Hello guys, New to nitro rc cars but I purchased one today and am having issues with he receiver/transmitter. Wired everything up and everything has good batteries in but the steering is coming through on the controller using the throttle up and down lever and the actually throttle on the car...

I just ordered a set of LCG extended TVPs, Savage servo plate, an extended center skid plate, savage motor plate and a set of servo mounts (along with an Alza bulkhead conversion kit.) I have looked and searched tons of threads on the Internet and can not find a list of replacement tanks to...

Hey All I hope someone can help me. I just bought my first nitro RC car and it took me awhile but I think I got the idling and all sorted. It just feels like the car takes to long to stop or even to slow down when approaching a corner. Is there anything that I can do to improve this? Thank You

I have posted this on a few other forums and just asking around to try to get as many responses as I can. Well after hours of reading tons of threads I'm still not sure what to do. I don't know if I should just Mid-Tank Mod it and get some extended TVP's and buy everything I need for prob...

I am new to the site and i am hoping someone can help me out.. I have tried alot! I am having issues starting my Savage X. I havent used it in a while and there was still a little bit of fuel in the bottom of the tank. I emptied it out and changed fuel. I am using 25%. When i try to start it a...

I had just put the steel 47 tooth spur gear on my savage x 4.6 and it are my clutch bell. I know on the hpi web site you need to use the racing clutch bells but don't know which number of teeth I should get. Which one should I get from 13-20?

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...

What do I have to do to make my lrp zr30x fit? It will not fit with the pullstart or the rotostart. It seems that it needs taller engine mounts. The back plate hits the frame before the motor gets to the mounts. Anyone know of a quick simple way to make it work? Thanks

Totaly hacked off with an f 4.6 engine just wont run right or tune got no air leaks got good back pressure good compresion did have new plug till it bernt out running 25 percent nitro will only start wen it rich basicaly factory settings so then it just cuts out as soon as u go near the trottle...

Hi, I'm sorry if this was posted I searched the forums and can't find them. I want to buy a brushless MT looking at the HPI Savage Flux vs the EMaxx Brushless. I want a truck that will be more durable and with fewer repairs. I'm going to basically run it on my home street and large backyard...

so a friend of mine wants to buy a truck, i showed him my t-maxx and he really likes it. so upon his search he has come across a hpi savage xl (used). we haven't checked it out yet,so wondering which would be better? I was comparing specs and hpi seems better,but going off manuals t-maxx is way...

hi, I recently purchased a HPI bullet ST 3.0 nitro truck. In the instructional video it talks about tuning the low speed needle but it looks like mine is blanked off... Can anyone please shed some light on this??? Thanks in advance

I recently purchased the 14t vented clutch bell (link below) and wanted to confirm the bearing size for it. I am using 5 X 10mm bearings but they seem slightly loose to me, and i do not have any 5 X 11mm around to try them out. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLST6&P=Z

After few nightmare day of trying tune the engine(with no luck) I think there is something wrong with my throttle. As you can see on the video the servo is making strange noise and its not opening the carb full. I can push it and open it full with my finger but the servo wont do that. Is the...

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and new to the Nitro RC world. I'm sure this has been asked before but I am in need of a good reliable motor to replace the HPI .25 in my savage. My local hobby shop only directed me to HPI brand motors that are a bit much than I want to spend. I do not...

Hey peeps. The 2014 has the big bore shocks made up of two springs. I believe this makes for a dual rate set up. My question is which hpi or other brand spring make for a stiffer set up. Closer to like what the raven springs do for the t maxx.

I've been busy rebuilding my savage from the ground up, finished the body, only the wheels to do next, i hate that stretched out look so I'm not going to extend the arms and all that rubbish, 1/4 offset wheels with 3.8 tyres will do the job perfect, shouldnt strain all the running gear either...

Hi, I'm being looking for some type of extended axles for my savage x 4.6 17mm hex I want to make it wider, I don't want to use the 5.9 ones any ideas thanks in advance.

Wondering what you guys use. HPI glow plugs seem on the expensive side.
