NEW E-Savage!!!

I wanted to start a new project and have never had a savage. What do you guys think.?

It would be easy to convert over to brushless, yes?

I've always had Traxxas, mostly Revo's. Is there a better brand than the stock savage shocks to go with? I always see the shocks getting stretched or blown some how.

It's an E-Zilla with a new shell.

Nothing like a savage.

mwe-maxxowner 10.19.2006 04:24 PM

Nothing like an e-maxx either.

There basically HPI's attempt at making a fast buck...A $h*tty attempt at that...

I said it before...

E(X)-ZILLA

I'm curious why HPI took such a crappy (IMO) design when they could have made a real E-Savage using the original Savage X and turned it to electric.

...Gee then i PROBABLY shouldnt tell you that I own and operate E-Savage.com...That might make all SORTS of people angry :D LOL...

...My truck runs on a Mamba Max and a Feigao 9L...Does very well and never breaks...well the odd c-hub when you screw up but that happens ;)

Well, HPI needs something that will break faster.... so this is why they did this..

Most of the hobby shop in my area hardly ever carry any savage parts.... I ask why, he said " there are no demands for these parts"..... the original savage is an awesome truck.... it couldn't be any worse that an E-maxx 2.5?.. right?.. :)

mwe-maxxowner 10.27.2006 01:35 PM

I wonder what is so wrong with the e-maxx 2.5? And I'm wondering when it was upgraded to a 3.3, to warrant it being termed the 2.5 lol?

I think your truck looks nice.

aqwut 10.27.2006 08:24 PM

the truck does look nice dude....

How about the diffs on the e-savage? they are from a 1/18th scale, right? LOL

BitHed 10.30.2006 12:16 AM

...no it doesnt actually HAVE diffs...There are these little rubber bands that run from front to rear and left to right...we just wind them up, put the truck on the ground, let it go and just chase it around until it runs out of 'go' :P
