Got an MERV and a 1/16 Slash last August when they were first coming out. I have since converted the Slash to a MERV. We do bashing only, and the Slash would be a bit faster, but a lot more tippy.
...
Yeah, quirky stuff at first.
But mine has been fully submerged in the water/sand at the beach. Also running a constant 210F at the motor (95 at the ESC, sidewinder) and it's still tickin. :D
Well, the SuperVee 27R is in stock....
Nice, will come in handy this winter with the New England snow!
I have a Flux too, how you liking the ERBE in comparison?
Yup, broke my mini yesterday. Running 3s lipo full speed into a sharp curb, split my chassis and rear bulkhead. Oh well, it's all in good fun.
Hmm, had the same problem yesterday with my Savage Flux. Eventually, when I pushed the switch to the on position, I pushed a bit harder than normal (but not enough to break it of course). It turned...
Yeah, from first glance it can seem a bit overwhelming but its not bad at all. The only thing I really did was tell the steering expo knob that it is a throttle trim setting because I use it for my...
same thing happened to me, about $25 bucks for a new one. Make sure you get one with bearings so you don't have to go thru the trouble of taking the old ones out.

I bought the Savage Flux over the Revo, but then again I do have a mini Revo....
That stinks man, same thing happened to me on my Savage Flux, but at least I was able to use it a few times. I received my new ESC back from HPI within about 3 weeks, too long. I plan on ordering a...
You are right, I used a dremel to remove the raised edges of the receiver box. I choose the receiver side as there is more room to mount the ESC without having part of the ESC hanging off the side. I...
My Sidewinder install, let me know if you have any questions:

Wasn't doing anything special, flat dirt parking lot runs on 4S. No jumps, no water, nothing great at all. Just up and went on me.
Slight problem with my MMM....

Thanks for the responses. Much appreciated.
Anyone run this setup. I am thinking of going this route as my MMM has fried and is being replaced under warranty. But, for the future, I would like a nice backup plan. Soo, is anyone running the RX8...
I use velcro and a zip tie through the battery box. I didn't want to use tape as I would have to re-apply it every time I took off the ESC (which I have to do when changing the spur). You can kinda...
Blur and the MMM are identical, and they both do this:

The one on the right is certainly newer, however when I've broken that part of the bulkheads, the chassis is usually toast too. They need a fix for that as well.
Yup, seems to happen quite often. My Savage Flux ESC fried as well (called a Blur but is really just a MMM)

Want my MMM?? Only used 5 times

Nice pics, pretty creative with the rear spoiler, may have to try that
heres mine, black chassis, white wing!

I'm running the Tactic/Tower 2.4Ghz system. No antenna at all. The label on the receiver has started to peel off from all of the wet and snow running.
Oh, and I wanted to keep the car waterproof,...
Hey all,
I've been a frequent browser here (multiple times daily), however, I do not find myself posting too often for some reason. Anyways, I've had my MERV since this past august and what a fun...
