    Sweet video man! The cutouts in the nitro version are for bump box starter or roto start options, The one in the middle is for transmission adjustment. There is a mod you can do to make it a two speed transmission. I bet you could use an hpi mt2 transmission cover. They both look epic!

    Wow this is a great video!!! The slow motion action shots were epic, great editing too. Awesome work. Subbed. That nitro was tunned perfect, singing great! The more your in the hobby the more you explore, glad you took on a nitro. They do have a learning curve, but I feel hpi hit this out of the park, it's the perfect chassis, and your running a good fuel. Metal HD dog bones all around that is a significant step above traxxas for small block nitro engines. Now you need one with a 2 speed. If I could justify it, I'd have one of each too lol. Cheers. I like my e-savage for all the reasons you listed and my nitro savage for IC glory.

    After reading the comments it looks like I am the only person here that finds the sound of nitro cars extremely obnoxious. Also the ease of use of the electric version is just unbeatable in my eyes.

    The cutouts in chassis are so you can use a bumpbox instead of pull starter. Engine needs to sit low enough for flywheel to be even with bottom of chassis

    They cut it out so u can use a box (bump) starter. It's for real race engines that DONT have a pull start engine.

    This is a great video
    I might buy one over the UDR and Baja 2.0.
    I will not nut *lol meant not knock* the 1/6 Losi Baja but once you get to $1000 and aren't focused on the $400-700 range you sold out and honestly most people can't afford it.
    Basically at the $1000 range, that's a down payment for a quad or dirt bike. Way more fun!

      @Tavionag
      Right!
      I know all to well about the RC hobby too. You think ur gonna spend 1000 on a RTR or 500 on a kit and the day after you have to spend another 300-500 to get it running and 3 months after you had to spend another 200 when things went wrong to keep it running. I love RC too and for 30 years now.
      If buy a new or newer used beginner dirt bike or trail bike (way funner than any RC), with $1k down. You got a hundred dollar payment including insurance and maybe even gas per month, with way more excitement!
      I love RC but it ain't cheep compared to what you get or the fun you could have.
      It used to be reasonable but that was 20+ years ago.

    • @jakesully7957
      @jakesully7957 10 місяців тому

      I guess to me a trail or dirt bike is 1k down and some gas plus maybe insurance. Registration happens when you buy it and can be included in the down payment with helmet if you know how to negotiate.
      Gear can be added later but not necessary. Repairs and maintenance will cost less then almost any off road RC or rc airplane unless you truly bunck up on the full size engine bike or even quad.

    Nice car but I still prefer the electric version. Nice sound for the nitro one but because in my area it is hard to get nitro fuel I rather go electric. However seems you need to tune your electric it appears to have a lot of power making it unstable.

    i hope this doesn't turn into a civil war on UA-cam between nitro nerds (like me) and the group who swears electric is king.
    electric is not always king, even today. but say 89% of the time it is. whatever.
    this discussion will always remain open and not solved because it doesn't need solving.
    there is electric guys and nitro guys(nerds) and that's the end of it.
    both are part of 1 and the same hobby, live with it, deal with it and ENJOY.
