Savage XL-E

[mohanjude]

I too converted a Savage XL to brushless. In fact I kept the 3 speed transmission and installed reverse. I expected the weak link to be the reverse. Using Mechanical brakes I can do a stoppie on the truck. I am running it on 6S with MMM and 1515 1Y. I ordered Dan's Direct Drive gearbox 6 weeks ago and he has informed that he just shipped it to the UK. Not sure if I am going to take the current setup apart until it breaks. I will post a video of the truck and maybe some pictures. I scratched my pristine stock body so many times by flipping the truck over. If you hold the throttle while the truck is accelerating during gear change it will lunge and flip over. I have now learnt to ease the throttle slightly during gear change.

The battery has been temporalily fastened on top of the frames. I intend to mount to battery trays on the side frames.
