|  Servo not working properly
After installing lights and running fine through about 5 packs, my servo (Hitec 645MG) will turn to the right, but when I go left, it seems sluggish or doesn't even turn for a few seconds. Lights dim and go out when it does this, but come back on afterwards. It still has these issues when there are no lights. My speed control (FX-r Pro) gets warm just when the truck is sitting. Everything worked fine before the lights. What is wrong?

Try installing a BEC, I got a high torque servo and it would only turn or run the motor. Wouldn't do both at the same time... Installed the BEC and everything is good now. You def need one if your running lights and everything.

Got a BEC, plugged it in, and didn't do anything. Installed the new servo I got along with the BEC, it works! Opened up the old servo to see what is up, wonderful smell of burnt electronics! Problem solved! PS: (Months ago) Running un-waterproofed through water probably didn't help.
