[RC-NUT]

Hey guys I haven't been on the forum in a while so I thought I would share some updates. My savage started as a Nitro .25 SS kit. Here is what I have changed since the last time I posted.

1. Sold the CC 1717 and bought a CC 1520.
2. Sold the Kershaw Gen 2 tranny.
3. Added a Center diff and CVD's from a LOSI Muggy.
4. Swapped the OEM shocks for LOSI LST shocks.
5. Swapped the aluminum upper & lower arms for RPM.
6. Added a 300 in/oz servo.
7. Sold the roll cage.

Driving impressions:
Good: The center diff is nice. I have more control and the shocks give it a lower center of gravity. The 1520 has stupid power but it's usable power. I didn't care for the 1717. It's amazing to watch a 14lb truck do 35+ mph and then rip a wheelie and the front tires look like frizbees.

Bad: It cogs pretty bad. I tried a 1518 and a 1520 and the 1520 is worse. I lowered the gearing and played with the software but no luck. The pinion gear falls off with every run regardless of thread lock. It still wheelies like crazy but that's on 6s. I played with the throttle curve and now the front end only comes up over 90% throttle.
