    Transmission issue

    Likely, you landed while on the throttle. As @Biddie_fiddler said though, post up some pics of the issue. That'll help alot with diagnosis.

    Installing new steering servo

    If you disconnect the servo from the servo arm, does the servo now go back and forth appropriately? I think something might be binding. Move the steering assembly by hand and see if you can find the tight spot. Something might be overly tight, or bent.

    Installing new steering servo

    There should be a switch for the throttle like what you changed for the steering.

    Installing new steering servo

    This isn’t an uncommon thing. I’ve never looked into the reason, but I suspect it is as you said. The motor in the servo is likely wired differently.

    Installing new steering servo

    Reverse the servo on your transmitter. There should be a switch for steering with normal or reverse. Change it from whatever it’s on to the other setting.

    Venting tires

    How's that tin foil hat fit? Conspiracy theories and all....... Can't force others to take good advice. The person in that video is not the only person doing it. In fact, it's relatively commonplace in high power, big tire setups. Go take a swing by the Arrma Forum if you don't believe me.

    Venting tires

    I think the reason to do it is centrifugal force. Naturally, the stuff inside the tire is trying to go to the tread of the tire when spinning. Basically when you vent the tire instead of the rim you are working with the laws of physics instead of against it (as far as getting water, etc, out)...

    Wheelies

    If you are having a hard time telling if the transmission is shifting, it's possible it's doing it way to early. If so, you may have a much harder time getting it to wheely.

    Fitting the body AND the optional engine guard

    It's kept my engines from scuffing the ground. It's not unbreakable, but it does very well for what it is.

    Advice needed

    Do you plan to buy any other RCs that use LiPos with more cells? This information helps us suggest the right charger for you. For batteries, I would highly recommend going with SMC. Very good value with great performance.

    Fitting the body AND the optional engine guard

    Depending on the body, yes, I've had to adjust several bodies. You could always get some type of SUV body and that would likely clear it.

    Post it to youtube, or other approved sites (see below) and use the insert media button.

    Black metal pipe

    The pressure return location is meant for exhaust on the other side of the RC. That being said, it looks like it should work on a savage.

    8 Shock set up.

    If by roll you mean anti-roll. I would call the bar above the transmission a roll bar (like a cage in a 1:1 race car).

    8 Shock set up.

    Could see if you can find a sway bar setup. HPI used to make one (part# 102538), though I can't find it available anywhere.

    Hpi back in trouble...

    Why wait? They make fantastic stuff that is well supported. You won't be disappointed, I promise you. ;)

    RCDocuments.com

    RCDocuments.com is another site @WoodiE owns. Lots of manuals, parts lists, etc. there. I believe anyone can upload new documents to the site. Plenty of Savage manuals already there, but feel free to add anything you don't find there!
