| servos
i bought the futaba 2channel rx and tx combo as a starter to get my foot in the door of the RC fun. the servos that come with it are the futaba s3003. are these servos way under powered for crawlers? if so what would be a good servo thatll give me enough turning power to get me out running. currently it seems like the servo doesnt want to even turn the wheels on smooth surfaces.
