[@zachattack2016]

i always use an engine heater and make sure it gets up to full temp, this helps the engine have better compression when its hot!

[@bassanonymous4923]

It's crazy how many people Overlook the break-in process. What I love is when someone gets a brand-new Nitro takes it straight home fills the tank and let it rip 100% full-throttle out the gate then after a month or so they're selling that same rig advertised as like new only ran a few times but needs a tune, asking damn near shelf price 😫😫. I got burnt like that so many times when I first got into the The Hobby to the point where it about ruent the Nitro side of the hobby for me so since then it's gave me a different outlook on like new used nitro's.

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! how you doing! YUP, they always claim their used nitros have 2 runs, ahah!! That's prob because they killed the motor in those 2 runs and it won't start up anymore. Makes sense! Well you know on this channel, we do things right, even if it takes me a long time, and it's not as interesting as skate park bashing vids!! This is the right way to do it!! And this savage will never DIE!! lol! more on this soon bro! thanks again for being here..

[@Fabrizio7171]

Same you live and ypu learn. Ive bought fresh builds that have had problems as well .

[@DoRC]

If you want to get an accurate reading of what the engines temperature is you'll want to take the infrared gun and stick the actual sensor, not the laser because that's not the sensor, directly into the top pointing at the glow plug. You can sit the body of the infrared gun on top of the cooling head to get it as close as possible. I think you'll find that the engine is actually running quite a bit warmer than you think it is by looking at the fins on the side

[@youtubeviewer9523]

Bro, I was just working on my nitro. Fully rebuilt shocks are smooth as butter. Gotta love a good nitro!

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! Glad to hear you're making your NITRO GREAT AGAIN!! Shocks r a priority for sure!! It'a all about that smoothness and suspension travel!!

The nicest way to present a break-in procedure on video that I"ve ever seen.Very well editing job Dmitryi!!

[@hybrid32494]

hey man! Thanks! Glad yo liked that EDITING! I tried to be very in-depth and accurate to make sure nobody accidentally kills the NEW Savage, lol! Cause you know some channels just open the box and run them, not how the NitroGang does things..

That is great to see that savage running. Definitely adding it to must have rc.

hey dude! how you doing! This is just the beginning, I am declaring this month "SAVAGE DECEMBER" that means, we gonna go CRAZY with savage videos and top speed runs!! All for the NitroGang! BTW these are in stock now, they finally came, a few people have already ordered them!!

[@Syphic001]

That new Savage is sure is nice. That body is growing on me ….Appreciate all you do for the nitro gang !

[@hybrid32494]

hey brother! Yes, the body GREW on me also. At first I wasn't sure, but it's honestly highly functional and a nice thick lean material, not flimsy like the last generation savage was. 2-SPEED Runs will be here soon!!!

[@christianwornall1047]

Hi mate I finally did it I sold my Traxxas mini e-revo vxl witch had a lot of money spent on it I did love it I got £325 for it put the money for the Savage x 4.6 yes I'm going back to nitro can't bring myself to sell my Traxxas rustler vxl because it is an absolute monster to much power 4.6 looks quick enough have a lovely Christmas 🌲🎄

[@hybrid32494]

Hey bro! how you doing! Glad to hear you're coming back to the NItroGang! But ye man, the mini e-revo VXL was a great platform, and good at everything, I used to have one too. Don't sell the rustler VXL, because then down the line you're going to find yourself trying to buy another one, lol ,trust me!! Savage 4.6 is a BEAST right! Even the old one is trully Sickening!!

[@manuelmaldonado6304]

AWESOME video! HPI are you listening?

[@hybrid32494]

The real Question is, does HPI SMELLLLLOWWW what the NItroGang is COOKING!!

[@slottygw2wvw842]

FYI when taking temps always inside the glowplug hole cavity not on sides they can vary too much :) 2 speed baby!

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! YES! you're 100% right! I actually did that a few times, didn't show it in the video due to poor clarity. But it was basically also about 150. BTW the cooling head on this thing is enormous, wasn't that easy, lol. thanks for watching bro..

