Default Servo mounting question

I have a Dingo kit and will be using a Hitec 7954SH servo on the stock mounting location.

My issue is that the neutral position of the servo doesnt seem to line up with the servo arm. How do I get around this?

You could make a new drag link, or maybe flip the servo over to see of that aligns it better.

Or just use the trim on your radio?

Yeah my issue is the neutral position of the servo puts the arm horizontally, this means I have to mount the servo standing up to line up with the steering arm.

I am just wondering if this is normal on these cars the way the servo is mounted.

Oh, is that your problem? Then unbolt the screw that is on the arm and go's into the servo. Pull the arm off. Place back the arm in the direction you want. Turn the screw back on. Its that easy

In the pic below there are 3 servo's. The middle one has the horn on (with the screw) the top one and the bottom one has no horn (or screw).

Oh yeah do what TimV said. I thought maybe your servo was upside down or something.
Take the horn off, get you servo to neutral and then get your wheels straight and put the servo horn back on.
