Today I boxed it up, truck and every part for it. Put it on a long flat bed along with several other boxes inside a huge crate and shipped it to Indiana. Along with it are almost all my other RC's too and all my things inside my house. Glad to finally move out of Spain and back to the States soon!
 
Got it to my avatar!!!! Now to get it to the thread....Stared at the savage all day and admired its greatness!!!
 
Burned 2 spurs...threw Savage after 2nd....went to lhs tore down, found a cracked motor plate...so frustrated I left it there. This thing is killing me!!! Picked up front RPM arms, and skidplate.(blue) Maybe next week ill be able to run a little.
 
bashed around the yard for a tank or so til I only had a front wheel drive savage. Busted rear diff case, headed to the LHS got all the stuff and fixed it up. Didn't even have time to see if the tranny was fixed or not from the last time out. Oh well always tomorrow
 
Hit some kickers at the bmx track, with a few little bogan kids loving it. Stacked fiarly hard, and found a rear wheel quite loose.. assesed it to be stuffed bearings, drove it for a bit more, next jump I lost a front pin, top arm popped out. I put the biggest zip tie around the bumper, but it still snaps every few runs. anyone else have this problem?
 
put on new bulkhead braces, bearings and diffs. always a fun part of the hobby when you get to bolt a new piece onto your truck.
 
Did some power raking in the front yard with the flux and mulchers. Then spent 20 min getting grass outa the esc, lol.
 
Charging the batteries now. Added a pair of regular Savage shocks alongside the aluminum BBs at the rear. Refilled the BBs, took out one of the rubber spacers from each to let the ride height come up a bit, and cut those tubular spacers that come with the nylon BBs to replace the C-spacers.

Just waiting on a bind plug to install the Losi/Spekky 2.4Ghz system I got from Hyp.

Try leaving a bit of flex in the ziptie, enough so you can push the center of the tie down about 1/4 of an inch. Pulling it tight takes away any give, and it just snaps.
 
installed a battery level indicator, almost was able to install an RPM center skid plate, but looks to be to short for the XL, got me some Assoriated RC8T Wheel Hex that I will be installing on my savage.
 
Got it back from the lhs, made a few test runs....running great. Now I'm about to jump on installing these rpm arms and skid plate.(blue ofcourse)
 
I watch the movers pack up my savage :( I won't see it intill may sometime :( :( Then last weekend I crashed my sc10 and wished I kept my savage to take with me :(
 
All 5 of them collecting dust...... just too many competing priotities......

I can't even remember the last time my son and I ran them....
