    Motor questions and gear ratios

    I have converted my savage 25 to a dual 700-HO motor setup. I am trying to also change my pinion and spur gears to get a higher top speed. I am using a simple pre-made speed calculator to find the right gear ratios for my truck. My question is, (as I have two motors) how do I calculate the...

    Battery holder problems

    I converted my savage 25 to a full electric setup about a year ago and have been going through all the weaker parts and upgrading them as they break due to the upgrade in power.

    Savage 25 problems

    I've had a savage 25 for a while, just under a year, and in the past few months or so the engine didn't seem happy; it wasn't as fast and it was starting to take a while to start and get up to temperature. But today, when I tried starting it, it wouldn't. I've decided that it's probably time to...
