Hi,

Just some updated pics of my savage conversion. I had 8 X buggy shocks on it with Nova towers then changed to LST shocks but found that I am not good enough to tune the shock setting. Just recently, I reverted back to buggy shocks with Twisted Toys Delrin shock towers & that's what you see here.

I am still running 7XL with 16/49 gearing, 5S lipo & now a Quark 125 esc. This setup is still too hard on the esc. The esc is still cutting out due to thermal overload after a few laps round the local make shift track. I am going to reduce the pinion to 15T & I have a 8XL on the way but will need to redesign the mounting bracket to accommodate it.

other than the thermal problem, the truck runs great.

Regards,
Joe Ling
