SmugR Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 My brushless lst2 became instantly better when I got rid of the 2spd. If you can find a way to do it, i think it would be a great solution to fit a buggy/truggy center diff, lower down in the chassis. The benefits would be considerable in terms of handling, durability and simplicity once it was all sorted. Oh and TW, shhhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the ansmann but theres also this one: http://204.186.93.64/SavageBrushlessConversion.htm But what bout this one? http://204.186.93.64/Savage-DirectDrive.htm Bear in mind i have no centre transmission, wouldnt it be better for me to just buy that? OR do i need gears out of the centre transmission for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavinc Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Bah if you sell all your cars I guarantee you would be posting on here in n months time saying I wish I hadn't sold all my cars. Roll on next Wednesday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbr6fs Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I understand why you'd be miffed at the Savage seller, no idea on what happened or even what a Post Validation is, but again if you felt you were not in the wrong i could understand you'd be miffed. End of the day though this is only a forum. It's interesting and has some great members with really useful info, but it's not the hobby. Even if the forum didn't have it's problems and was perfect in every detail, it's still only a forum and building, fixing and maintaining our cars is far farrrrr fulfilling. Be a loss to see you go as i really enjoy your builds and posts and you offer a cool calm honest and entertaining perspective in your posts, but selling all your cars that you've spent months building and buying simply because someone on here chucked their dummy out their pram just doesn't make any sense. Stick with it Cheers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
