Just got a Flux - What to do first?

[Limpan]

Hey guys, awesome forum!

I just got myself a Savage Flux since I felt that I had not "hardcore basher".. I've already got a Vorza for the Track, and a Firestorm Flux for... dont even know why I have that thing xD

Anyways. I've seen alot of cool stuff on this forum, many cool "how-to"s etc.. But its a bit overwelming, so I would really appreciate some advices!

What modifications/upgrades should I do right away? Im only driven it once for 2 minutes on asphalt, and the servo obviosly has to go. Do you go with 2 servos or 1?

Im running 3S 5000mah 40C in series. Will the stock gearing be too much for this?


Thankful for any answer!

Best Regards,
Linus, Sweden

the stock gearing may be ok but, I'd start with the 20 tooth 1st and check temps. If everything is cool you have room to go up on that

what brand lipos?

Thanks Shaun!

Incomming noob question... Why do I want that 18/23 gear? And whats the easiest way to get to it? :D

Is it just me or does the Savage feels kinda difficult to work with? Compared to my Vorza this thing is like rocket sience ^^
