    RC Screwz?

    I still use the stock phillips head screws for the most part . I just don't seem to have the issues of stripping the head like i do the allen wrench screws. and i hammer them in and out with an 18v dewalt screwgun. when one starts to get "iffy" i replace it dewalt also serves my starter motor...

    Buying Parts?

    turdmax has really taken HPI has really taken hpi down hill since the purchase. they release new models, but fail by EPIC standards to supply parts for current models. guess all they were interested in was the HPI name cause they sure arent doing anything for current savage owners right now...

    Upper pins

    could invest in a swaybar set that come with the plate to keep those pins from sliding out and can keep your high$ skid that way. do not necessarily have to install the swaybars

    Starter plate pin looks to have sheared in half

    I have spare pins and springs but if the engine is on its last leg with no compression, resistance is Futile just buy a new powerplant

    savage x 4.6 replacement engine

    spendy ordeal converting to electric. better off just buying a new electric if that is what you desire. picco, Lrp, or novarossi is your best bet.better craftsmanship, longer lasting and cost a bit more than RTR engines, though

    What did you do to your HPI Savage today?

    cutting the antanae tube down and sliding a good amount of the wire back into the radio box so they are slightly lower than the rollbar will save you many headaches.with a digital reciever, even if the antennae is all stuffed in the radio box, it will not affect distance very much that was my...

    How many Rc's do you have?

    if HPI/Ripmax hadnt decided to put the axe to the parts supply chain, you may have very well had one easy enough

    Spares update

    when i made those L-brackets, i drilled and tapped the ends so i wouldnt have to mess with nuts. My fat, johnsonville sausage sized fingers do not handle small nuts or fasteners real well, and when i drop them my eyes have a problem with re-locating them on the floor. I am pondering a 3D...

    Non-HPI tanks on my savage's over the years.

    thats awesome you had issues with the 8T tank huh? I don't like the fact that the fuelline acts as the seal as it enters the side of the tank other wise it has seemed adequate but only run a few tanks through it so far

    novarossi legend 28-8

    Yea, my nova is like that too. I bought all my current engines together and pretty much broke the Picco p3 and the nova in together. they have about 1.5 gal through them. the picco feels just as tight it was the first tank i ran through it, and the Nova feels like its had 10gal through it and is...

    I actually tried to minimized the amount it stuck out past TVP's I wanted the mounts to be inside the plate and the tank to be as far in as possible. but it just wasnt meant to be as i was too lazy to get out the torch, heat the mounts up and tighten those bends(pretty wide bends). those 2...

    Spares update

    Yea, they been paid. Every one of us who bought hpi products paid them for their products. Dodge didnt stop making parts for dodges for a year when fiat bought them. Direct tv didnt stop service for a year when att&t bought them Its bad business to stop supporting your customers after you been...
