    whats the best engine for the savage ?

    I had an LRP .28 spec 3 in a Losi Aftershock and it was a beast and it was easy to tune. My second pick would be an OS .30, I ran one in a Savage SS, this was the easiest engine to tune and keep tuned I have ever owned but the LRP had little more pep IMO. Heres a look at the power of the LRP...

    wheely king

    I was told the same thing, very simple to make it 4wd. It looks like it would make a great 1/10 scale crawler with a few mods.

    This guy is a NUTHEAD!!!

    If you sink an engine it's not ruined. I completely sank a trx 2.5 three times, took it apart cleaned and lubed everything put a new glow plug and it started like nothing ever happen to it. The engine lasted a little over 5 gallons, 3 of them were after the last time it sank.

    Take a better look at the video, they are Jumbo Kongs. The video was made 2 1/2 years ago, were Swamp Kongs even made then? http://www.rcnitrotalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20413&highlight=savage+duck

    Anyone Know What Kind Of Shocks These Are?

    Kyosho and Tamiya are famous for putting crappy spring shocks on their kits. It probably came off of an old Kyosho kit. This is why I never buy anything without a clear description...I don't like surprises.

    help needed by engine expert

    What is more important speed or power? The .30 and up will be fast and have A LOT of bottom end torque. A .28 will have good low end torque but will turn more rpm's If both engines are geared correctly the .28 will have the better top speed. Instead of a force engine take a look at...

    waterproof

    I use plasti dip on the servos and put the receiver in a balloon. To get a balloon to seal I zip tie it close to the receiver, then put grease in the tail of the balloon then zip tie it again, the grease serves as a water barrier. Check this out...

    starting prob

    Sounds like you need to adjust your idle screw. When you apply the brakes the carb slide will close until it hits the idle screw, tighten it a little and that should cure that problem. If your at factory settings it's probably a little rich, start leaning (turning clockwise) the HSN. For...
