I need some help setting up my new servo in my wraith. I got a 7950 I set all my trims to zero I put blocks to keep the wheels straight and put the servo horn on centered. It has a lot of steering in one direction and hardly any steering in the other. I took the servo horn off and steered the servo it steers a lot in one direction and barely any in the other. Do I need to set up the servo with my radio ? I've never had this issue. I'm running a Dx3R pro if that matters.

What are your steering end points set to? (EPA L&R) in the transmitter

You need to first power up the servo without the horn installed and get it to its center position; make sure all the servo trims are set to 0 and EPAs are at 100%. Then put the servo horn on and use the sub trim to dial it out.

With the horn off if you cant get the servo spline to move equal in both directions then servo might be the problem. .id try to play with remote trim to see if servo can even go the direction you what.

There EPA settings are in there, might have to go on youtube and watch a video on that transmitter to find out how to get there & adjust it. At first, you want to make sure they are at the same value, this will tell the servo to move equal amounts in either direction. Then, when you get it all buttoned up, you can turn the wheel to see if there is any binding or too much steering in certain direction (lower your value in that direction) or if there is not enough steering in either direction (raise your value in that direction).

Yeah, pretty much.

*(any 3D interior must include seat, dash, steering wheel and floor)

You have the 2dr lexan JK, right? Check out that new Jeep body I posted above. That would be killer on your truck.. They are about $130-$150 though. That is a 3D interior.

Or you could go new bright TJ for around $50, new bright 4dr JK for around $80, tamiya TJ for around $50 but, you'll have to make an interior for that one or run 2D.

With servo horn off it turns good one way but the other way it moves a very small amount ?

Is this the new one you got from me? Hope not as that had never been powered up.

Is you trim set to 0 and your EPAs set to 100?

Man figured it out total newbie mistake I was only looking at the sub trim steering menu screen and didn't even look at the trim on the main menu screen. I sure feel dumb right about now.

Thumbs up Re: NIRC. Chit Chat

Don't have it yet but, it looks killer. Great for C1 or C2.. I'll be doing a C1. There is a small thread in the general scale section about them. One guy posted some pretty bitchin' pics of his with poisin spyder flares on 1.9 pits. Looks nasty.

I just ordered it last night. Coming from china.. They are telling me around the end of the month. Right about the time I'll be able to get my hands on a GelandeII. They come in red & yellow. Multiple sellers on ebay. There afe a couple new bright TJ's and a cool JK body in the classifieds right now.

I think they will catch on pretty hard once a couple killer builds happen using them.. Then they will be hard to come by, then they will cost $175-$200.. Then they will drop off a little bit but, still be cool as hell.. Ya know, kinda like the NB JK.

Edit: MIGHT be a good investment to get a handful of them into the country.. Ya know, if you got the money and you're into that sorta thing.

i think one of those bodies would top off my bolt-on baller dingo quite nicely...

either that, or a gelandeII body from somebody who doesnt want it.
