HPI 5SC Flux 1/5 Scale Savage Based RTR

[TexasSP]

Anyone seen this?

I guess if weight is low enough and with 6s only the MMM/2200 setup should be okay. I would have preferred the 1717 though.

Still cool and right at 1k.

It's written that it has a savage drivetrain AND a center diff. It looks like a savage tranny/motor mount setup. Did they stuff a center diff in a savage tranny?

I'd take a 5ive-T with a 2028 over this

Looks good though.

To me it seems underpowered for its size, also looks like a nightmare to work on.

does anyone have an first hand experience with this?

How much of a difference is this from doing say a Savage Flux conversion with the TCS parts?

I think they're going to have lots of problems with the MMM/2200 system in this thing, since it weighs 21lbs with batteries according to this guy:

Since it weight a lot more and is using the same motor as the savag flux hp they must have geared it down.
Dont think it will be underpowered though.

If its got a center diff, there will lots of happy savage flux owners out there, myself included. It would be perfect for my flux XL
