Title: HPi Savage 5t Post by: traxxrc1 on September 15, 2010, 01:47:30 PM is it worth buying...?
i am asking this because i am already having a BAJA 5t so is it any different? and where is it available Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: mail4ajo on September 15, 2010, 09:56:37 PM Savage 5T is a 1/8 scale nitro car. It has been discontinued as far as I know. Wasnt a popular car and its life was very short.
Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: traxxrc1 on September 16, 2010, 01:31:08 PM i thought it was 1/5
but anyway its bigger than any savage i think Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: mail4ajo on September 16, 2010, 08:11:36 PM i thought it was 1/5 but anyway its bigger than any savage i think Its based on the Savage XL platform which is longer and bigger than the Savage X series. The 5T type body makes it look even bigger. 1/5 nitros may never come. Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: magarwal1 on February 17, 2011, 06:52:56 PM Hpi website says it is a Petrol powered 1/5 Scale Baja Truck. Pls correct your info.

The 1 he's talking about is Savage 5T. Nitro http://www.hpieurope.com/kit-info.php?lang=en&partNo=30108 Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: iamahuman on February 17, 2011, 07:11:51 PM Yup.From what I have read,nitros ain't good on 5th scales due the low power for the size.They go to petrol or electric(The Castle Creations Mamba XL)
Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: Siddharth on February 17, 2011, 07:36:38 PM The Savage 5T came and went so fast it was unbelievable. We got a limited number of them. It is just an XL with a extended chassis. It also included a conversion to mount Baja tyres so it would look more scale. But for some reason we still havent recd and complaints about the car yet. A couple of them run regularly at Della Adventure.
I have seen a few vidoes of the mamba, but i think its too expensive a conversion as of now, plus there are not too many people out there who have done it. I would wait a bit. Title: Re: HPi Savage 5t Post by: iamahuman on February 17, 2011, 08:00:17 PM Hell yeah its expensive.I guess the castle should not be a problem(for a select few)
