Awesome XL Looks!
The Savage XL definitely looks the part of the massive monster
truck! The extended wheelbase is the perfect evolution of the
Savage design, and with the larger tires and "Gigante" bodyshell
the Savage XL is simply a great-looking truck! The wide front
grille and huge headlights of the XL's bodyshell merge with the
flared wheel arches front and rear for a huge ΅wow
factorΆ, adding to the impression of the XL's massive size
and strength! The tall, wide Terra Pin tires fit the bodyshell
perfectly for a fantastic scale look thatΆs sure to
intimidate the opposition at your local bashing arena! Finally,
while the 8-hole wheels look huge, they use a standard 17mm hex hub
(the same as other HPI Savage monster trucks) so itΆs easy to
change the look and style of the XL as often as you like! The
Savage XL's amazing looks aren't it's best feature, but we went
all-out to make sure it looks as impressive as it performs!
New for 2014!
The updated Savage XL features option parts that boost its
convenience, reliability and performance so you can drive your
monster truck just about anywhere with complete
confidence!
Sintered Bulletproof Diff Gears
At both ends of the Savage XL, these Sintered Bulletproof Diff
Gears are now standard equipment, allowing all the engine power
from the Nitro Star K5.9 to get to the tires without being harmed
by rough landings or crashes. A truly monstrous gear ratio of 29/9
gives massive acceleration for burly air and heart-stopping
stunts!
Big Bore Shock Absorbers
The Savage XL is now fitted with a full set of Big Bore Savage
shocks, making it lighter, sleeker-looking and easier to maintain!
4 Big Bore shocks are lighter than 8 standard Savage shocks, so
you'll experience an even better power-to-weight ratio than before,
and should you ever need to rebuild the shocks you now have half as
many to work on. Plus, the Big Bore shocks just look better fitted
to the chassis!
Just Add Fuel!
The Savage XL includes nearly EVERYTHING you need to get
running: AA batteries for the transmitter, a rechargeable receiver
pack to power the truck's servos, a Roto Start handheld engine
starter with battery, and a wall charger for both the receiver pack
and Roto Start battery. You just need to add fuel!
K5.9 Engine
At the heart of the Savage XL is the monstrous Nitro Star K5.9
engine! This 5.9cc (.36 cubic inch) powerplant gives the XL loads
of torque for turning the giant tires and the muscle to power over
obstacles and through the toughest terrain and conditions. The low
powerband supplies the torque for getting the XL up to speed fast,
and the curved manifold and aluminum tuned pipe get the most power
out of the engine. The K5.9 is also fitted with a Roto-Start 2 for
easy starting, a vented heavy-duty clutchbell, an aluminum 3-shoe
clutch for tough and reliable power transfer and a giant heatsink
head so you wonΆt have to worry about overheating
Aluminum Exhaust System
With a curved rear-exhaust manifold directing exhaust gases to
the shiny aluminum 2-chamber tuned pipe, the specialized K5.9
exhaust system produces loads of horsepower that just demands to be
used!
Tough ABC Construction
With true ABC construction (Aluminum case, Brass Chrome-plated
piston and cylinder), the Nitro Star K5.9 delivers massive torque
and horsepower and is as durable as any other Nitro engine out
there. The three-needle carburetor uses a 9.5mm inlet to drink in
as much fuel as possible and the composite body helps prevent heat
build-up, which can make the engine run inconsistently. A tall,
flow-through finned heatsink head keeps things cool, and even
features a sweet laser-etched logo!
Dual-Stage Air Filter
A dual stage pre-oiled air filter is used to keep dirt and fine
particles of dust from entering the engine. The air filter is
securely mounted on a 90-degree rubber tube so it is placed in the
perfect position and stay in place through any type of driving.
Roto Start 2 Installed
Get things going quickly with the Roto Start 2 starting system,
which is pre-installed onto the back of the engine. The Roto Start
2 lets you use a handheld starting unit so you donΆt have to
deal with starting the engine by hand. The 7.2v stick-pack battery
to power the Roto Start 2 is included with the Savage XL kit - it
really doesnΆt get any easier to get running!
The Savage XL is loaded with standard features that make it the
perfect choice for anyone looking for a super-tough, massive
monster truck!
Extra-Long Alloy Chassis
To get the wheelbase of the Savage XL 55mm longer than a
standard Savage X, the XL uses an extended TVP (Twin Vertical
Plate) chassis that is made from 3mm thick 6061 aircraft alumnium.
6061-series aluminum is light and strong and provides the strength
for stretching the Savage platform to its limits! The chassis
features the cool Savage 'X' styling, plus extra design features to
really make it stand out! The engine is fitted to a one-piece
engine mount firmly attached to a 3mm extra thick engine mounting
plate that is mounted between the TVP chassis for extra rigidity.
These are the thickest standard TVP and engine plate parts ever
used on a Savage monster truck, and can easily withstand the torque
of the massive Nitro Star K5.9 engine.
