Hello everyone, I'm the new guy here. I bought myself a used Savage x 4.6 nitro. Its my first nitro and I have learned a great deal about nitros in the meantime after getting my hands on it. Since this is not a popular hobby around here (United Arab Emirates) I don't really have much support available or much luck with just 2 authorized HPI LSH here. They charge a huge bomb for smallest of work and parts are ridiculously expensive. Hence I am going to rely on you guys for tips, help, part selections and where to purchase them and if so, a comprenhesive guide to install them, vids being the best of them
I have already been through lots and lots of post but I thought I'd ask regardless just to be on the safe side.
I plan to abuse my savage as much as I can (stress relief) and It shall mostly be on desert sand and some hard ground. I have taken it for a few rounds out in the sand and it gets really dirty with all the sand all over the body.
So my question is, what do I have to keep in mind to maintain a savage that runs mostly on desert sand?
Also, what upgrades would you suggest for me to get and where can I get them? ( No LSH please, they arent really that helpful because of this hobby not being as widespread as where you may live. There are literally no track here anywhere that I even know of)
I know for one I need to do something about the airfilter as sand ruins the mill. I have to clean it after every single run.
Also, since its my first nitro and its a used one. You people are more than welcome to ask me questions about it to get to know my rig more for better help, tips etc. I have mostly learning tuining and I believe i have done good so far from only 2 runs I have been able to make so far cuz something or the other had to stop working and I had to dent my wallet for simple replacement cuz idk the know how.
Thank you
