GT-2 Truck 1/8 brushless RTR Monster Truck with 2.4GHz radio

Take the award-winning and much-loved HPI Savage and replace the fire-breathing nitro engine with an overpowered electric motor - what do you get? The Savage Flux HP: a backflipping, super-fast monster of an electric truck! If you think the Savage X 4.6 is the wildest monster truck we've got, the Savage Flux HP is its electric twin! Powered by the awesome Flux Tork 2200 motor and twin battery packs for up to 6S of LiPo power, you will be pulling wheelies at the twitch of a finger, and getting air like nobody's business!

Easy plug-and-go convenience is the hallmark of electric RC trucks, and the Savage Flux HP is no different. Just plug in two matching battery packs and you are off and running! The Flux ELC-6S speed controller can handle massive amounts of power, and you can fit in up to 16 NiMH cells or 2 LiPo batteries (either 2S or 3S type). Want to break the speed limit with your monster truck? With the Savage Flux HP it's super-easy! With 2 3S LiPo batteries and on-road tires like our HPI4729 or HPI4731 mounted Phaltlines you can hit 62 mph (100km/h) with the pull of a trigger! The Savage Flux HP is equipped with as many super heavy-duty option parts as we could fit in, just so it can handle the power of the Flux Tork 2200 motor. We've equipped it with an all-metal gear transmission, steel spur gear, super heavy-duty dogbones, machine cut diff gears, 2.5mm TVP chassis plates, 3mm 7075 motor plate and dual 8mm billet motor clamps!

The Savage Flux HP is based on the already awesome Savage X chassis, and features a low-mounted Flux Tork 2200Kv motor in place of the big-block nitro engine, a powerful Flux ELC-6S speedo in place of the fuel tank, and twin battery boxes hanging on the outside to hold a variety of battery types. Power your Savage Flux HP with either NiMH batteries from 6- to 8-cell size, or dual LiPo batteries with 2S 7.4v or a whopping 3S 11.1v power! Everything else from the Savage X is carried over, including the tough all-metal gear drivetrain, extra-powerful metal-gear servo, machine-cut diff gears and legendary Savage suspension parts and shock towers for extreme durability! The lighter weight of the Savage Flux HP allows us to use just a single nylon shock at each corner, in BIG BORE size for excellent control and traction on any surface. The Savage Flux HP is loaded with new and exciting features, read on to find out more!

LEGENDARY SAVAGE DURABILITY:
After over a decade of thrilling serious RC bashing performance, the HPI Savage has earned a reputation for being the toughest monster truck you can find. A pair of 2.5mm thick aluminum Twin Vertical Plates (TVP) provide the backbone of the Savage, and a thick 7075 aluminum motor plate holds the super-powerful Flux Tork 2200 motor in place. The Savage suspension is ultra-tough, with super-thick webbed suspension arms and uprights built to handle gigantic jumps, rough landings, rolls and full-speed crashes. Super heavy-duty, bulletproof drivetrain parts like thick steel dogbones, all-metal transmission gears, machined steel diff gears and metal diff cases make sure drivetrain can handle all the power of the Flux Tork 2200 motor. Huge Big Bore dual-stage oil-filled shocks tame the roughest landings and terrain, giving you total control at all times! The Savage Flux HP is simply the toughest electric monster truck you'll ever find!

EASY TO DRIVE!:
The Savage Flux HP is super-easy to drive and get familiar with – to drive, simply pick up the controller with your left hand, put your left index finger into the trigger area, and then put your right hand on the steering wheel – it’s as natural as driving a real car! Turn the wheel to go left and right and gently pull on the trigger with your left index finger to go forwards. To brake the truck and come to a stop, gently push away from you with your left index finger. It takes just seconds to get used to driving an RC car, and soon you'll be doing speed runs and jumps with ease!

Motor and Battery Combinations:
The Flux Tork Brushless Motors requires very powerful batteries to get the most out of them - please make sure that you use the right combination! HPI highly recommend the use of LiPo batteries above 4000mAh and 25C. Using batteries with lower ratings, or the use of lower quality LiPo batteries, may cause damage to battery and/or speed control. Using batteries below the specified ratings may void the warranty of the speed controller and/or batteries. The term Kv refers to the number of RPMs that the motors will try to deliver per volt applied, and is a standard term for brushless motor power.

TWIN BATTERY POWER:
Brushless motors like the Flux Tork 2200 are already super powerful with just one battery compared to their older brushed ancestors, so you can imagine what two battery packs will be able to provide! The Savage Flux HP can take up to 16 NiMH cells (split up with 2 x 6-cell, 2 x 7-cell or 2 x 8-cell battery packs) or 2 LiPo packs of either 2S 7.4v or 3S 11.1v construction. The battery boxes feature cooling vents for the batteries and brand new straps with key locks to secure the packs in place.

EXTRA-LOW CG:
The Flux Tork 2200 motor sits extremely low in the chassis, providing as low a centre of gravity (CG) as possible, and the twin battery packs ride on the outside of the TVP chassis members, where the tuned pipe and fuel tank on a nitro-powered Savage would usually rest. The low CG gives you extra control and cornering ability, allowing you to rule the corners on the track and pull off spectacular stunts to impress and wow your friends! The picture to the right shows the Savage Flux HP chassis with the battery case removed, showing you how low the motor sits in the chassis.

BIG BORE NYLON SHOCKS:
Four huge Big Bore shocks give all the suspension action you need to get out and blast through the roughest of tracks or off-road terrain. With slick nylon bodies they are lightweight and strong, with almost no friction 'stiction' between the shock piston and shock body. The extra-large capacity gives you extra control and damping action so you have the driving feel that makes off-road driving so much fun!

ALL-TERRAIN TIRES:
With the aggressive tread of the GT-2 tires, you can go off-road to on-road with cool, predictable handling and very little drama. The centre tread lines give you stability on paved surfaces while the side treads and heavy-duty sidewall teeth grip any sort of dirt, mud, muck, leaves, etc., you can find on dirt roads or rutted fields. Drive with confidence knowing that the grip from your tires are the least of your worries.
