I have to admit Chris that is one of the better looking Savage Flux vehicles that I have seen. What's funny is we all have been in a similar situation as yours, putting off much needed upgrades. However I am glad that you got it in so we can see some of those HUGE bashing jumps you like to do. Good luck to you.

I am super excited for you bro! You have just transformed that Savage into a BEAST! Cant wait to hear how your first bash session goes! Thanks for the shout out!

Great upgrades Mr. Chris, I'll close to stepping into the basher world so keep theses videos coming bro, they are a great guide for us newcomers!!

I just busted my rear diff on me e-maxx this afternoon. That savage flux XL looks like it'll be my next rc. Nice video!

Your Videos are good for learning many Tricks for driving and building. Thanks bro. Greatings from Germany

Badass truck !! I've been looking at that center diff set up !! I recently bought a Kyosho chain drive setup for my next build !! A XMAXX with Vanquish XL straight axles scaled crawler !! The Gladiator X !!Traxxas is fired up about it !!Thanks for posting so many informative videos helping wondering minds EVERYDAY !! You have such a arsenal of RC's ; it really helps bashers get a feel for the rig before dropping the coin !! And if a rc can survive your relentless beatings their all good in my book !!!

Very nice! That should pretty much make it bulletproof with all the upgrades you've done

Looks great Chris

Great informative video. Good to know that Hpi will be releasing an RTR Savage.

Those are some serious upgrades man. :)

Cant wait to find out when the release date is for the Savage XL Flux. Great video, really like the channel. Thanks

Nice. I might have this truck in my future.

Great jumps you are my favorite KZfaqr

Me and my 2 little 7 and 10 nefus love your show so much Keep up the good work bro

Great video...👍🏼👍🏼

Great info!

looking good bro!

thanks for sharing this great video!

Thanks Chris. Now I want a Savage. 😄

Excelent video congratulations!! Hope they would make a center diff for the Yeti XL...that would fix lots of issues!

Nice truck bro

Might need to try these savage´s in the future, like hpi brand and i have had two 1/5 bajas.

Very nice!

love ur truck

great vid. and info. how much did all the upgrades cost btw?

I'm overwhelmed with envy, I'm really looking with the savage line up but if I ever do pick one up It will have to be the X 5.9 without a doubt. unless something else pop ups in the savage range but quite difficult at the moment as I'm putting a fair bit of money in the 5b. I'm not sure if ever heard of the savage 5T yes I said savage LOL, it was discontinued a while back. another great video.

great job on the truck Chris. maybe some FLM shock towers to go with those LST shocks?

nice vid!

Gorgeous

I didnt know that thx for the great info

Beautiful

nice vid were did you get those ramps? I need to start bashing my brushless e revo and hopefully don't break any parts!!!

Chris what a beast bro that looks beautiful everything you have done it's amazing man I've never seen another like this one you definitely got the best of everything just about but this is totally cool brother you get right up on those jump videos I love that another great video to your collection brother keep that shiny side up and that dirty side down lol yeah right huh hahhaha hahaha

How are your integy 17mm hex things holding up, i have mine installed on the xl axles to make my stance super wide, but hexs keep stripping the inside of my wheels than i lost a wheel because the damn 17mm hex came undone and i lost the small pin in there, so i think im going to go with the Hot Racing 17mm hexs

Thumbs up, Killer savage you have their, I have had my alza savage xl for about three years now, and built a second one based off the flux 2350 and have yet to blow a diff in either of my savages, I did do all three diffs with vorza diff cups, because they have a larger bearing fitted to them, which is another weak point on the stock savage, you can google vorza cup diff mod for savage, I am running the Hot bodies HBC8101-1 diff gears, but are getting hard to find. It is the alza racing dual servo plate that you were talking about, I also recently ditched the XL axles, they were the only part I was breaking... Tekno pinions or other pinions that have the m5 set screw are the way to go, least likely to back out causing the pinion to come loose. Also I am running heavy diff oils 500k center cant remember front but it is 180 to 300k, I was having problems with too much power being dumped to the front wheels, which ever wheel lifted first would pizza cutter and as soon as it touched the grouns would pull the truck in that direction, took me a while to figure it out but going thicker diff oil solved it... vid of it shooting left and right. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdKEibBjqNeoqo0.html My most recent vid, gets a hard on for the trees towards end of vid. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iJOWf5lpmbyRl3U.html

Hey man, new subscriber here. Loving the vids. Just getting into this again with my 6 yo son Jake. He is loving it. Also from Long Island although I live in ca now. I have a slash platinum edition and got him a 1/16 slash. Love all the high end and custom looking mods you have. Never seen anything like them. Going to have to check out tower hobbies. I'd love to get some advice. I'll friend you on FB and send you a message if you have time.

