RE: PPP servos -Good? Bad?

I have two of the PPP servos and I also have two MG995 servos. Can't say they are the same servo but I think the MG995 is faster. I just had one of the PPP servos die on me today. I had it installed...

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

Go to the local hardware store and get a new nylon locknut to replace the stock black HPI locknut. The HPI locknut that holds the spur gear to the slipper pad is your problem.

If you use the...

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

RE: Anyone Own a Savage X?

Just got to run the SH .28 engine in my savage today with the 2-speed and man it runs hard.

When I get time I will install the 3-speed to compare the difference from the 2-speed.
