Default HPI Savage Flux

SOLD!!!


For sale is my HPI Savage Flux. I have had this truck for 1.5 years and it is by far the most fun truck that I have ever owned. Unfortunately it does not compete well against buggies in the 4x4 unlimited class that I must race in and I have been racing more than bashing lately so I picked up a Losi 8ight.

As a basher the Savage Flux is unbeatable. It is fast and indestructible. HPI also has an excellent warranty. HPI upgraded my front and rear differentials to bulletproof differentials under warranty. They also replaced the brushless motor and ESC free of charge. The differentials were replaced this spring and the motor/esc was replaced this July

I have installed the following list of upgrades:
Acer Bearings (full set) $50
Sway Bars $25
Novak Hardened Pinions 18,19,20T $13
Heavy Duty Servo Saver Spring $3
Heavy Duty Cup Joints $14
ProLine Offset Wheels $35
Proline Crimefighter tires $40
Heavy Duty Dog Bones $30

I also have the following list of spare parts:
HPI SF-50 Servo $50
Servo Saver $15
Aluminum Big Bore Shocks $125
New Wheelie Bar $20
1 set RPM arms $12
Spare stock arms $10
Proline offset wheels $35
Stainless Steel Slipper Clutch $5
Body Mounts $10
Lots of spare shock parts
Spare body

It also comes with a set of bald ProLine Hole Shot tires – good for street tires. And 7 stock tires/wheels (one tire blew).

The truck is in good condition and has been very well maintained. Of course it has scratches on the underside and the bodies are in rough shape. I ran only 4s batteries. Never ran on 6s. Even on 4s I GPS’d this thing at 48MPH. Anything more would be insane – in my opinion.

Asking $575 shipped anywhere in the lower 48. PayPal preferred. I will also consider a partial trade for a modified SC-10.

I have receipts for most of the above items. Including the motor/ESC and differentials

Any questions – PLEASE ASK! I don’t want there to be any surprises.

Thanks for looking.

Why does everyone think they can get new prices for a used RC? Upgraded or not for less than $600 I can get a brand new Savage Flux HP shipped to my door. Upgrades mean jack when trying to sell. I have bought and sold many RCs in the last few years, average selling price of a used RC even with upgrades is about 1/2 what you have into it.

Dude you need to leave this site....... Yeah he is a tad high but with low ballers like you, you kinda have to ask high....

Good luck with your sale I wish I had the spare cash for one

Your (1) post is this crap? Take your drama out of here. He could ask $1500 for this if he wants. If you do not want to pay it....MOVE ON. It is really not brain surgery captain!

Wow, a little hating going on. I wasn't making an offer of 1/2 price, merely an observation. That may have been my first post here but I have been here for awhile and on other forums for many years

"asking" is the key word. I expect to negotiate a little.

Using your logic (sells for 1/2 what you have into it).......I've got well over $1000 into it including tires, wheels and upgrades. $1000/2 = $500 + $50 shipping = $550. Include a little negotiation.......... Using your logic I'm not far off... It's like Magic.

This is a link to my friends savage flux that sold on this forum this summer. Similarly equipped - he got $585 shipped for it.

This is a great truck, I've raced against it at our local outdoor track and it's usually been first for the Monster Trucks. I can attest, it's been very well maintained. Good luck with the sale!