Great vid! Do you think it will jump the same or more like the Rival. You know how the rival tends to noise down when jumping.

hey great video! I have the alza racing center diff mod coming in the mail, what diff fluid do u recommend for front/center/rear?

Looking the dogs mate sweet

Just got into the Savage life last week. What a great build this is! How's things 2 years later? :)

Hi, can You please help me. Which robinson 11t pinion did u use, that fits stock tork 2200 motor? I see there are many 11t robinson pinions on internet, but not know which one will fit. Thanks.

Hellooo from the UK, I've been grinding you're videos lately, liking them, in fact loving them! Keep up the good work bro. I need a little help I'm converting my savage 25 nitro to electric but I don't know what motor & ESC combos are good for 1/8 trucks. My budget is from £100-£150 (145-217 dollars) any suggestions?

Dude I seriously need to get a monster truc still don't have one. Maybe ill wait for the new version of the flux!

I like savage flux. I use 4s and 5s. Replace the diffs. (Cen colossus diffs) If use Cen center diff and motor holder you can close the spur and pinion area. Put some grease inside and never broke the pinion and the spur.

PLEASE make a Losi LST XXL2E review. There is so little info about this great looking truck like, literally everything seems so good about it and yet no one has/reviews it?

can you still find a mid Vorza dif in the market? I have only seen a complete one on ebay. Non of the e-shops in europe have it.

Nice video man! I just converted my flux to xl and its awesome! I have one question, whats the name of the song? Thanks

chris i run the hpi sf32t servo which is the same as the hitec 7955g, get servo and makes the world of difference in steering. i also did a shock mod to also 4 corners to handle better and its so much better than before

awesome

Hello.I have the same alza center diff and i use it on 4s lipo,Sc8 esc-Xerun 2000kv with 13t pinion 46t spur gear. After the 15 minutes,motor,esc and cables are so hot,i can't even touch it.Do you have that kind of problem?

Nice truck- are you still jammin the Rival?

I just converted my Savage flux ho to the xl with the Hpi conversion kit,and now the truck doesn’t want to wheely anymore, it just has a strong smooth launch, witch is nice, but should I have changed the stock Savage flux hp ,pinion and spur gear too? Does the Savage flux come use a different pinion and spur?

The HPI Super 5SC Flux is 5th scale and same trany . Slitely differant gears and shafts, BUT it has a center dif. Check out the parts @Vortex Hobbies parts finder . The convertion is about $150-200. I'm doing ALZA 5B W/CC 2028 and MAMBA XL2.

I hear you bro I have x2 Savage one brushless and the other Nitro and the diffs are a pain 😒

Where did you get the plastic jumps from?

+Everyday RC - would these same upgrades be applicable to a Super 5SC Flux?

Actually I had the worlds first Savage flux XL back in 2009 using a nitro chassis first and then a short run custom chassis documented on RC Universe. I never had that center diff though, also why I sold it in 2010. This is an old video but I still have a soft spot for Savages. Where is that bash spot? Ray at trackday told me it still exists.

nice

Want to do a electric conversion on my nitro savage x not much info since a great provider passed any information? Thanks

So now you have 3 differentials.... rear , center , front ????

What about landing off throttle, does this also eat the bevel gears😎🤔

Excellent video! I have the same problem with the differential. He suspected that the center differential was the solution. Thanks for clearing my doubt. I go by the Alza racing kit!

did you have a link bro,I wanna do this as well.

If i convert my flux hp to Xl i will need another body shell?

I own 2 savage flux hp but very hard to find plastic part did you know who’s stock them 👍👍👍

Great video but the problem is you need to shimmy all the transmission, if you shimmy the transmission forget about broken parts, anyway I like your solution. I always shimmy all rotational parts, even diffs.

can you guys tell me of a a traxxas slash can use on road or is only for off road

And a lot off Informationen. :)

can I use with nitro

That ESC is no longer in any new traxxas vehicles.

Hi hi

Don't thrust finger...

nice
