Ha ha I know Speedy, I'll upgrade whatever when in blows out.

Thanks JT!
I've only been a Savy owner for a month. I got a lot of ideas off of RCM. I made this center diff set-up modular for future arrangements. You can release the cross walls from the tvps and slide them up and down in a track. Add different cross walls and spacers for different track(s) width for different center diffs, slipper or an outrunner maybe.

I re-used the old nitro motor and old bent tvp plate for skids / doors.

Thanks for looking.

I would like to thank the wife and kids for giving me the time to work on this build.

I like it! Gets rid of the "gearbox".

Nice design, well done.

I really like the idea of ditching the legacy 'nitro' gearbox. The Flux really is built out parts that were originally designed for nitro Savages. A redesign for electric would be nice for the next iteration of the Savage\Flux and it would be great if something like this was part of it.

The batteries seem to ride a bit high, although in the first pic of them in the vid they are oriented differently and seem lower. 4s vs 6s? Probably not a great deal you do about it? At least with the standard length chassis.

What weight diff fluid are you running or is it locked?

How did you make the f/r drive shafts?
