need some suggestions from ya all
Hey guys,
I finally bought a Savage, but not an RTR. I picked up the kit and a new Nomadio tranciever kit (tach, temp, the works) from Tower Hobbies because my lhs doesnt stock Nomadio, and they were outta Savage kits so the guy told me ot get it off Tower. Now that I have kit in my room totally unasembled, waiting on my sets of RPM A-Arms. I have 2 RC10GT2 stock servos that I figured id use for the throttle and tranny for now, but I need a suggestion for a digital coreless motor steering servo with a short latency and high torque. Also, is there any other upgrade that i should buy before i assemble this kit? hope it all goes well building my first kit.

Check these out. P/N 8127

This is the one I'm running and I like it. It's a little overkill (unless your going to run a huge rim/tire combo) and not quite as fast as the one I listed above.

Jesus! that think can lift a case of coke! Well, I found my steering servo, ill pick it up tomorrow along with some more shock oil and tire glue. Any suggestions for oil weight with teh stock shock pistons? ill be pure enduro style bashing on trails make by quads and dirtbikes in the woods i live next to. does anyone have suggestions of wheels+tires for loamy stuff? im looking for wide, bigger tires to lift it a touch more, and for the nasty mud puddles (when i say mud, i mean teh stuff so thick that your shoes get stuck in it and come off, even when they are tied tight kinda mud) Also, would it be a good idea to get teh 3 speed tranny and gear the pinion/spur combo low for loaom nad mud with tons of hills?
