Nothing against savages, as I won 2 of them, but I really do not think that they are the best truck for high power brushless. I prefer the lst... Bigger and stronger, better shocks and diffs. I wonder how well the flux will hold up. Especially on 6s. I do want to see how good the tranny is, as I would like to use it in my flm tranny forward savvy.

What you are going to see is the same thing that happened with the Revo conversion world. Personally, I prefer my converted Revo over an E-Revo, but mostly just because I made most of the stuff on it, and I appreciate seeing converted rigs that were made with some amount of creativity, not just purchased, or purchased and thrown together with aftermarket parts. It like you can convert a Truggy or a Buggy in an hour if you buy the parts - just not the same....!
After the E-Revo came out, its resale value dropped considerably, which you will also see with your converted Savages. I think more parts will start becoming readily available also.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
