[TheOldharleyguy57]

what upgrades other than the gears have you made. This truck is definetly in my future, tired of Traxxas's stuff breaking.

[SavageJunky]

@TheOldharleyguy57 I did allot upgrades but most of them are homemade and cost about nothing. All of them are in my guide :)

[Brollga24]

wats ya punch control

[SavageJunky]

@Brollga24 50%

[FTCoolio]

im looking for a nice Rc that can go off ramps without breaking, please give me a honest answer if this is a durable truck.

how much do you think it cost with all the upgrades and all?

[SavageJunky]

@FTCoolio As long as you land on the wheel, you will rarely break something. i"ve never try any other RC lol (I'm still new to RC world) but i can tell you that this truck, with the upgrade i suggest you, is extremely strong ... Howmany times you saw someone jumping 60ft 10 times in a row without breaking anything :) ?

With all the upgrades and battery, this truck is about 1100$... It is expensive, but it is probaly among the 3 best MT ever made !

Tx for watching and comment

@FTCoolio

Hey man got 1 of these few weeks ago had a baja 5b but this truck out lasted the bajas all i had was the battery fall out of its case and the main drive gear come loose im not goin back your call... dont get me wrong the baja is the shiz didnt like givin it up

[TheMostUnstableOne]

@FTCoolio Most durable RCs I have ever own are my savages, I have both the flux and the nitro and they are much tougher than any of my 1/8 buggies or other vehicles.

[MrSpinalColumn]

I think he means the idler gear which you can't adjust. I wore mine out too with about 10-15 battery packs and you can't set the mesh with those gears.

[chonyc77]

How often do you have to rebuild the gears? The ones that usually get eaten up in my truck are the center geers.

[SavageJunky]

@chonyc77 Witch gear exactly you break? Personally, i rarely break a gear.

[chonyc77]

@SavageJunky I ate through two gears in my center case and ate through the pinion. I now replaced the center gears and am trying out Novak pinion (19T) to see if it holds up a little better. This was all done on 2 cells and driving style is pretty careful. Other than that, this is the best/funnest RC i have ever owned/driven and its pretty much bullet proof now that i have made some upgrades.

[SavageJunky]

@chonyc77 "I ate through two gears in my center case" Usually, the drive gear break and damage nearby gear. That is why I suggest changing the drive gear as soon as you can.

"and ate through the pinion" The major reason to break or damage a pinion gear is wrong adjustment. The out of the box flux has extremely bad pinion setting. Personally, I still use the stock 20t pinion on both of my truck. I will show exactly how to install it on my Motor video. Video will be online soon.

[1234567123456able]

should i i get the savage flux hp or the vorza

[chonyc77]

@1234567123456able I think these are two different animals and are both great in their own ways. The Savage will have more ground clearance and will be able to handle heavier off road driving. The Vorza is just as amazing but lower to the ground giving it better handling (especially at higher speeds) but will be limited to where it could go at speed. I think you have to ask yourself where most of the driving will take place as well as what your driving style is and you will have your answer.

[stoowy100]

hay i have a question

i jump my savage x a lot

and so i got 2 springs and twisted them to gether and put it on the all 8 shocks is it going to break the plastic out do enything bad

im onley jumping it maybe 15-20ft

[stoowy100]

wy don't you have a like our dislike on you whould git berried in likes

[SavageJunky]

@stoowy100 A guy name 007FILBO was jealous then I won the HPI home movie 2010 and he keep load all my video with negative vote. I have no choice but to close the vote.

All I want is to show my driving skills and try to have some kind of sponsor to help me doing WAY better jumps because I am very poor for the moment.(Yes, I can do WAY better jumps then those in this video :) ).

I know that I help allot people with my how to videos. That is the most important.

Thanks for watching!

[stoowy100]

hmm i love how theres a broken nitro savage truck in the background!!

i have a savage x

with a mach 427 motor in it and it whould kill those hills not as much as yours doas i whould break it

[stoowy100]

dood i wonder how much it cost to git that good

[SavageJunky]

@stoowy100 1300$ truck (With all upgrades and batteries) +300$ spare parts. Personally, it took me like 5-6 month from first jump ever with an RC to my first perfect front to back. Many still can't correctly land front flip even after many years of bashing... I guess it depend on your skills lol . Thanks for watching

[Vidable113]

i also was wtf at the first jump!

[tytythegangster]

Pretty sick

[CorruptH3ro]

thats crazy man!

[gda882002]

man you have some sick skills come teach me oh great one!!!!!

[aquahaulic96]

great jumps man

[highlifemt]

sick jumping. I got fronts and backs dialed, but what exactly are you doing to get it all corked out like that? I want to learn, haha

[chonyc77]

Best jumper in the US! Maybe even of the 20th century...

[SavageJunky]

@chonyc77 LOL Thanks :)

[1sjirk1]

@chonyc77 I think that you mean 21th century...

[raskmck13]

i think this track is for motorbike,isn't it?



[SavageJunky]

@raskmck13 BMX track

[Geofiveo]

Great vid. Love those jumps. Curious, what kind of video editing software do you use?

[SavageJunky]

@Geofiveo Windows Movie Maker

[hbxhpikyosho]

AWESOME!!!! :D

[craigkingham1]

Great jumps buddy

[bds2710]

mad jumping - just are you at a bmx track or a mx track ? and whats you thottle punch & brakes set at ? and you are running a 20 t right ?

cool mctwist anyway keep it up and why dont you run the wheelie bar ?

[SavageJunky]

@bds2710 BMX track, I am trying to find a motocross track now :) . Punch 50% Brake 38% on 20 Pinion / 44 Spur (Stock setting). Wheelie bar is useless when jumping. I install it when I do speed run.

Thanks for watching

[CorruptH3ro]

Put a go pro on top when yoy do that !

[thedknuckles]

Thats bitchin!

[uTubeJRod]

I believe what you're doing was dubbed in skateboarding as the "McTwist" :D

Nice jumpin brotha, thats some crazy stuff you're doing!

[SavageRC1]

[MrGidi123]

[95666]

Wow nice air control!

[jondaspr]

Amazing!!!

[fluxful]

[rix4sk8]

SavageJunky is a SavageJunky SavageJunky is a SavageJunky....

nice

[Locoracers]

Awesome dude!!

[TractorKid7]

some pretty impressive driving skills! nice!

[xtremesvg]

WOW!! Steering in the air can really add a twist,,literally.

Good stuff as always.

[SavageJunky]

@xtremesvg Due to Centripetal force, steer in the air is useless. You need to fully turn the wheel when the front wheels still touch the ground. The difficulty is the timing; 1/4 sec too late and your truck don't misty 1/4 sec too early and your truck crash without jumping. That jump will be hard to master.

Thanks for watching
