I am also interested in which way to go.... Will be buying 2nd hand so price is not the issue.
-
+1 as per piston head. Make sure not to touch MSN. Alter idle as engine frees up and keep on the rich side. Watch temps as can get high esp with no 4 plug n 20% nitro.
-
Have you read this .......

Very jealous...... I n the daughter have been lusting after the very same beast....... We were exstatic for 10 secs when I checked the bank account,,,,,, paid and tax rebate woooooohoooooo savage an an ST truggy......... Then the wife hands me the credit card bill....... B......er!
Enjoy looks the mutts...!
-
+1 on the hump pack. Works well in the TQ.
-
As many as you require... I run the largest only on each corner and it works well for the type of stuff I do.
-
Should have got spacers for the shocks of diff sizes to add preload in the box....these go at the top of shock between spring collar and shock top...... This has sorted mine out.
-
Heard on the grape vine that nitros aren't selling so maybe some reductions in the new year!
-
Mine whine if I set them up with a little trim so when/if loose tx to car the brakes come on with fail safe.
-
Which engine as the hyper comes with a.21 and a.28. HSN next to fuel line LSN on carb slider end. MSN do not touch opposite end to carb slider. When I get home can scan and post .21 details or do search on here as plenty info about.
-
Ooh is this what I can spend my tax rebate on.......!
-
I got the Hyper 7TQ2 .21 and have to say as a first it has been good, few issues operator error LOL, starting easy, even better if heated to start, tuning easy ( Don't touch the MSN), very robust and goes like stink! Even survived submarining it and stalling it!! Don't suggest you try though.
Easy to work on and parts are very cheap if you need them......?
I am an old chap with slow reactions (hence puddle issue) and never owned RC b4.
Enjoying so much trying to decide whether to get an ST truggy or a Savage as winter basher.
-
Top vid makes me want to give it a go!
-
Great thread..... As my driving style is full lock to full lock I have never seen a need for dual rate LOL. I will now try and educate myself.
Cheers guys some good explanations.
-
Nice vid.... How do you find the scout?
-
Drive the TQ2 around the garden after cleaning to check its running ok....... Anyone complaints I start the chainsaw......!
-
Not much a crawler/rock racer, a 1/8 MT and a truggy.
-
Turned my Hyper 7 into a submarine! Thought it was a gonna but seems to run ok.... Phew!

No problem woodzy. But I think you are confusing me with someone who can drive.. The serious air was an ST truggy, I have the hyper 7 TQ (black one) and no one has ever said I get air with it LOL...! My daughter jumps here mini recon higher.
I find it difficult to get down to Robs but like to keep the LHS going also like to BS down there.
-
Welcome... You found the site then....!
Have you got the shock fixed yet... I was there when it snapped!
Probably out tomorrow if the rain holds off/stops.
There is loads a info on here for savages (they always seem to go wrong?) LOL and tuning.
-
44 in december. Are the older guys like me "its my daughters I am just running it in so I can teach her how it works" brigade
??? -
I got the TQ2 and it is a great car very robust (not very good driver, noobie and bad eyesight
) So have a tendency to hit,roll, land badly! and haven't had to fix anything YET! Engine seems very good just watch you dont move the MSN. -
2nd on the over thinking stuff...... As for the missus and a second chance good luck or do as I did and buy her something first
then they cant complain...can they?Once you take the plunge you will probably want another anyway.... I went for a hyper 7 as it was cheap and loads a spares but now I want a savage (monster truck) for the rougher places I want to bash.
I have always believed the ideal number is...what you have+1
-
Great thread Drexel.
Just makes me want to get one now but alass until my Tax is sorted haven't a pot to **** in as they say.
But patience!!!
Savage x 4.6 vs savage xl 5.9

Hear what yah saying Chasman but I sort of want a truggy n MT to go with my Buggy but to buy both new is more than I want to spend..... The alternative is to just buy a new savage X/XL?
Currently cleaning up some old RCs for a mate who owns a shop (as off my feet and sort of house bound) and just done an Hobao ST with StS engine which seems quite well looked after so was thinking get that n a 2nd hand savage. Really not sure at the mo!
Bit worried about the savage and the amount of spur/diff issues forumed on here!
Procrastination is an art form I am we'll versed in (must be my Yorkshire tight assed roots).
Cleaning a Tmaxx n the thing idles like a bar steward n runs real hot even with fuel blowing outta the exhaust......! So was it the Tmaxx engine that was suspect not that it was 2nd hand.... Just askin?
