    Roto starter wount start engine ??

    The compression is very tight on a new engine, the rotostart should have no problems. I believe that the Rotostart 2's used to have to much grease in them from the factory and once it bleeds out, they work better. Make a mark on your flywheel where the piston is at top dead center (TDC) and...

    Xl video

    Java how did you do the onboard off to the side? I had been drawing up ideas on how I was going to do it. But I don't have a camera that can have on of those external lens's hooked up. I was hoping to do it first because I hadn't seen it done before on rc cars. Great job. I got to watch it one...

    Just another short bash video

    Yeah, same thing. You are referring to this video. Like I said, got kicked out of one place and had to come home for repairs at the second, so I just pulled out that sheet of plywood and filmed some more because I didn't want to drive back. I too liked the shot in the long grass, those mulcher...

    Just another short bash video

    Pretty much the same as my last one, although now I have a new motor. We went to two other places and forgot the camera, but we were asked to leave the first place (since we were trespassing) and the second we ran into some mechanical problems. So we came back home and just shot a few...

    The k5.9 has arrived!

    Drove with a guy this weekend at the park with an XL, it was sweet. I can't imagine one in my S25. My LRP S3 held up just fine though.

    Savage XL Review

    I saw this at the LHS this weekend and I don't know why they didn't put the gas tank behind the engine. There is so much room back there. Would have fixed the tank half lean issue. Has anyone else seen one. Pretty sure it was $589.99 here in KS.

    Pull start slipping

    Ha, mine is doing the same thing, seemed to get worse when I added a piece of fuel tubing to extend the pullstart handle away from the engine, so it wasn't inside the body. However it only does it at the beginning. Once the engine is warm, it doesn't do it.

    Screw Kit

    Hey thanks, I'll stay away from the stainless. If you get a moment would you guys link to where to get the screws. I am still a noob trying to learn all the names of dealers and part makers like IRC and Mcmaster Carr.

    Screw Kit

    Hows does one contact this Natedog? I don't really have any custom parts that need special screws. I am more looking for just the stock ones. Thanks

    Screw Kit

    Both savages I have bought have been used, there have been a few screws missing and I have to pay four bucks for four little screws. So I looked on eBay and found some screw grab bags and wanted to know if anyone has purchased one. Here are a few pics from various auctions...

    Fail Safe!!!!!!!

    No, what happens is, say you are out driving and you are at wide open throttle heading away from you and you drive so far that your transmitter cannot reach the truck any more. Before you had a failsafe the truck would just keep going, but now that you have a failsafe, the failsafe recognizes...

    Fail Safe!!!!!!!

    Pretty sure that you have too turn everything on. The failsafe should be flashing. Then if you look closely at the failsafe there should be a little button that you can push with a paper clip or pencil tip. With brakes applied at full, push and hold it in for two seconds. After two seconds the...

    Two "new" trucks - One is a Savage

    Just thought I would let you all know of my most recent purchases. I too purchased a Savage 25 like SavageRocks did. Mine is similar and just wanted to see what you guys though and see if you guys know what kind of engine it is. I paid $250 and got the following: 5 sets of tires and rims 2...
