HPI Learning Lab - Savage Diff Maintenance

[@Gcammo]

Looks like a pleasure to work on

[@TheAsianRc456]

Please make more savage maintenance video like this. It is very very helpful. Thanks

[@gonzodetroitify]

Awesome show

[@love_4_rc180]

Hi What percentage of silicone fluid, is the Stock differential oil. in diff. please let me know. thanks

[@mapledelight]

I seem to have power on the front and back drive shafts but no power from rear diff. Rear wheels do turn but not under load. Do I need to check diff by dismantling, what am I looking for ? Wouldn't mind but its only done 90mins driving with no jumps or excessive speeds. Any help appreciated.

[@TheManLab7]

I didn't learn much when it comes to what type of grease to use instead and outside AND if it's best to use silicone oil inside the diff as an upgrade. I've been really lucky over the years that I've never blown a diff up yet. But then again I've never done any stupid jumps with it.

[@rodneyjones6069]

do you have a video for the rear differential

[@tato560]

Is the the savage the using in the video a savage xl or the regular one?

[@Danholland20]

Is there a video for upgrading the savage 21 to a 3 speed/Reverse gearbox?

[@knockout35189]

So we don't have to check pinion and ring gear lash?...

[@blowenfuse]

Do you ever plan on using hex hardware on the savage models? I mean I would even buy it as an upgrade pack. Also nice video, good that your supporting your models and the RC community.

Hpi made this so easy ..Still easier than all the other cars.

How can u tell of u have a bad diff???

[@samuelzimmerman2062]

I'm guessing the rear is the same as the front? I would appreciate it if someone would confirm that.

[@AnubisPuppy]

yes it is, on every savage, doesnt matter if electric or nitro

[@iPadTex]

Bonjour, C'est quoi le nom de la musique au début de la vidéo ? svp, merci.

[@chefbeardsly]

i wish they used hex screws

[@CardNox]

Tip 1: Powertool Tip 2: Always loosen and tighten crossdiagonal / evenly Tip 3: ALWAYS shim your diffs

[@ride8ty3]

Just got this truck, its seems awesome so far.. EXCEPT... why does HPI use Philips head screws? Philips is so much easier to strip compared to hex head machine type hardware especially with a power driver. Awesome vid btw.

[@johnhighwitz3947]

For christ sake HPI buy this man a cordless screwdriver before I lose my everloving mind

[@Tonyvino95]

i was gunna wright the same thing but you commented first

[@TheRcCrawlerKing]

francis scletta me too.

[@BASSstarlet]

+John Highwitz Well, its not that wise to use electric screwdriver for screws that going into plastic.

[@TheRcCrawlerKing]

Thats why you use a 3.6v no name drill with less torque then a axial 27t.

[@puffles234]

could be that the diff oil is not thick enough or that you are leaking oil causing it to be too easy for the diff to turn.

[@mariosch2081]

for savage xl?

[@Ludde_]

for all the savages like xs, 2.4 and etc even flux too ;)

[@peraltajonathan]

It my be that your screw shaft fell out because it wasn't tight. It happened to me.

[@williamkeeling7666]

Contrary to what most like I like the Philip's head screws allows me to use on tool

[@AsurasWrath164]

And hex Hardware doesn't allow to use power tools, or what? What's that for a moronic argument?

[@_Area-51]

Savage is the best

[@sashusilver]

This is so much easier than in the e-maxx

[@RaptorVlogz]

might have the spur to tight

[@tallone09]

@keeton520 yes

[@Twizztify]

OMG you dont have to take out the hinge pins......

[@l07smitty]

Go play frisbee cause you cant handle RC
