Horatio's Savage SS Build 2004 - 2025

So this arrived from the US on Tuesday morning. This will free up an AGF 81BHMW from another rig, and I think it should be fitted to the Savage! 🤩

I had debated about keeping the Savage SS true to it's vintage running gear, but why not give it a modern twist. These modern servos are so strong and waterproof - it has to make sense.

Plus, the old 5945 will go on throttle duty, replacing the old 645, giving faster response and 50% stronger braking force. It has to be done! 🤩

What’s the spec @ 6v with your new servo mate?

The AGF 81BHMW is 34kg torque and 0.11 sec/60° on 6v.

On 8.4v - it's 45kg and 0.08 sec/60°!! 😎
