Reverse on Savage .21
Hey All,
Just purchased a Savage .21. This thing is great. It sure does take a beatin.
My question is my receiver has a switch for reverse. When I flip it to reverse nothing happens. I am new with MT so if this is normal, please dont laugh (HAHA). Is this another thing where you have to install this after you buy it?

you must purchase a reverse module to install in the Savage's gearbox. Out of the box it doesn't have reverse. Contact HPI or someone like Tower Hobbies for the reverse mod. I think it costs about 40.00 or so dollars.

it took me about a hour and a half to install... thats with looking for dropped bits, misplaced tools, redoing something after I messed up, etc.
I did this last night so I only got in a quick test run to make sure its working, but I would say it worth it to avoid all the times I had to run over and move the truck by hand when it got stuck somewere.
