    Savage steering problem

    Have you made sure the adjustment nut on the steering bell crank is tightened? Stock adjustment is shown lower right of the picture below. I personally would go tighter.

    Removing reverse from transmission

    https://www.hpiracing.com/en/part/87039 Go through the manual for the reverse module. It gives all the original part numbers for the components that were removed in order to fit the reverse module.

    Throttle linkage and LRP ZR.32 idle problems

    Start by tuning your Idle needle so there is about 1mm gap when looking down your carb. After a little break in you can then adjust accordingly while doing the rest of your needle tuning.

    Having trouble setting the carb

    Perhaps you have an air leak. You can pull your fuel tank and fuel lines out and stick them under water, then blow through them. If you see air bubbles, you've got a leak. You can also try sealing your engine, THIS thread will instruct you for that.

    Drones anyone?

    What exactly are you looking for? RTF? BNF? Kit? Brushed? Brushless? What kind of flying do you want to do and where? Hopefully others can help you more. I've only ever flown cheap RTF drones.

    In search of a piece!

    If you know the size you need, you could try using a stand-off. Or adapt a spacer. https://www.mcmaster.com/spacers?orderview=new

    Hpi savage x 4.6 steering problem

    It is this assembly. You tighten the nut under the spring. But if you pick it up and it still doesn't want to turn, you likely either stripped the servo horn/ gear teeth or damaged something inside the servo.

    Hpi savage x 4.6 steering problem

    If you pick the truck up, does the steering work? Your steering bell crank may be loose and need tightening.

    Good candidate for flux conversion?

    You're right, not terribly hard to buy a cheap used flux. Drive it stock a little bit then maybe merge the two chassis. Might come out cheaper than converting your nitro truck.

    Good candidate for flux conversion?

    I'd go for it. With those Cen diffs you'll be a step up with the flux conversion. It's all a money game though. Do you already have electronics?

    I'm back and I have some questions

    That's a K4.6, which only came on the Savage X SS and Savage SS. If you post more pictures of the truck we can confirm what you have. https://www.hpiracing.com/en/part/15201

    Fuel Tank Relocation

    There is an exhaust that mounts behind the rear shock tower, in the position you speak of. It looks great! It's one major flaw......you hit the truck on its tail and you destroy it. I suspect the same would be true for a tank sitting back there.

    Fuel Tank Relocation

    The most common relocation is what is called a mid-tank mod. The tank is moved to the area of the electronics box, usually getting a bigger better tank as well. This also requires purchasing a small receiver box and relocation the receiver to the outside of the TVP.

    Converting Savage x 4.6 to electric

    I keep almost getting pulled in with that sort of thinking. Truth is, if you don't have a worthwhile 1/8 combo (esc, motor) and batteries/charger you could still spend several hundred dollars more. That's when I think about just buying a new/used Flux and keeping my Savage a nitro. Then I...

    engine ?

    I'm curious, @bobbd, have you weighed your Savage? I'm fairly certain if somebody looks at your truck wrong it could bend. :eek:
