www.RCSparks.com - 1/8th Scale to 1/5 Scale! This is my First Run / Test of this conversion kit. I'm easing my way into it - and am testing my TCS Converted Savage Flux HP. Nothing special - just me working my way into getting used to the rig.
The Tires on this Rig are Pro-line Racing Trenchers
The Batteries are Dual GensAce 2S 5000mah Lipos
Here is some info on the Savage Flux HP:
"The Flux Tork 2200 features a motor case with massive machined cooling fins that really make it look the part of an all-out power plant! With a 5mm motor shaft it can fit optional pinion gears so you can get even MORE top speed for those insane runs, or gear it down a bit for increased acceleration on the track. The Tork 2200 is mounted to the 3mm 7075 aluminum motor plate with two 8mm billet machined aluminum clamps so it won't move or shift under the immense amount of torque of the brushless motor.
Controlling the Tork 2200 is the Flux Blur electronic speed control, the most powerful brushless speed controller we could find. With the ability to handle twin 3S LiPo batteries (that's a total of 6S LiPo power!) it can deal with anything the Tork 2200 motor can dish out! 6mm bullet connectors secure the motor wires for loss-free connection to the 10-gauge wires, and to connect to each battery pack we've attached real Dean's connectors for zero power loss and total efficiency."
Here is some info about the TCS Conversion kit: www.tcscrawlers...
"Now you can finally drive your flux on 6S the way you want to, pinned! The TCS Crawlers Flux 5T chassis kit includes everything to convert your HPI Savage Flux to a 1/5 scale truck (minus a servo extension). Two separate mounting locations for stock battery trays (mid chassis and rear) and slots in TVP's allow for battery pack mounting inside the TVP's with straps. The truck shown has Savage XL tires and wheels that are not included. Shown below against a stock Savage Flux for size reference.
HPI Baja 5T bodies will work on this truck (same wheelbase). 5T bodies can be used with the stock Flux body mounts (new holes need to be drilled in the body), but the extra weight of the body does slow down the truck and degrades handling. Baja 5B bodies have not been tested."

Looks really nice and stable, it would be awesome if this conversion existed for e-revo/summit too cause I really like the look of it :)

I have the TCS chassis also with a set of Trenchers on it. I also put the HPI suspension kit on it. Runs like a beast. I think I went to a 25 pinion on mine and my run times greatly increased with minimal temps (130-150). I even did a bit of WOT runs in a large grassy field. Lots of airflow around the motor to kept it cool. Was running on 4S 6000mah Nano Techs. Last time I went out I broke something in the Rear diff. Need to fix that sometime.

I see what you mean when you say: going BIG :) Eih friend, it seems so smooth, did you rebuild the diffs ? What brand in pinion & spur in this machine ? Perfect g.mesh i think :) Do you have plans for the body on this one ? I can think in a class 1 Buggy ;) with frame and body panels on it :) thanks for all ! Cheers to LittleMedic

hey medic. have you seen the losi 5t conversion? crazy speeds! I have the losi 5t stock and love it the way it is, any more power and your just not going to be able to control it, TOTAL OVERKILL! great for bashing, but that is it! you got to find the balance between speed and control

ive seen a few 1/5th-scale electric powered thingies online... such as the EP 1/5th on R2hobbies... and i have always wondered what it would be like with something that big, and ridiculous power, and to many S on the batterys to not flinch when you plug it in! awesome way to get it ''cheap'' =)
@1MANSWISH
@1MANSWISH 11 лет назад
love the way it looks but its runs kinda weird DJ? the mesh maybe right but pyu a srtip of paper between it and see if it rips!! if it does re mesh..but REAL TALK STRAIT BOSS!!!
@fr8cture
@fr8cture 11 лет назад
Also I wonder why HPI didn't just make the baja's like this and put a bigger power system in it. It would be a much cheaper option if you didn't have to buy a savage first and then convert it.

