Hey all, Thankyou for letting me into the group!
Recently purchased my first HPI savage after wanting one since I was a kid. Really happy with the truck and had a great first run!
Second run was great but snapped the upper link support arm on the rear. Seen that this has been a problem other...
These both where my dad's and he as gotten ill. He said the one had a lot of custom stuff done. Can you all help telling me types these are and possibly how much they are worth. I see them range from $290-$600 used like this.
Hi there ,
So into my 3rd tank of savage xl octane, my savage stopped while in action and I tried to start it again and my pull starter got stuck.
so I opened my pull starter and put it back but this time it was way smoother, so i changed it with new one but same issue.
so I opened head of...
Trying to source either a rota start or new pull start for a axial 32 engine.
Flicking through other forums somebody said that a 4.6 pull start should fit right on, but it doesn’t as I had a rota start for one and it doesn’t push up tight into the engine.
Just wondered if anybody could shed...
Looking to see if anyone had a old crankcase for a 25 4.1 engine as managed to crack mine. I know you can still buy new but was seeing what was about first as if going to spend 50/60 quid on a new one I may aswell put a bit more and get a complete engine.
I’m in the UK so preferably someone who...
Bought a old tired savage, tore it down , cleaned it and motor swapped to a track star 28, this engine was 80$ shipped new. I love it . It’s snapped 2 axle shafts so far. Here is what i did to make it fit the 21 I had to clearance the motor mount, shave a bit off the header and roto start, 3...
Just been in HPIs website. Absolutely buzzing to see that they have signed a new deal with a danish company who are restarting the company and will be making new parts and new cars very soon!
Amazing news, maybe I don’t need to sell my savage after all :)
I am finally happy with how my savage has turned out. Its taken many months, more money than I'd like to admit... And the classic, blood, sweat and tears!
It started its days as a savage xl 5.9 with an LRP 32 spec.4 as its lungs. It was a great setup and I enjoyed it for a while. I found a...
Hi all
I like the HPI big bore shock sets but have been put off from the price £95 plus, in the UK ?
To be honest I cannot justify myself spending this kind of money for some shocks, in essence for a toy!
You guys are the experts, I am a total newbie - what alternate brands of shock sets would...
hi all,
Sorry if this has already been covered in another thread but I had a little search and couldn’t find an answer..
I have two problems here. Firstly I shall say that my savage x 4.6 is only used for bashing and it takes quite a beating so I expect to break things but this is getting a...
I learned how to etch aluminum so I decided to start making parts for my savage. This is the first etch I've done I have to get more aluminum so I can try making bumpers.
I have an HPI Nitro Monster King that I bought back in 2010. Hasn't run in a while. After draining the old fuel, cleaning up the fuel lines & carb, cleaning air filter, I just couldn't get this thing to start. New glow plug, check the ignitor voltage, even reset the carb settings.
I primed...
hey guys I’ve been thinking of converting my savage x to xl. I’m planning on going with flm xl tvps FLM45600. Also want to use the flm engine mount FLM45700. Will that mount work with the xl. I’ve looked at flm website and it says savage but I’m not sure if they man any savage. Also besides the...
Ok guys haven’t posted in a while but I’ve been back in the hobby for a while again. I currently have a HPI Savage x and a traxxas e-Maxx Brushless. I’ve been really thinking about getting a 1/5 2stroke rc. I really like the hpi Baja 5b Tsk-b kraken but don’t like the fact it’s 2 wheel drive...
Hey all. Savage has been running good ever since i did the tank mod, threw in a Fresh Cold O.S plug. Finally been able to get a decent tune, running a little rich right now actually. But I've run into some problems involving heat of the engine. She likes to get hot really quick, id say around...
Hey all! Man its been a hot minute since I've even been on this forum... haha my bad I guess. So lets get down to business. I finally got rid of that old 160cc stock tank the savages came with. I was sick of it leaning out on me and I really didn't want it damaging my engine. So I finally bought...
