Here is an updated shot of the conversion. Switched to the Baja 5B wing; the mounting holes are a prefect fit for the Savage body mounts.
Also are the ProLine Bowtie front/rear Baja 5B tires and wheels. Currently am using ProLine 23mm hex adapters wrapped with metal tape until snug in the wheels. If you go this route (24mm hex adapters from HPI are still backordered) you need some M5 lock nuts (HPI #Z682 lock nuts the 14mm hexes work great; I used some flanged M5 lock nuts I had laying around from Traxxas) to secure the adapter onto the axle.
Total weight fully loaded is now 16.4lbs.
