RE: Kyosho Mini Inferno electric buggy Guidance!!
What are you looking to spend on brushless? You should probably look at upgrading the drivetrain.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
[quote]ORIGINAL: echthelion of course all cars have there flaws but my point being if another company can make solid cups why not hpi. my main reason for selling my xs was the drive line problems im sure its alot like cummins said its down to luck. but with me in 10 or so packs cant remember i had my slipper go my pinion went and took my idler with it and 2 of my center cups went. all on 2s with the castle 3800kv motor and the crap stock tires and we all know have very little grip. i was very happy with the plastic strength just not the metals but in the end we all have our own opinions[:)] [/quote] Then I must be in the lucky group because all 3 of my XS's haven't had any issue with the drivetrain like you have described..

Well I will say this about my 3 XS's, they are awesome and yes there are a few issues here and there with them but what RC doesn't have issues.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
[quote]ORIGINAL: cumminspower5.9 T9, are you talking about the tires traction slipping? Need more elaboration, or are you talking about when you hit the throttle, it has power to the gears, ad then looses ''gear grab''? [/quote] It slips in the gears, sometimes it grabs and runs fine than it will start slipping... I think I found the issue the motor shifted just a tad causing the pinion to slip and miss the spur.

I got a question for you guys... I haven't had to many issues with mine or my son's XS's.. But now there is an issue with my son's, it has full traction and then it starts slipping. Do you guys have any idea what it could be?

RE: Savage Flux not going
Don't use the "RED" loctite, if you do you won't be able to get it off. You want to use "BLUE" loctite.

RE: Savage Flux not going
Your pinion gear has moved and is not making contact with the spur gear.

[quote]ORIGINAL: Serially When i look up polycarbonate paints the testors come up and they all say lacquer on them nd other websites say they work well for rc cars [/quote] You want the POLYCARBOUNATE paint for lexan bodies, Pactra, Tamiya, Faskolor and several other companies make it.

It will work and then the first time you wreck the paint will chip off. The polycarbounate paint adheres to the lexan.

Crank the nut as tight as you can get it or use blue loctite on it.

RE: Official HPI Savage Flux XS thread...
[quote]ORIGINAL: Spudnik Is anyone having issues with your esc dropping power to the drive motor? I will be running my truck, approach a ramp, and the power will cut out. When I go to flip the truck back on to it's wheels the ESC will be making it's start up beeps. Once the ESC starts back up I can drive it again. Last point, once on the way to the truck I was able to steer the wheels before I heard the ESC beeps. Once the beeps were over I could use the driver motor and steering. Thanks for any help Spud [/quote] Sounds like you have a loose connection.
