| ******servo not working*******
Hey guys. OK, Ive just recently put in a external bec ( because the other one fried) and the throttle works and everything but when i turn the steering wheel the servo doesn't even move a bit, but when i turn the steering trim it turns. I'm running really low on cash because i just spent $185 on thunder tiger phoenix st and just put a $180 esc and motor and the lipo is charged to the max and it works fine with the battery but i have NO turning. Any suggestions ???? |

what brand of servo? BEC might not be hooked up right especially if its a hitec servo as they need the ground, and signal wire hooked to the Rx when you use a BEC or they get flakey. Hot should go to the BEC only if hitec.

Its just a shitty brand called hsp racing amd it always works great because its really quick and as soon as the bec got wired up to the reviever it never worked again?? Sent from my GT-S5660V using Tapatalk 2 |

I run Futaba & GT3B radios, no glitch issues. As to the original issue, can you try a different RX? If the steering trim works but not the steering wheel, that sounds like a radio issue, not servo. | |

I still think it's a radio issue since you have swapped everything BUT the radio (TX). | |
