HPI: Savage Flux on the way? 8th scale electric savage

[Nuclear]

in terms of size and dimensions, is the FLUX the same size as the Savage XL? the bigger MT?

I'm not too familiar with MT's yet, but which will be more durable, the E-Revo or this new FLUX?

i already know that the E-Revo will out handle this HPI, I'm more for bashing....

The Savage Flux HP is the same size as the Savage X. (It's based on the same platform)

As for durability, I do own an E-Revo and in stock form it wasn't perfectly durable. I broke a few tie rods and two a-arms. Then I upgraded to RPM (Tru-Track in the back, A-Arms in the front) and I haven't broken a thing since. Even with a MMM/Neu combo in it.

That said, I think the Savage will be a little more durable stock than the stock E-Revo, but with either one I'd recommend upgrading to RPM A-Arms for maximum durability.

And I agree on the handling thing. The E-Revo is by far the best handling MT I've ever driven, especially with some tweaks (Different Springs and sway bars) but the Savage is without question a phenomenal bashing machine. I plan to get a Savage Flux HP for bashing and tune my E-Revo solely for racing.
