HPI Savage 4.6 after gearbox upgrade

[tert]

Did some upgrades to my gearbox of the HPI Savage 4.6. Since it originally is a HPI Savage 21 some of the parts inside the gearbox was out of plastic and worn out. Due to this it wouldn`t change to 2nd gear.

I ended up replacing the plastic parts with some aluminium ones and this is the first run after this upgrade. May have to do some readjustments of the shift point but besides from this it is running great.

Some running footage.

These wheels and tires are my favorite, can't remember brand, but are awsome for on road and off road, about 80.00

Look good. Have you tried them offroad yet?

 

[J.LO's SAVAGE X]

No, but should do decent in dirt

On a track, been breaking in new picco .28 boost with them on pavement. cant turn too sharp , wants to flip its like being on rails

They spin a lot in grass. Can't imagine they hook up well on dirt at all. Lots of traction rolls on pavement though.

I have a set on my OS21TM revo. I got them so I'd have something that works well for grass, but doesn't get eaten up when running on concrete, since I spend a decent amount of time running in a skate park. I have 3.8" traxxas chevrons on my other 2 rigs for this same reason, just tried these for something different.

yeah. I think they ll be best on concrete. I thought they looked cool and I didn't have any thing that was firm or any kind of on road tires, thought they would be something that would work on and maybe a little off road.

Would be nice if they had them on 1/2" offset rims vs what the offset is on the ones they do have.
