Is the motor a Neumotor 1521?
How many RPM/Volt?

Neu 1521 -- 1.5y

very nice conversion. I want some of those camo pants :)

Great Conversion, Great Video.... Them CEN GST wheels are sharp... But these are some big 1/8th scales.. Asis, they're almost as big as a 5th scale.. just change the bodies... Awesome.

Awesome.... what are your plans for this beast?

awesome build man. I've been wanting to build a 5th scale savage myself. What body you going with?

I would stick some of the savage XL stubaxles on it to widen the track width if possible, otherwise it looks rather cool- homemade chassis plates?

this truck actually 5th scale now... samsize as baja 5b... so i would say..5th savage brushless....truck

my plan: will try to get this truck run on 12S A123....
body: i might get FG truck/stadium truck

What ESC did you use?

this is my " ESC "

hi guys.. vids that show my truck runnin on 12S of A123

damn, thats some power, did i hear a stripped spur at the end?

yes u rite.. gear stripped... coz motor has got itself all rd shaft... i just did flat it a bit..so the screw can stay ... will run full throttle next weekend....

Thank you! I thought that was the ESC.(there are few 12s capable controllers)

I wondered because I saw in the video you using the brakes. They seem to work well, is that the case?

I assumed since it's an airplane ESC that the brakes would suck.

Awesome build man! Thanks for sharing.

She's got some power on 12s! You can go with 15s though, controller has enough voltage headroom to bump it up with cells at nominal volt.

u rite mate.... aircraft esc brake ' suck.... wat u see in vids...is mech brake

I did flat the motor shaft....and changed the pinion + spur gears ( 43t with 25t) ...I have just got my Savage run with 6S A123... follow is vid... will have it run on 12S next time..

at the end..spur gear stripped... bolt loose

Why are you selling the Savage?

well...just got fired...need cash only.....

by the way...last test... truck was up to 85kph.... gud enough to me....

That explains it, sorry to hear about the job, but it's a beauty of a truck and you will miss it when it's gone.
