Not really sure if spinning the motor too fast was why the compression was lost so quick but I guess it isn't a good thing when you are turning it over for over a minute and the engine doesn't start. I didn't know better a few years ago ;)
The Savage is my first nitro... who knows what I have done wrong!
The plan is to work out the kinks before I spend cash on a Picco... Or maybe just forget it all together for a conversion. Just need the battery prices to come down and the Mah to double.
