    New User with Servo Question/Issue with my New Savage X

    I will let you know this weekend. My engine will be back tomorrow but will have to be broken in again due to a new piston and sleeve. Glad HPI fixed me up since I only had 3/4-1 gallon through it. I still don' t know how I messed it up because I was VERY careful and always watched temps. Ill...

    I drove it for about 1.5 hours yesterday and had no steering issues after I added the HD servo saver spring and Loc-tite and fine tuned my EPA for the steering. The truck ran perfect for about 3.5 tanks and then it started running funny. I think my HPI R5 glow plug is crisp. I purchased some...

    I thought that too but I'm running a 2500 mah 6.0v rechargeable pack that was fully charged yesterday before I ran my savage and still showed good charge after I quit running. I might try running with the alkaline batts to see if that fixes anything.

    I've been lurking for about a month since I got my Savage X 4.6. I have already got quite a few hop-ups and up graded both servo's. I am running a Hitec 7955TG for my steering and a Hitec 5565 for my throttle. I have only ran about half a gallon through it so far. It has broken in well and I...
