Hey guys, I just purchased a savage x 4.6. I broke it in and the first tank after break in I was driving it on grass and I noticed it was slipping & revving really high with no power. I could smell burning plastic. So I stopped & took the spur gear off and it was pretty worn out. It seems like...
I just saw a video on bigsquids page that hpi made about making a comeback. Maybe this summer will be a big one for hpi, I sure hope so!
Also earlier this week hpi emailed me a questionnaire about how they can do better, what I am interested seeing hpi bring to the table and some other...
Got a savage 25 and last 2 times I've tried to use it, the car runs alright for a couple of minutes then either cuts out or if I stop it running it won't start again, been through 2 brand new plugs, was thinking it's more than likely something on the tuning side maybe rather than faulty plugs...
I'm after some wheel nuts for my savage 25, obviously one side of the truck is opposite thread so ordering a set of say eBay which I did before but they were all just one thread (normal thread as I call it!) can anyone help me with this or part numbers, or do you have not o order each side...
hey guys, name is Ricardo
Just got a Savage x 4.6. Had a tmaxx years ago and decided to get back into the hobby. I got the Savage used but previous owner only ran a couple tanks in it and then just stored it. It's super clean. Used it for about 2 days continuously and I think the OWB went out...
Hey,
I'm aware PRC has been out of business for long. But I was wondering if I were to try and get me some USED carbon parts for my Savage, where would the best place be? Does anyone here know anyone who may want to sell their old carbon fiber set-up?
Well, I'm not sure how popular carbon...
I have been looking at new radio sets.
I've been looking at the HPI rf-45 tf-45.
I can't find much info on this set though.
Does anyone know the difference between the RTR rf-40 tf-40 and the rf-45 tf-45?
Thanks!
I'm about to be in the Memphis area for a month or two for a job and was wondering if there's any hobby shops close by that sell hpi parts. The only Hobby shop I've ever found that sold mainly hpi was in Tolleson AZ but nowhere else!!! I'll order online if I have to but I prefer brick and...
I finally finished my conversion using the Kershaw design kit and it is awesome. I'm using the hpi rf30 receiver and tf-20e TX and I cannot get the fail-safe to setup correctly for the esc.. I've tried setting it up according to the manual but it doesn't work, if I turn the TX off the truck goes...
I have been looking round at new wheels and I was wondering, are there any brands that you recommend (other than hpi themselves) because I don't want to buy some that fall apart within a few seconds!
Thanks
hi guys hopefully you can help!
Ive recently bought a hpi savage without a massive knowledge of RC in general.
The trucks range is very short 15m and it looses range. Unfortunately the throttle stuck open and flew into a fence.... fail safe is now working :bookworm: and new lower arms replaced...
Hello all, this is my first post so don't be too brutal to me please. :D
I got a used set of HPI aluminum shocks for my XS, and after rebuilding them with new shafts and seals, I found one of the spring perches was cross threaded pretty badly near the top of the shock. Any ideas on how to break...
I am very happy it does run. It is 4 cycling on full throttle and I can't seem to tune it out. I did tanks 5-8 today. It sounds like a ruptured chainsaw. It did clear out once and shift and it was awesome. Any sugestions on tuning out an Octane. Should I just be patient still and leave it alone?
Hey everyone just trying to get some knowledge on after run oil for my truck never used it before, is there something else I can use ? I have 2 stroke oil on had and car oil, should I just go get after run oil and be done with it ?
Not planing to drive the truck all winter so want to do...
Hi All, I'm kinda new to the "serious" RC world but learning fast, building a Savage X SS and can't get the HPI TF-45 radio to talk to the RF-45 receiver. So now I'm looking to get a Futuba or Saxon receiver. Will these receivers talk to my HPI TF-45 radio or do I need to get a Futuba radio too...
