Pulled the Savage XS tranny/motor out. Was sounding like it was MOD1 vs. 48p gearing. Looks like the motor is jacked. Turns literally like a 12turn vs. smooth and tight like a normal brushless motor. Hopefully HPI will replace it.

Front diff ring gear lost a few teeth this weekend in the XS. Opened it up-no grease at all-back looks like it got a double shot. Go figure. Also broke a shock top.  Time for some upgrades. This thing is pretty stable even on 3s and super fast. Still have the assinine sound from the tranny/motor and have a new motor on the way. Going to tear everything down hopefully tonight. May even get into the Flux too. Anyone know of a good bashing spot for 1/8 scale? Worked on this a good bit (the RC's were a break):  |

Jeep looks nice! I'm itching to do some mods to mine. I got a deal on a winch the other day, looking into a bumper now  I took the rusty and the slider out on the street for a little bashing since the weather was SO NICE |

Jeep has been a long time coming but fortunately a good friend knows his stuff. He's also into RC's. Has anything from 1/8 revo to some micro crawlers. We wrench or weld for a while then take a brake and mostly do speed runs on the street where the pic was taken. |

Yep, got a killer deal on a 12k HD warn powerplant  12K is overkill but, I really like the fact that it has an air compressor. |

$75. MMP 2400KV setup going into it this weekend. Ordered some replacement parts for the Flux and the Flux XS-some being the hardcore replacements/upgrades. Going to sell the Flux XS, stock pede, one of the scalars (possibly both), and possibly the Pede VXL. Cut down the insanity some. If interested lmk. |

Watched my mini cooper get towed away. Went to the shop and was told it is probably the clutch and won't be under warranty (which I knew clutches weren't ) and will cost about 1800 to fix, parts and labor.  |

Got my car back today. Was the transmission and thankfully it went out 3 days before the warranty expired. Got a new one installed, and 300 bucks later I have my car back.

Glad to hear Bill! $300 is a lot better than $1800
