very nice mate. I am in process of getting and doing s savage x to 1717 conversion atm.

Is gunna be fun but should be good.

LOVE yo see vids of this when you get it running. Have you run the 1717 at all yet.

Interested in what batteries and run times you are getting.

How do you find the direct drive tranny?

Keen to see how these go also. Have seen the v1 wasnt much good.

I haven't tried the 1717 yet. I did try it with a 1518 before I snapped the old graphite chassis in half.

Matfew- Just a heads up the 1717 does not fit nicely in the V2 tranny. It required some machine work.

You can find the tranny here: http://kershawdesigns.com/
Just click on Savage and navagate your way to the tranny.

yeah thought you opened it up a bit more to get 1717 to fit.

Still weighing up my options atm. I know the 1717 is going to shred the tranny so deciding on what to do.

Was reading about the ofna CD also another member here done. Seems like the way to get is some sort of centre diff.
