HPI Savage XS flux unboxing
Ойын-сауық
In this video we unbox the HPI Savage XS to see what it is all about. This 10th scale offering from HPI is the first HPI Racing vehicle to hit the channel and we couldn't be more curious to see how HIP designs this next generation of RCs. Come along as we put it to the test and see what makes it tick.

I don’t know HPI that well but as a brand it’s growing on me, because it’s slightly different built than Arrma and Traxas. Would love to see a review of the HPI Vorza S on your channel.
i would say its a mini savage. not a copy of the Cen truck. the full size savage has had twin plate chassis since it was released many many years ago. the 6s savage flux XL is just straight up violent. truck is a blast
So happy it's cheap in my country. Loving using mine. Got it for 231usd. :) It was however the El Camino version I got.
It's made for 2s out of the box. :) They recommend using lower gearing for 3s to drive it better and for better durability since lower acceleration.
One thing that I really hate of many videos about RC’s is the background music. I rather listen to the RC engine and running instead of the background music is just too loud and annoying. Thanks
what a peppy lil truck!!
Looks like it'll be pretty tough. Maybe a new 3S 1/10 MT competitor to the AE MT10 and ARRMA Granite Awesome vid as always AJ
Great video!
Being in this hobby only for 3 years I remember immediately fall in love with HPI. Especially in Wheely King 🤩 This is such a fun monster truck for me! Nice to see these guys still in this hobby, long live to HPI 💪😉
a friend got one, i've tested, speed, toughness, cheap, what else...... (sorry for my english, i'm french ;) ) Thanks for your vidz AJ
Nice little truck, I'm getting my first 6s truck this month. Outcast 6s exb. I can't wait 🙏🤟🤓
Great video and HPI is probably more known here in the U.K. and they’re really good trucks. I think you should point out to newer drivers that you should go over a new vehicle and check everything is nice and tight. This also has the benefit of getting to know how your rc works. Thanks for another interesting video
Great video ❤ I love the spots you get to bash at! Totally awesome 🎉
Great review. You really covered everything about the Savage and got some excellent runs. Excellent!!! ⭐
Excellent review as always. Love the bash location you have there. So nice in the dust and pines. Wish it was that dry here in the UK.
Great vid dude.. wow awesome truck. just checked some of your vids 👍👍 subscribed.. awesome content.. 😊 have a great Christmas. Pete
It looks like if you could get those back wheels balanced better because they look really wobbly. If you get those balanced good I think it would handle a lot better for you. Because if it's really wobbly like that it'll throw it off balance making it really squirrely and difficult to drive. Get it the run smooth I guarantee it or handle better.😊
I love mine. Takes some nasty tumbles but it just keeps going! FYI, the stock tires are pretty bad. Way too hard of a compound and you get absolutely no grip. Edit: I should have waited to comment till the end lol. You really put it through its paces.
Aj your reviews, knowledge, and willingness to help is second to none! Class act,thanks!

I appreciate that!
If you want to go bigger on HPI, have a look at the HPI Jumpshot Flux MT. Bit simpler to maintain, but very fast and tough and awesome fun. Just got a second hand Savage XS Flux. It needs a bit of work, but i find it a bit daunting. It's very complex. I don't even know where to start taking it apart.
Back in the day HPI was huge. For MT bashing it was Savage vs. Maxx. Lots if turmoil though for HPI in the 2010s though and ARRMA arose to become the new competitor for Traxxas. SavageXS is an old design. There really wasnt anything competable to it when it first came out. Small overpowered and very dutable MT. A handful to drive but that was expected as it was created in the shadow of its big brother the Savage Flux HP which was similarly a handful as an 1/8 scale on 6S power!

3:50 its more like the original savage that HPI have been making for thousands of years and all in-between have utilized a twin vertical plate chassis set up
I bought one of those used off Ebay years ago. It had broken 4-wheel drive. Put a pin in rear wheel runs fine. Not my favorite truck. Like my Traxxas RCs much more.
Hi m8 have you got thr nirto xl5.9 and you do the video on the brakes please full set up, thanks
What size ovonic 3s battery fits in this truck?
What 3s ovonic batteries fit in this truck. I just purchased this truck and I need some batteries for it. I have the Glitten Jr. Truck it's nuts on 3s. Ovonic 5200 3s fits.
Great review. What would you say compared to the Arrma Granite? Cheers

The size difference is a big deal. The Granite is bigger, fast, powerful, and fun. The controllability is better on the Granite and it’s the size difference that causes most of that. Both are cool. If you like smaller RCs then either will work for you. Parts for the Granite are readily available at most hobby stores in our area. While I have to order in parts for the HPI. We are located in the US and things may be different elsewhere. I’m glad we have both. Thanks for asking 😎👍
Going to be doing any upgrades to the traxxas ford fiesta st you unboxed and reviewed awhile ago?

I am partial to the Granite.
Arrma Vorteks or Big Rock look like a way better deal at that price point.

This isn't even 1/10, it's closer to 1/12 scale so for the price it's a bit overpriced. Considering the AE 14MT is less than $220 this should be around $280. At $350 I'm getting the Granite as well.
2S this thing is great, but as a basher not so much. I have broken multiple parts on this since I have owned (6months). I feel HPI has gone down in quality over the years.

ehhh more like a 1/12th scale sitting next to a legit 1/10th this thing is smaller for sure.
it's not 1/10 btw. 1/12 ish but has 1/10 electronics. It's much smaller than their 1/10 offerings.
