Savage XL Savage XL Savage 25 Savage X
K5.9, K5.9 Nosram Evo (Light Blue Shell) and a Ported and Polished S-25.
All fitted with IANS RC SPARES (ebay uk) SAVFLOW Fuel Tank Header system to stop the Half Tank Lean issue. - Works a Treat ! - Zábava
Watching this in 2021 is crazy. This hobby has advanced in technology immensely over the years.
No joke
Sadly it caused Nitros to nearly go extinct. Luckily HPI still makes them.
Wow! We bought our son an hpi Savage 21 when they first started being sold in Halfords many years ago. Some years as part of his Christmas presents there would be an up grade of some kind (reversing gears, new springs, steering servo etc and we would sit and take the truck apart and then go out and run it). Still have the truck sitting in my garage and now with a .46 engine but man, hats off to you if you are still running gas these days (i realise your video is over 10 years old) as that noise and all the hassle getting it running is something I dont miss! Its probably the noise that puts me off using it where i live and i have been very tempted to convert it to electric like our RC planes.
Anyway, stumbled across this great video and it brought back memories. Thanks.
I think they sound cool 😅
deam for 2009 very good quality and edit
Soon as the music started to play I knew I was going to like this vid! Like the trucks too! Post more vids!!
I still wish HPI and nitros in general were this popular.
this is one of my favorite all time videos! 😁😁
Great family fun for all glad to see smiles and Hobby's great video you aperently know what you are doing with those little trucks
I don't know why but this video feels like watching the blue peter special of RC 'bashing'
Thanks ! - great track Some tricky little Jumps - Jumping from track to track with the trucks was good fun !!
Plus it works a treat when your trucks upside down, has a clunk weight tube inside the tank that follows the fuel. (just like in a heli or RC Plane etc.) So now you don't have to "leg it" Quite so fast to right your truck. ( in fact it will run for about 2mins upside down!). You can buy the SavFlow Kit from Ian's RC - Ebay UK - Search for SavFlow.
Awesome video but I was honestly a little surprised to see someone without a pistol grip for a truck. Cool!
Driving skills, jumpsing skills, video editing skills. You got a lot of skillz Bro! :O) Great Vid!
Actually a really good video
Nice bashing. Sweet video lads ❤️😎
Thanks for the good feedback !!! I like the IRC kit on your sav. Just got my self one of those kits but with IRC Big bore shocks. Prob appear in next times video - if we make another !. :-)
great mod, great video editing! You guys did a marvelous job on this! I must do this to my ss when I get it running proper :)
you all probably dont care but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly lost my login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
@Kevin Boone Instablaster ;)
@Jesiah Quincy I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm.
Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Jesiah Quincy It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my ass :D
@Kevin Boone you are welcome xD
Hi - Ian's been great on supplying stuff to me for the past year. ! Glad to hear your pleased anyway.
he gots his whole garage with him funny shit
You can also foam tape the washers to the underside of the body to make things easier.
nice driving nic, good vid thanks
Seems like a lot of trouble to fill the nitro. just get a quick fill bottle, and squeeze it in.
nice vid mate!
Pretty cool set up!
awesome video!
brilliant video can't beat dust bashing. i do high speed runs with my cen ct5 proper flying machine too
Great vid
Very good video hard to bleave the years ago are you still running the savage?
It really helps when you showed ho to pump the fuel
Nice vid. I am looking to get into Nitro R/C and have never been satisfied with getting beginner models and I have been looking into the Savage XL mainly because of its size and the Savages durability. You seem be good with these and I was wondering if after I buy the truck itself is there anything else you would recommend buying afterwards? I am just trying to make sure I don't get hit with any extra expenses that I don't know about besides fuel, broken parts, and batteries for the receiver.
Can't wait to get one
Got Cypress HIll!! 👍👍 Monster Bashing!!! Damn!!
i just got a savage and what a savage it is lol foooking beast :)
Yall enjoy them together. Rite on, Rite on. Two thumbs up.
turn the dial on the long stem counter clockwise to make it richer if you want more smoke(and more lubrication) to occur.
Love this song
Hi
Great video. What would you recommend as a throttle servo? Ive had my savage xl 2 weeks and had loads of problems with things breaking and things falling off the other being a faulty servo. I will upgrade the steering servo to the 7955TG
And what kind a transmitter are you using this ant no airplane
Great choice of music, makes me want to drive my buggy
Never seen a temp check!!! Very critical step
Just subbed, nice vid!
Hi there. I do like the savage from HPI, its a tough little fella !. That s why i have gone the direction of the Savage Flux this year. I am moving to Brushless, Alas my fun with nitro is now over, and new technology takes over.
Also gone 2.4ghz - which i know i'm a bit late but is way better for glitch free operation. - Currently Converting the new Savage flux's to super tough Flux XL's. All fun !
Verdade
Nice jumps!
Hi there - A header tank is a method of sustaining a smooth supply of fuel to a nitro engine. Used on RC helicopters for a while now. The savage is known for a "Half tank Lean" Problem. The surface area of the fuel in the tank greatly reduces as it hits that lip or "hump" thats sits over the Side of the chassis. When the fuel surface area reduces so does the applied pressure per/cm2 hence the fuel starts to slow slightly to the carb, changing your mixture to lean.
nice, stumbled over this while looking for a new hump pack as i have just pulled my original savage 25 out the garage today to see if it would go. Where else do you jump.
