Most I've done is 20 or so FT altitude and landing on concrete... The worst jump for my Savage was when my cousin got 10FT of air and landed on the head

30 seconds into this video is the highest I have seen. Not a Savage, but the same concept.

It was not actually that high maybe 6-10 feet but it went in at an angle backwards upside down.
Wondered why it stopped running lol.
Not all bad though as i bought a Picco .28 to replace it...

Damage from that landing on the head was a chipped heat sink, warped motor plate, and a crapped out body.[8D]

That redneck bashers vid jump was insane! I need to top it, maybe I'll just throw my Savage off the empire state building?[sm=idea.gif]

i've done a couple dozen double backflips with my x 4.6

i've done hundreds of single backflips though. it's amazing what you can do with a couple of bike ramps at 45mph.

i'm going for a tripple backflip once i go brushless and get some bigger tires. bigger tires make backflips easier.

anyone heard of double backflips with a rustler vxl? i'm done dozens with it as well.
