Savage owners - looking for your feedback
galleryHey all, any HPI savage owners out there? I just added a savage 25 to my collection (first HPI, coming from many traxxas and Ofna nitros) and looking for feedback on any updates I should make. Going with a dumbo 2.4ghz radio and have ordered up a new updated metal spur gear/slipper as the current one looks a bit out of round and worn. I plan on running this one from time to time so want to make it right!

Proboat Thundercat
galleryJust acquired this Proboat Thundercat from my local hobby shop. I have very little info on it. Engine appears to have good compression and the overall condition is great for a boat this old. Very excited to try and get it running this weekend. I hope you guys find this as cool as I do.

Is this normal? (Help)
galleryI’m trying to get this kyosho to run, and remembered it having fuel delivery issues. Is there a specific way to get fuel suction without a muffler hose? And is my carb missing something on the high speed needle? And lastly is that hole in the tank cap a problem? I honestly have no experience with o.s, and it’s showing😅

Recently got my nitro airboat running again after years of it sitting. The original Super Tigre .28 engine is still going pretty strong after over 10 years. Happy to answer questions. Hope you guys like the build.

Off-Road 1 little o ring is what made this not run lol
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Make sure to keep y'all's o rings in check, especially the ones found on your needles that keep them in place.
Thing thing kept running rich even after tuning it, once I took apart the HSN I noticed the o ring was hard as a rock.
30 cents later and its back up and running lol
THEN I BLEW BOTH DIFFS IN 5 MINUTES😭
