HPI 5SC Flux 1/5 Scale Savage Based RTR
 

Anyone seen this?

I guess if weight is low enough and with 6s only the MMM/2200 setup should be okay. I would have preferred the 1717 though.

Still cool and right at 1k.

It's written that it has a savage drivetrain AND a center diff. It looks like a savage tranny/motor mount setup. Did they stuff a center diff in a savage tranny?

I'd take a 5ive-T with a 2028 over this:yes:

Looks good though.

To me it seems underpowered for its size, also looks like a nightmare to work on.

does anyone have an first hand experience with this?

How much of a difference is this from doing say a Savage Flux conversion with the TCS parts?

I think they're going to have lots of problems with the MMM/2200 system in this thing, since it weighs 21lbs :surprised: with batteries according to this guy:

Since it weight a lot more and is using the same motor as the savag flux hp they must have geared it down.
Dont think it will be underpowered though.

If its got a center diff, there will lots of happy savage flux owners out there, myself included. It would be perfect for my flux XL

So does this have a center diff?

From supplied link in OP :oops:

yes it does.

Hey Cain, How ya ben ?

Anyone figured out how to put one in a Savage yet?

Yes.

Any links?

Good man and you?

Doing a 5th savage conversion using the Alza Racing stuff. Looks good. Excited to give it a go.
