    New Problem with Savage X 4.6

    What I did with mine was take the air cleaner off. Look down in the carb, and turn my throttle adjustment on my radio up a little to open the carb up 1 or 2 mm. Then hook up glow starter, put in roto start, start rolling the motor over, at the same time hold your finger over the end of the...

    New Problem with Savage X 4.6

    Do you mean the roto start is spinning and the truck is not or the roto start won't turn the motor over at all or it is turning the motor over and it will not start.

    New Problem with Savage X 4.6

    The only O-ring I see is the one that is on my chrome roto start shaft. If you pull your roto start shaft out of the black plastic case it should have a blue O-ring in the groove.

    extended chassis questions

    With the extended TVP's and LCG does it fly pretty flat. I don't want something I'm going to have to throttle and brake alot in mid air to control. With a mid tank mod, What tank do I have to get. I haven't had any trouble with my tank except it tends to run lean at half tank to empty.

    New Problem with Savage X 4.6

    All R/C trucks are going to be a "pain in the side" until you get em running right. Mine was the same way, I was ready to give up, but with a little patience and this websites knowledge I would'nt trade my Savvy for nothing. Is your rotostart chrome rod spinning and the back bearing plate on the...

    extended chassis questions

    yeah, looks like a good deal. can you still do some wheelies with the truck, my biggest problem is it'll stand straight up and tear the back of the body up. I put a wheelie bar on it and a new body and lasted 2 passes and done it again.

    I have the RPM center skid plate. Will it work with the new extended TVP's or will I have to get an extended skid plate. Will my stock HPI roto start work with the longer TVP's or will I have to get some kind of longer shaft. Thanks alot.

    extended chassis questions

    I've put my truck away for the winter and am getting ready to get it back out again. I had trouble last year of it flipping over in corners and flipping over backwards. I've widened it out with wider wheels and tires, and am wanting to extend it. Since I've been away from it for about 5 months...
