**Pics of my Savage waiting for the Monster -** 04.26.2008, 07:16 PM

Got a Savage FLM conversion with my Neu 1527 motor just waiting for the Mamba Monster. I can't wait to plug in that 6S 5000mAH Flightpower and nail it.

Holy ****!!!

A 1527 will be more than nuts!! That thing will rip apart the diffs inside and out!

Any close up pictures? Does the Neu 1527 fit fine without a problem... its not too long? Please get some video once it is up and running.

The 1527 is on stilts so it fits by the look of it. Can I post some pics of mine.

I got the 1527 to go in a large scale plane, but I couldn't resist putting it in the Savage. I used hex standoffs from McMaster to lift the mount up and it fits fine. I do see a lot of broken parts in the future! It's all good though because I love wrenching as much as driving. 40 mph on Jumbo Kongs? Maybe!

I don't want to hijack the thread but here's another savage awaiting the monster. The motor ain't nearly as big though.

Looks great, Tim! LST shocks are the best.

I'll be watching this thread for a video

I didn't notice the stilts, but I thought the motor was a little high...

Would a 1521 fit without a problem... without any standoffs/stilts?

MTBikerTim - what are you using to mount the LST2/Muggy shocks? It looks like Electric Eel is using the FLM standoffs...

DRIFT_BUGGY · 04.27.2008, 04:27 PM

lol, be sure to post a vid up once going

I am using the Innovative RC mounting kit. It works well but requires the old 25 style arms.

I don't want to steal the thread either... but here are my pics. I will use the mmm combo or a Neu 1515/2D with monster max esc if I can get one...

I will mount the esc on top of the radio box on that velcro looking stuff, the balance plug you [dont] see if a cheap 3s lipo for my fan. The motor has a custom mount made out of angle stock and will be under an 80mm computer fan.

I have some cheap nimh's now, but I am hoping to get 6s2p a123 soon.

I want to see a vid of that monster truck on the top asap.

Heres a shot of my flm savvy. I was going to run a neu on 6s with the mmm, but decided an 1100kv aveox (1515 size) on 8s lipo with a cc hv85.

_paralyzed_ · 04.29.2008, 10:44 PM

linc- those cen wheels and tires? they're huge!

MTBikerTim · 04.29.2008, 11:30 PM

I think they are. I want a set of those or a set of baja 5b rears on my savage.

I tought about that one too, but with the road set they have. I looked every where for a 24mm adapter, but no luck yet. Has anyone tried to fit this http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMZG6&P=Z on a 1/8 scale? This could make a nice speed run tire http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXRMR5&P=Z.