if you were to take out that x-brace where the "windshield" goes, you could possibly mount a gopro there for some awesome ride footage

this is basically an 1/8th scale savage flux with a conversion kit that stretches the wheelbase, expect basically the same the same runtimes as the savage flux, maybe a bit shorter given the fact that the tvps are 5mm thick xD but all in all it is MUCH LIGHTER, FASTER, and has the legendary savage reliability. its perfectly drivable on 4s and ith 6s its a monster! hope this helps!
@DCSD8969
@DCSD8969 11 лет назад
ahh man i wish i had the money for this stuff, i decided to make my own conversion, homemade. did all the calculations of scale and that sort of stuff myself. driveshaft ended up being over 12in long! crazy stuff though, i hope that when i finally run it (i blew the motor doing backflips with the optional speed gearing :D) that the new driveshaft i made will hold up. i tempered it and everything i just dont know if its balanced xP anyways if anyone wants to see pics im @theironyouth on IG thnx
@RCcentral2013
@RCcentral2013 11 лет назад
probably because li-po is considered an upgrade for batteries so why would he go Ni-MH you get nothing but stuttering and I know because ive got it in my royal flash and it doesn't stutter at full charge but once to battery hits 75% charge it stutters for some reason and I know its no the motor because I recently changed it and its still doing the same thing and the ESC is ok because I changed that out as well and it still does the same thing so im going li-po see if that works

Am I the only person who think that thing look funny.... The Savage is a Monster Truck!!! There is nothing Monster about the ride height of a sports car.... Medic as always nice build you always have Quality but that looks blah!!!! To long not wide enough looks like a skinny bitch that needs to eat!!!! :)

I run 8 s on my flux db 17 . have the xl2 ,stop that cogging issue too. make sure u change ur voltage to motor, works awesome fast acel to top end , in only sec. lol. running 45 spur- 23 pin. same tires x wide trenchers.my youngest son calls it fluxso after benders evil twin. needs the r r p. spur gear. that will help give some clutch back.
@DocWolph
@DocWolph 11 лет назад
Makes me wonder why more companies don't just convert that 1/8 monsters into 1/5 off-road machines (I know. HPI, but who else? No one). I can't imagine it would cost that much more than the truck its based on and you can move into the coveted 1/5 scale space with out spending quite so much. This sort of thing is right up Traxxas' and AE/Thunder Tiger's alleys.
@tatertot700
@tatertot700 11 лет назад
medic i was very curious into what your opinion was on what is the best way to modify the scx10 i have the dingo kit and a problem for me is screws randomly fall out even after tightening and using the provided lock tight also what is a decent transmission and gear ratio to go along with a 35t tekin system thx medic you da man keep having fun and being awesome
@Bacon676
@Bacon676 11 лет назад
Medic, make sure you upgrade that slipper clutch. All the extra weight of the chassis and tires is going to work to glaze the stock one (slipper pads) extremely quickly. Robinson Racing gen 3 slipper is a permanent fix solution for this. That or a center differential.

How does it handle on small low speed jumps do you know? I just visited tcs' site I got my answer to the 4x4 question.
@Drunken_Hamster
@Drunken_Hamster 11 лет назад
a 5th scale on 4s? i thought it wouldn't be enough, what's it get up to? is doing this better than just getting a 5th scale in the first place? is it lighter? stronger? can it jump better with less repercussions? what're the run times?

Why not give it a W I D E R Stance and use the Savage XL parts? It would make it more stable and more proportional looking, Imo. I plane on converting mine over in the future and Using the Losi LST Aluminum Shocks Conversion.

@infesting 11 лет назад
@chester wilkins The top speed all depends on what pinion or spur he uses. If you notice he is testing the vehical not bashing so i am sure gearing is still being worked out and top speed will change till gearing is picked.

If u run 5 cell its PLENTY of power w/ the Mamba Monster 2200. I run it in my mt4 g3 (the re-brandet TORK system but its the same w/ heatsink). Wheelies aaaal day long ;) I will post a video on my channel if u r intrestet.