Tall All-Terrain Tires
The XL's Terra Pin tires stand tall, at 170mm (nearly 7 inches
across!) to soak up ruts, bumps, rough landings and more! The tough
spike pattern help the Savage XL perform grass and loose dirt,
while the chevron centre pattern give it good directional stability
on the harder stuff. The tall sidewalls provide extra shock
absorption and allow the tires to grip extremely as they roll over
obstacles.
3 Speed Transmission
The Savage XL features the Savage 3-speed transmission to get
the most out of the K5.9 engine. This gives you the best
acceleration and top speed possible, getting all the power
efficiently to the ground for maximum fun and enjoyment! The
transmission is fully adjustable, too, so you can choose how early
or late the XL will shift into higher gear!
Aluminum Three-Shoe Clutch
The Savage XL uses an XL-tough 3-shoe aluminum clutch to get the
power from the engine into the drivetrain. Using a unique blend of
aluminum, the clutch shoes will resist wear, not be affected by
engine heat and last for a very long time. There's no more secure
way to get the power to the ground!
XL-Tough Wide Stance
The Savage XL features suspension parts designed just for the
larger tires and weight of this massive beast! Aluminum extension
axles feature 17mm hex hubs so you can fit any monster truck wheel
straight on, and serrated wheel nuts grip the wheel securely to
make sure they stay in place. XL-tough steering knuckles and
uprights means the truck can take more abuse and punishment, giving
you plenty of big-air thrills!
Reinforced All-Metal Differentials
Machined diff ring and pinion bevel gears easily take the power
of 5.9cc of nitro-burning mayhem, alloy diff cases and 4-gear diffs
with large diff outdrives and axles round out the ultra-strong
differentials, while extra heavy-duty dogbones get the power to
both ends and all four wheels with ease.
XL-Large Diff Outdrives
Getting the power to the dogbones are large diff outdrive cups.
These machined steel outdrives can take the punishment of the
suspension movement and the power of the K5.9 engine to get you
through the toughest driving conditions and terrain with no
problems!
XL-Thick Dogbones
Super heavy-duty dogbones provide the insurance you'll want when
you take the XL way off-road and into rough country! The thick
diameter, large ends and sleek black anodizing add up to all the
assurance you'll want that the drivetrain won't let you down when
the going gets tough! You'll be able to commit the full power of
the K5.9 engine to the ground without worrying about drivetrain
breakages or anything else!
Machined Steel Spur Gear
A machined steel 52T spur gear is the perfect match for the
horsepower of the Nitro Star K5.9 engine. With the heavy duty
vented clutchbell spinning the spur gear, you get a huge amount of
drivetrain protection with gears that won't strip, melt or break!
You'll have security and peace of mind that your truck will not
only perform superbly, but last as long as possible in the roughest
of terrain and conditions!
6v NiMH Receiver Pack and Charger
To make sure the servos have all the power they need and then
some, we're throwing in an HPI 1200mAh NiMH battery pack! This
rechargeable pack even includes a convenient wall charger so you
can make sure that the XL is always ready to rumble. You don't even
need to take the pack out of the truck to charge it - just use the
convenient charging jack built into the radio box and you'll be
ready to go in no time!
Dual Fiber Disk Brakes
These twin vented disk brakes are made from heat-resistant fiber
material to give you more stopping power at all speeds - all the
better to control the Savage XL in the tight and twisty bits!
Full Set of Sealed Ball Bearings
Like all HPI kits, the Savage XL is completely outfitted with a
set of fully sealed ball bearings throughout the drivetrain. This
means you get long runtimes from every tank of fuel and reduced
wear-and-tear on the drivetrain.
2.4GHz Radio System Installed
All HPI Ready-To-Run kits feature an easy to use 2.4GHz radio
system to make the car as simple and fun to drive as possible.
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum techn eliminates the need for
frequency crystals so you can drive without thinking about
frequency conflicts or interference, so you get long-range control
and reliable communication with your truck. A waterproof SF-10W
servo handles the throttle and brake duties, while an extra-tough
SF-50 servo is easily able to handle the steering!
Easy to Drive!
All this power and durability gets you nowhere unless the truck
is easy to drive and can get you through the rough stuff, so HPI
designers made sure that the Savage XL can take everything you can
throw it at and come through handling like a champ! The first thing
that hits the ground are the huge HPI Terra Pin tires, which
feature a tall sidewall, expanding carcass cross-section and tough
spikes to rip through grass and loose dirt. The tall tires make
handling the rough stuff easy, and the ground clearance of better
than 7cm (over 3 inches) gets you over any obstacles with room to
spare! In addition to the friendlier handling, the XL can handle
even rougher terrain than the rest of the Savage monster trucks
because its massive size. The Savage XL is more forgiving in
extreme terrain than other Savage trucks, making it easier to
control and more forgiving in the most terrifying conditions!