[@nicksantitoro]

Even though I didn’t buy an HPI, your overview of the recommended break in process was very helpful for a beginner like me. I have heard of people heating the head during break in which doesn’t seem like it’s recommended by HPI, or by Traxxas. I will follow the method shown in this video. Thanks again.

[@hybrid32494]

Hey bro! I'm glad you found my explanation of the basic BREAK-IN conditions and requirements useful. Everybody seems to claim they know best and it gets quite confusing. What really matters are the amount of heat cycles you do. On average I do about 8 to 10 heat cycles which takes about 4 to 5 tanks of fuel, as recommended by HPI..Any questions always feel free to ask, this is what I'm here for bro!!

[@AntiHero4.6]

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! You’re my favorite RC KZbinr. I love your passion for nitros and Savages! There aren’t enough nitro lovers! Thank you for making Nitro great again! 😉

[@hybrid32494]

Thank you so much, that really means a lot to me. I know I have chosen the path less traveled in the entire RC hobby, which as you would know by now is the Nitro world. But it is worth it we love it and we will never stop burning Nitro, I still own this Savage, and it has almost never let me down.

[@rcyalater...2305]

Bro this needs to be released asap. It'll be my first rtr nitro

hey my dude! thanks for watching! I just got news that they are. IN STOCK! A few guys have already ordered them! Can't kill a nitro, they know how it is, lol! Anyways more on this thing soon, we will test it to it's TOP SPEED limits!!

[@layback209fixorsmash3]

Another great vid. Nothing like breaking in a new nitro. I cannot wait to be able to purchase these, clutch set ups, tires, 17mm hex enhancements for my Savage fleet!!! The old dirt bonez hpi tires we epic and so will these. All their stock stuff is very good.

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude! Thanks for watching! I love the break-ins too! That is where you get to learn alot about the truck and get comfortable with the starting and tuning procedures! The clutch setup and clear HD fuel lines are 100% highly recommended btw.

[@jonathanrigley981]

Been waiting for this video! Wish I could afford to add a new Savage to my collection, that price is scary!

[@hybrid32494]

hey man, thanks for watching and your support on this channel!! It's for sure not the cheapest nitro there is, but really no other competition for this style of truck, less than 2 other trucks in this sort of segment, you know. Anyways, more on this thing soon!.

[@karuuu]

Such a sick looking truck. I’ve had a short break for a bit while I focus on work and family but I’m seriously considering one of these as a Christmas present to myself. What you think?

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! How you doing!! Welcome back to the NitroGang, you might have taken a break, but the NITRO never forgot about you! LOL. Anyway, I gotta say, this truck is dope! Pricey, but really no competition to this type of design that is worth getting. PErforamce wise though it's similar to the old model, only some important tweaks.. Some guys have already ordered them from what I hear.

[@rcbrooks3543]

I told Santa that's all I want. Lol brap brap!!

[@Driver0378]

Nice to see she’s back! I like the new body, but the mirrors would be the first to go bye bye. Lol! The bumpers and the hex hardware are a nice touch too. I’m still rocking my SS K4.6 kit with numerous upgrades including the 3speed! The first was the roto start. That’s one thing they should do from the factory. Damn pull starts. Lol! Long live the Savage!

[@2259alfie]

Nice kit is there a 3 speed kit for it ?

[@hybrid32494]

hey my dude! thanks for checking out this video. There are 3-speed transmission for older style savage 4.6 models. I can almost guarantee you they will fit this model savage as well. If you want more speed I recommend you install a taller clutch bell, that will be the easiest and fastest way to get some more speed for you my dude. NitroGang!.

[@sirfelthimself6557]

I'm breaking in the LRP .28 in my savage 25 ss and it feels like 1 tank runs forever

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! May the NitroGang spirit of the BREAK IN be with you! lol.. And yes, the single tank of fuel will take forever bro, you already know! BTW I normally do 1/2 to 1/3 tank per heat cycle.

