| Help needed with weak servo
I have Hitec digital servos on front and rear of my clod and the rear one works just fine but the front one sometimes works and then sometimes it will barely if at all turn the tires when the truck isnt moving, At first, i thought it was due to sorry mounting since the servo body would rock back and forth but i have since fixed the mounting. the servo body dont move at all now and the problem still persists. Think maybe this is just a bad servo? this servo gets slightly warm to the touch on the back side of the case where the rear one that works fine never is warm. these are the HS 5645 MG servos. I appreciate any responses. This is driving me nuts trying to fix.

sounds like the motor blew a wind. Either email hitec about it, or take it apart and smell the motor for that burnt electronic smell.

also, unhook the servo to see if it moves freely, and make sure your steering moves freely as well.
