Converted my Savage to BL finally! - RC-Monster Forums

Well here it is the green machine lol, having tire issues so only the fronts are the new ones of coarse with the new beadlocks, I have been sent the wrong version of the LST tires now 3 times! Word is tho the ones I use(original LST meats) are no more

For those running these how are you setting your slippers? If I run it locked it just wheelies constantly and is rather annoying and really needs a little slippage to tame the wheelies but the savage slipped isnt really the best out there, would be nice to see HPI come up with a HD slipper.

Been awhile!
Few things I have done since last post, got the flux tranny gear so no more jb welded gears but now I find its slower then it was before so a gear change is in order. Got a hero cam for my slash and got a mount made up to put it in the savage as well awesome cam to have for rc's! Really about it

Shes a brute now and ready to tear up some pavement.

That's the best part about conversions, feeling good about it

It feels much better to drive something you put together than to buy something RTR and go play.
