But if you think about it, it wouldn't let me drive it for a reason, & it was my radio gear that was stopping me.
A faulty steering servo
Oh well I'm happy :beer:
I spent most of the afternoon playing around trying to work this little problem out, after checking batteries, radio gear I noticed on the receiver a red LED kept coming on after playing around with the steering so after disconnecting the servo all was good! :smiliejam:
So replaced the servo...
I'll see how things turn out, I've ordered a few bits from the USA as for some reason I can't get them in the UK.
First off I'll try & keep things all Hpi then I'll go from there.
I've seen on YouTube a savage flux hitting just under 80mph, I'm not sure what setup he was using but from what...
Hi Scott, to start off with I'm going to put the standard blur ESC & TORK 2200 motor in, do some testing then then put the TORK 2650 motor in.
I'm thinking start of standard test then up grade, plus I have spare standard ESC & motor in the shed.
As for LiPo's I'll be using 2x 3s not sure on...
Hi Mickey, I paid £130 for the conversion kit, not sure what that is in $ but I think its really cheap as in the UK the BP diff upgrade kit is £35 each.
So in the long run it's a big saving :smiliejam:
Hi all, my name is Pat
Altho I'm new to the forum I've had Savage's since the 21.
WOW, over the years I've learnt things the hard way what with breakages & modding & still to this day I don't know alot lol!
Anyhow, at the moment I have a X 4.6, XL 5.9 and my main toy the XL flux.
I've got...
I'm using these LiPo's
This radio
As for the radio I haven't changed any of the settings..... I have reset the ESC as the manual & its still playing up.
Thanks guys for your help so far
Pat
I think it's set to auto LiPo, I'll have a good check over it tomorrow & plug the laptop into it. I have a spare ESC but I'd like to find out what the problem is.
Were do I start?
Before I always load the flux into the car, I always check it over & yesterday I found a problem!
I powered the old girl up only not to hear the beeps from the ESC, but some really funny sounds & the LEDs were going mad.
I'm also not getting power to the motor, now what...
Hello,
Mickey got it spot on! 102530 is the right kit to get for changing over to the baja wheels, like I said I've had no problems & I've landed big air on this setup (and not lol)! All I wil say is lock tight the 8mm inner nut
Pat
Lol cheers
Thanks a lot, I really love the way it performs, I changed over to the HD gears in the tranny but thats the norm anyway apart from that no down time with the wheel setup, plus it will pop wheelies as & when on 4s
Spot on, 24mm hpi hubs then I got the 5b wheels with the dirt buster tires.
But the dirt busters didn't last long so I went with the badlands, which are doing much better.
I've got to say that i haven't had any problems with this setup!
Thanks Pat
