this 4WD shouldn't dissapoint.
This XS was just too small for me. |
