I just got the HPI Savage XL 5.9. about 3 weeks ago.
right after break-in, just as I was starting to tune it the transmission went out. rebuilt it. and busted again. Bought a complete transmision, installed it and run one tank of fuel through it. somewhere in between all that I busted a tie-rod mount. But what was fun!
I have been out of the R/C world for about 14 years now. This is my first Nitro.
way back when, I had a few. Clodbuster, Rustler, grasshopper, hornet, rc10.
Monday I ordered another Rustler. Should be here tomorrow!