Have you checked your clutch springs ? To little tension (weak springs) allows them to fly outward at low RPM and engage to clutch bell walls to early. I once had the same issue, just replace them and try again. Hope this helps.
nice bit of starting kit =] .i've the the savage 3.5 currently in peices becasue the engine is being a crafty fella and not wanting to start i think i;ve cleaned it out but not 100% sure any tips on how to get the perfect start every time?
Like the cars mate hmmm i need to get mine started
If there was every a professional basher, it would be you. XD
5:01 for the start.
My Hpi Savage was stolen 2 years ago, this video makes me miss it haa
nice driving. i subbed! are those stock springs or standard savage?
Nice trucks, and are you in Luton?
This is why I like brushless lipo. All that to just start running. But there is something about hearing that motor.
It doesn't have to be that complicated he just has a lot of stuff
this guy is a wanna be pro
I was thinking the same thing like wtf who uses a actual pump just use a normal gas tank and bottle
that pump set up is what nitro heli and nitro airplanes use. it's pretty nice. what I really like about it is the large battery that's used for the electric pump and the glow plug. I always hated the little hand held glow plug things. seemed to always be dead. I went weeks and weeks without charging the 6 or 12 volt batt
dude its an RC car. Its a hobby and if you really get that buthurt it takes that long you don't deserve to be in the hobby
good video:)!
Hi - it makes the engine run hotter and hotter, less lubrication as more air content in the Air and Fuel mix. My savs tend to start to splutter and can start to rise in RPM. If not kept in check then you shorten the life of the engine big style.
So one idea is to run the engine slightly rich or boggy for the first half then it kinda evens out later half of tank.
Harder to manage this solution than you think as i found out - where as this little tank just fixes the problem nicely !.
Whats the fueling system and the glow plug thing Called cause i want to look into getting one ? Cause I have the Savage X 4.6 big block
Hi James,long time no see is the track still there at Harthill
if you come back and see the comments is the GS UXT RIR 1/8th nitro good. that car looks very fast
OMG Brilliant, my little lock on's for the body are impossible to get off ill put string on them. thanks
Blimey... Seems a lot of messing around? What happened to just filling it up, sticking a glow starter in and BOOM off you go?
cool fuel pump system
i need help on idle speeds, i turn the idle screw down, the wheels slow down, but still spin, i keep turning then the rpm is so low it cuts out, is idle meant to be the wheels turn, but not to fast? or have i a problem? thanks
Could be many things but ....Maybe check, your tuning ? Air leaks around carb ? Need a bit more info really before i can input. Does it shut off at high revs? Does it not start ? Does it not idle ....???
oh yes, thats near my mums, im looking for places to bash a blitz (not the same level as the savages, but im skint haha). not many places in york, but its good to know i have somewhere when i visit! you local?
Get about an extra 5 mins if you empty the header tank- but i never run down the header tank (or try not too) . The idea is to keep the header topped up to keep the thing running even and consistent. Handy if you flip the truck on its back 50 yards out!
The half tank spare is for half tank lean issues? Somebody explain
nice video
Where you from mate? Im in Birmingham and im looking for some new bashing spots :)
lol id be half way through my first pack by the time you got your truck started...XD
im not a hater.. i used to own a savage xl..now i run brushless.
I don't get the whole automated fueling system. In the amount of time it took to get all setup, I've already got my truck fueled with just a bottle and it's already started.
Where you get fuel tank on rear? What’s the type of tank called
You have to watch this video woth Automatic Captions. It's one of the funiest things ever.
ok, it starts, idles and it dosent stop at high speed, could it be the low speed needle?
is this harthill in scotland?
ok ive check that out!!! :-P thanx
whats the servo Model of Hitech ?
Yea the IRC kit and LST shocks are nice but VERY heavy, iv just ordered the HPI alum big bores and im selling the IRC kit and shocks, hard ano threaded bodies, TiNi shafts etc
nice !
How do u keep your cars so clean my cars I drive in dirt and I can't keep them clean
it's called soap
I mean less fuel in the mix due to lower back pressure - hence more air to fuel ratio - Got there !
except for the twin plate length and dog bone length, yes, only some cosmetic changes b/w .21 and .25 and, except what is stated above the XL. i have all 3 cars- check out my videos.
Hi. Whats the model number of the pump panel system? Thanks
does any one know if all savage parts will fit on a savage 21
What fuel are you using? :)
Guy's nice rc car how much one of these ?
I want get one of the rc car ?
legal esse vídeo do
That system is pointless
Ye just do it like normal
I agree took ten minutes to squirting fuel in the tank lol.
What's easier than opening the cap and pouring it in the tank ?
Well I guess undoing fuel lines,turning on pumps,reassembly, etc etc yeah makes sense lol
Jump around.Funny.

Hi how are u i love yr videos
Tight
That's just a confusing setup standard you start and go
Smh wow video seems like it was made in early 80's with the technology shown in it !!
🔝 top meu sonho
4.6 is alot easier to start up...and 5.9 doesnt hold its tune very well....i recommend the 4.6 for beginners and the 5.9 for advanced...depends what skill u have with tuning
Which fuel is this
what"s the name of the song at the begging??
?
ive got an savage xss, and when i start it up and speed, it shuts off!! anyone got a clue?? please thanx!! :-)
what songs were used?
shes a better driver then him! lol awesome vid
