IT LIVES! The "What happens to a savage when you just don't care" thread

[tribbles]

If you're just going to smash them I'll have them.

[chewbacca]

This is industrial bashing on an epic scale. 

[Feedtheinferno]

Bit of bad news, storms all afternoon here so I didn't even manage to attempt a start on the savage

 

I will keep the thread updated though and hopefully get it going tomorrow based on the weather!

[oodboo]

This is the type of abuse I want to see:

Don't worry I'm sure I can top that!

 

That hyper that snaps its rear suspension support, if that was the Savage I would keep running and then bodge fix it for next time. 

 

No new parts guys!

[J.K]

Got any photos of it chap? Would be good to see what kind of condition it's in to start with then document it through its life

[Feedtheinferno]

Sure

 

Here are some from yesterday when I first got it, so they are bad photos taken with a iphone at this stage

cor blimey for

[J.K]

I agree, she doesn't look too shabby at all!

[Feedtheinferno]

Based on when I can get it running, it won't look like that much longer

[Feedtheinferno]

Right a little update, its been nice and dry this afternoon but my focus has been on my baja. 

 

However I got some time to look at the savage and I wanted to get it started. However the batteries I have for a roto start I had laying around were dead so I am currently charging them and only got a chance to change the RX to a flysky and test the servos (they all work). So the thread isn't boring I took some better pictures of the savage for you all. Wow its clean at the moment, we should have a poll on what people think will break first

 

[chewbacca]

A lower front arm. Not that I know a savvy from a revo lol.

[CyberRaver]

I wish i could take that off yours hands lol

Cant wait to see whats left

[NOFX]

The body'll break first.

[grck1]

Yep defo the body first followed by a lower arm I say. Least thats how mine went lol

[hutch]

Gonna put my money on the body I think

[oodboo]

Surely the body doesn't count as you can easy run without it. I reckon a bulkhead will be first to go if they aren't braced.

[PurcyP]

I know how you can break that Savage really easilly and blow the engine up.

 

 

You need a very high jump and a terrible landing on the motor head lol 

[Feedtheinferno]

Yeah guys body doesn't count also I will be starting it and getting the first vid (again weather permitting) on Monday afternoon so watch this space!

[xHaldenby81x]

Whenu totaly broke it can have the top battrie houseing please? Lol

[supersavage]

I think the fuel tank will crack or one of the diffs will let go.

[NOFX]

I'm gonna have to get some footage of how I beat my brushless summit & Turnigy 1/16 buggy on here, seein as there's been no action yet

[DreXeL]

If it's anything like my Savage was when I first got it (old Savage 3.5) then it'll be fuel tank, then a diff. Then a lower arm and/or bulkhead.

[Feedtheinferno]

I'm gonna have to get some footage of how I beat my brushless summit & Turnigy 1/16 buggy on here, seein as there's been no action yet

 

Well I am keeping it updated as so far have been keeping to the days I have said. I am quite busy but as said earlier in the post I will be starting and getting a video tonight. Patience its a virtue

[scrumpy jack]

First thing to break? - stripped spur gear, followed by the OWB

 

Do we win a biscuit or something if we guess right?! - If so, I'll have a jaffa cake please (if that's classed as a biscuit))
