Can you change the radio for analog and see if it helps? It will send the servo a "slower" signal. Otherwise it sounds like the OP-Amp is having troubles.

Can you do that? If you can I have no idea how.

I can't find it in my radio, but i know some radios have that option. Maybe the futaba doesn't. Where is Harley when you need him?

Harley saved the day just as I figured it out. I changed the radio from digital to analog and all is good. Wonder how that effects the digital servo I will be using to steer this pig?
Thanks JRH, and Harley for helping a brother out.

The digi may have slower response and lower stall torque, just an offhand guess.

Glad you got it figured out! Programming issues are always better than a bum servo.

Yeah we will see, I am going to try and finish the build today after work. Harley said I probably won't be able to tell a difference in the digital servo, hope he is right.

Are you not able to change the digital/analog setting for each channel?

That's why I put a 5645 on my vp dig for my 2.2 TT. It's just a digital 645 with some extra water resistance added.

Can't wait to see the new body cut and painted. The quick hackjob got me excited to see a Chevy Wraith!

I put the stock panels back on for the scale GTG after tomorrows comp. I will get back on the Chevy panels Sunday. I have them roughed out, I just have to get all the mounting holes put in, finish dove tailing the bed, and paint it. I originally hated the stock panels, but they are starting to grow on me. BUT YOU CAN'T BEAT A CHEVY!

I took it out for the first time yesterday, but it was short lived. I ran it on the stock spur with an 18t pinion, and the 25t handwound Brood hauled the mail but got scorching hot real fast. I did not have any other gears with me so I called it a day before I ruined the motor. I will have to get some lower gearing and try again.

Going to be running a Mamba Max Pro and want a sensored brushless motor to go along with it. I have narrowed it down to the three Tekin options just not sure which one to go with Redline, Pro 4, or Roc. Any and all sugestions are welcome.

How fast do you want to go?
I'm running the tekin RS 17.5 combo. Middle of the road on speed.

Want to be able to crawl technical sections and make up ground on the spaces inbetween.
