HPI RTR SAVAGE X 4.6 W/ 2.4GHz & NITRO GT-2 TRUCK BODY

Pre-Assembled 1/8th Scale 4WD Nitro Powered Truck with F4.6 Engine, Roto Start System, 2 Speed Transmission, and 2.4GHz radio system.

The Savage X 4.6 - now with 2.4GHz!

Featuring a wide range of improvements, a huge jump in power and several option parts now as standard, the Savage X 4.6 set a new standard for big block monster trucks when it was first released. Now fitted with the brand new HPI TF-20 2.4GHz radio system, the Savage X 4.6 is now even better! The bar has been raised again, once again showing why the Savage is the most popular big block monster truck in the world!

With the HPI Savage monster truck range fully updated to 2.4GHz technology, the only choice you have to make is how crazy you want to get!

2.4GHz Radio System with Failsafe
The Savage X 4.6, Savage XL and Savage Flux HP now include an exclusive brand new HPI 2.4GHz radio system! This means you get to experience DSSS (Direct-Sequence Spread Spectrum) technology for no-crystal, no-fuss driving enjoyment. You can just switch on the radio and not have to worry about what channel anyone else is running - just get out and drive!

With failsafe tech, you get additional peace of mind, because you won't have to worry about battery failures or loss of radio contact - the RF-20 receiver has it built right in!

Awesome Option Parts Included As Standard!
Included with the Savage X 4.6 are two of our latest option parts: #86827 Alloy Diff Cases and new stronger brake disks!

The Alloy Diff Cases prevent damage to the internal diff gears front and rear, keeping the engine's horsepower where you want it - at the tyres!

Helping all the extra speed slow down are new red fibre brake disks, which are more fade-resistant than ever before and withstand the brutal punishment of the new F4.6 engine!

Savage X 4.6 Durability
'Proven Tough' Over-sized Suspension
Eight long coil-over shocks absorb anything type of rough terrain you throw the truck at, and beefy suspension arms and uprights can take the punishment of big-air drops and top speed runs over bumpy terrain. Keeping everything protected is the cool-looking anodized TVP chassis, which features a custom 'X' graphic. The enclosed radio box has been redesigned on the Savage X models as well, allowing you to add the #308 Battery Level Indicator and charging jack for the receiver battery.

The TVP (Twin Vertical Plate) chassis plates have been modified at both ends in increase the truck's durability. Structural webbing was added to the central gearbox to improve its strength. Extra material was added to the skid plates and bumper struts front and rear to let the Savage X SS 4.6 take on crashes and jumps. The engine mount and engine plate are now thicker to give you more durability and endurance, especially when you're landing massive jumps!

Savage X 4.6 Speed
Get that Savage X 4.6 engine going, and once again anyone watching will be surprised at its speed! With enough power to pull long wheelies with ease, the new F4.6 powerplant is designed for one thing and one thing only - huge amounts of horsepower! Nearly 3hp, in fact! Enough horsepower to get the Savage X 4.6 up to 45mph (73kph)! You want speed? You've got it!