[@michaelwhitham4501]

Great channel matey,now subbed.had loads of hpi cars back in the early 2ks and decided to pick up a cheap savage x rtr to fix up and get back into some nitro Rc bashing. Do you think these bumpers will fit on the older savages ? All hail the nitro 😁

[@chrisryder4709]

They say my Savage is on the way , tracking isn't showing it though , CRRRRRAAP !! Can't wait ! Great info ! Thanx !

[@hybrid32494]

oh hell yes bro!! Yes, the new Savage is IN STOCK NOW! I already know a couple guys who ordered one!! Sickening!!! But yes, the tracking from HRP usually does that, but their shipping is FAST, no need to worry! It's on the way my dude! NItrogang!

[@Hemihart]

Why is the rear body mount so high? They made the body shell sit WAY higher than the rear bumper. So there another mount to make the body more level with the front? Anyway, I've been looking forward to this video, thanks for the great content, Hybrid!

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! Good observation there. Turns out I did not raise the front body mount when recording this video, I have since raised it ONE notch, but there are 2 more position left to raise if needed. Since I installed the HEAD protector it came with a different rear body post, so that explains it. NItroGang! Thanks for watching dude, more on this truck soon.

Hey bro! how you doing! Glad you appreciated this video, I tried my best to ensure people have the RIGHT information on these, and dont try to kill them! Unfortunately right now KZbin is once again trying to kill my shirt designs, I'm fighting them again. There is a link here under the video, but SMALL is the smallest you could get.

[@rcshowoff5427]

Great run down on the Instruction book break in process. The new style body I think is nice. For me the only down fall is it doesn't come with the Roto Start especially with the higher price tag. Great video! See ya on the next live stream.

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! How you doing! Yes! I'm glad you liked the HPI manual info, nothing like reading a nitro manual lol. Brings me back!! To be honest with you the pull-start is super easy and I'm kinda INTO it. Never gotta worry about forget the ROTO-start or a dead battery ,you know.

[@johncardwell3119]

I meant handle the r36 force engine thanks

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! Thanks for watching, and great question! So the Force R36 is the same displacement as the HPI K5.9 engine, used in the XL models. I dont see why you would have any problems. It all comes down to how hard you bash it, and how heavy your throttle finger is, lol. . The stock pipe is fine, if you want a metal one, it's totally possible, but this one is already a duel chamber tuned pipe. The fact that it's a composite material is meaningless really. More vids on this soon bro!! NitroGang!

[@transgenderadeptasororitas1594]

Bit of interesting info, the wright brothers relied on a pair of two horsepower engines for their earliest prototypes, fun thought as you use three horsepower to run an rc monstertruck

[@mojarnugget]

Hello! When the spark plug dies out, which one would you recommend for this engine? R5? Thanks!

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! yes the R5 is fine, but check out the A8 plug, it's cheaper and still a good short body medium heat range plug. I've run even the traxxas plugs in many other nitros, all similar.

[@hybrid32494]

hey buddy! How you doing! Thanks for watching! I have since adjusted the way the body sits a little bit. This truck has adjustable body posts so you can somewhat control that. In this video it was just positioned in that way, also I installed the rear roll cage - Head protector so that caused a slight adjustment to the rear of the body position too.

15% is usually recommended with special break in fuel. Comes with more additives and oils for proper lubrication break in. How do you compare it to the kyosho 3 speed ?

[@hybrid32494]

hey bro! thanks for checking out the most SICKENING new truck of 2021 bro! Anyway, about the break in, did you see all that EXCESS oil I had at the end coming from the pipe?? that was tons of oil, I really dont think you need more oil than that for a normal break in period on a engine of this sort. Anyway, what matters is not overheating and doing a good amount of heat cycles, these basics apply to all nitro motors. I'll be comparing it to the USA-1 soon. Right now it's all about the savage!!!

[@mattster197]

Its a lot of plastic bro. Plastic shocks, on something that big? they call it Nylon to try an church it up. Do you smell what I am cooking? Smells like plastic. When its cooler like now you should wrap the head in tin foil or a rag to allow it to heat up to the correct cycle temp. You want to get over 200.
