Thunderwolf Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 lets save a bit of time, most people will say the savvy 4.6 for future reference, don't start these types of topics as it will all ways be the same answer. look to see if there is a topic like or similar to this. Thank You Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waz Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Dude I'd say go for the Revo. Much friendlyier to a beginner and overall a better truck than the savage. It has less power, but it will still stun you if you are a noob, and it will be alot more controllable leading to less breakages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bam911 Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 i aint 100 percent a noob the last truck i owned was a traxxas rustler .15 about 2 years ago wasnt a bad truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_TiGGer Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 (edited) i aint 100 percent a noob the last truck i owned was a traxxas rustler .15 about 2 years ago wasnt a bad truck ← Similar to my Nitro sport I had .... more alloy on yours though, trust me the Revo is nothing like it you'll be laughing like a loon But the savvy is a good truck but about 20% heavier, and it shows when you get it outta shape at high speed. As always each to their own, I got the chance to see & drive both before I chose my Revo. Also I'll agree with Waz when talking about the 4.6 savvy, that's an extreme amount of power for a noob to Monster trucks as opposed to a Stadium truck like a Rustler. If Savvy is what you finally settle on, I'd personally recommend the 25, in the same power to weight ratio as the Revo and you'll spend less time sweeping your truck into a binbag. BTW I only use Tornado 25% but O'Donnels is the same quality I understand Grrr:-) Edited September 13, 2005 by MR_TiGGer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waz Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Actually me, I reccomend the 4.6 or no savvy at all because by the time you've got a savvy 25 upto 4.6 spec you'd have spend alot more money but the most important factor is that the 4.6 comes as a kit. You learn an immense amount from building the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screamer17 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 If you wanna bash = Savage, If you wanna race = Revo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderwolf Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 get a savage ss kit, not as powerful as the 4.6 but you still get the making part of it. and its cheaper. all the savvys are basicly the same, so it doesn't realy matter what you get. but if you are planing to race get a revo as screamer said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bam911 Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 ill go for the 4.6 i think as i have no worries in building it wots the best radio for it and hump pack or dosnt it matter that much thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waz Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 People please stop giving out bad advise it annoys me greatly. The Savage SS without engine will be very difficult to get hold of as it has been discontinued for almost a year now. Every Savage kit is a SS, or super sport, not just that one. The 4.6 is the kit you want to go for mate. Oh, and thundersaurus stop spamming, also very annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodge Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Love seeing the arguments for both trucks in this kind of topic. It looks like you are going for the savvvy so I wont bother with the truck part. As for the radio, may I suggest you look at the Spekrum radio system, Doesn't look like many on here have one but all the reviews I have read says it is a really good system and cheep too. Plus you needn't bother about crystals with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderwolf Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Oh, and thundersaurus stop spamming, also very annoying. ← out of 15 forums this is the only one that says this. and as i have said before i don't know what it means, useless posts isn't very informing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi I recently bought the savage ss4.6 and this radio both are great , the only thin with the radio is yes price wise its good, but if you want to run a second model from it another RX alone seemed very expensive at around £70, but it is a cool radio Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitromotorhead Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 The spectrum radio gear is definitely worth getting, if your budget can stretch to it. All things considering, it’s not that expensive when you take into account that it has a built in fail safe, and you don’t need to buy any crystals to change frequency. Or you could buy the Hitec Aggressor SRX, and upgrade to DSM with that radio later. As for the choice of truck, naturally Id recommend the Savage 4.6 Half the reason I chose the savage was purely because I liked the look of it, and the other half, I opted for the ss.4.6 kit for the performance/specification.
