Nice ! Does it fit on Savage X? I'm looking for a conversion kit for this one.

Yes it does. You can also purchase the rear dogbone in my store.

@dracoprecision isn't the savage X shorter? For side chassis parts
@dracoprecision 14 күн бұрын
That’s correct. I included the longer Savage XL side plates in the kit. You can purchase the kit plus the rear dogbone and then reuse your radio box to complete conversion. Then you only need esc and motor.

Thank you for the fast response. I was wondering if 2 x 3s lipos would be too much. Im trying to find the solid metal front and rear difs, even better drive axles before i pull the trigger on purchasing the conversion, but the toughness to find these parts has me a little worried. Any suggestions? Thank you again I'm in Canada @@dracoprecision
@dracoprecision 24 күн бұрын
You’re welcome. With a 1650kv motor it’s still pretty fast but not over the top like a 2200kv motor. AliExpress has some parts for your diffs plus I have diff cases available also. If you tell me what you’d like I could get the parts together for you and ship everything together if you’d like.

My 8yo son was asking me just this weekend if I still have this rig (he does not know it's a Super 5SC Flux, just knows it as my giant one). I got it second hand and I am not even sure if I got more than 8-10 packs in it total in the process of killing two ESCs. I am not sure it has been operable since he has been alive (or certainly not at an age he would have remembered it), but seemed like he wanted to get it running as a Christmas project together. Glad to see your video of it.

@@dracoprecisionI am considering it. I already was before he asked, but it was pretty far down the project wishlist. I know at minimum I will need new electronics. I think the odds/ends of getting other missing or broken pieces may be tough. I do not think it is missing much, I can only recall one of the links for the sway bars, but I would imagine there is more.
@dracoprecision 2 ай бұрын
The platform is mostly HPi Savage based except from the body mounts, front and rear bumpers, wheel hexes, TVPs, and braces. I definitely recommend upgrading electronics to something that can handle the weight. I run the Castle MMX8S on 6S with a 1650lv motor and it’s great. Send me a message if you need help sourcing some parts.

Awesome video mate as always, I think that's the first time I've ever seen you roll your car! It may be cheaper to make your own ramp man, make it so it comes apart for transport or put some wheels on it so you can push it.

This does look great, however please can you confirm if the new shocks towers can only use your standoffs? I was thinking years from now if one was lost or broken, could factory stock stand offs be used? If not then an option to buy your original towers would be good? Or is this unnecessary worrying! ?

If the diameter of the standoffs is 4mm some other ones could be used. The only issue is if the length of the standoffs is the same. Don’t worry though I always have a stock of small parts like this.
