    Nitro fuel UK

    Right then people, my local hobby store only sells “model technics” fuel and that duraglow blend I think it is. As it’s all that they do that’s what I had been using for a couple of years in my 2 sav’s and seems to run fine no issues. Just got a new buggy and thought I would maybe look into the...

    Axial 32 engine, pull start or rota start needed

    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...

    i Know hpi are a bit up and down and not actually sure what they are doing at the moment but does anybody know if they are still even making parts as over just the space of a year some parts have become near on impossible to find in the UK and having to order from abroad becomes expensive.

I cannot get them to lock on and stop properly, I’ve adjusted it on the arm up by the servo yet the brakes still don't fully lock on and stop the truck. I also just applied a bit of...

    Race wheel setup for Savage 25

    Hey people. I am wanting to get some tarmac action with my old savage 25 and have been looking at wheels and tyres here in the UK, and in the old 14mm hex setup, they are pretty scarce. I am not sure what size wheels and tyres I can use, just what is stock on it, and I know they have to be 14mm...

    Time to replace my HPI Savage 25 Replacement Engine??

    I've spent the last couple of weeks trying to get my Savage 25 started after letting it sit for 5 years. I took the rotostart back plate off to clean the crude buildup. I was able to start the engine....only to run for 20-30 seconds. However, I was unable to turn the engine over with my hand...

    Hi All, I have a Savage 25, which I would like to convert to brushless. I have a Mamba Monster 2 ESC and motor setup which was in my upgraded E-Maxx. But since I snapped the chassis on the E-Maxx, I would like to put it in the Savage. So I have seen a few ideas online, such as the Kershaw...

    Savage 25 carb/engine connection

    Hi all, I am fairly new to the R/C world but was given a Savage 25 by a co-worker a couple of years ago with a suspension problem. I fixed that issue and drove it quite a bit. It ran really well and was a lot of fun. Last year I took the carb off to clean it out and once I put it all back...

    Savage S-25 engine hard to start when warm

    I know I've seen this thread somewhere, but I can't find it. So sorry about that. But well,title says it all. It coughs and fires but it's kind of a pain to get it to actually start. I know I'm using a drill to start it, and drills "don't spin fast enough", but if it can start it cold easier...

    S-25 wont rev?

    I took out my savage 25 (S-25 engine) for the first run this summer and at first it seemed fine. After about 1/2 tank it started to really struggle revving up to max rpm. It seemed like it would stop around 20k or so, so still a while to go. It would get to high first and into second but then...
