Default servo arm is rubbing.

I just got my mrc pro and I put my 1/10 servo on it off my crawler king cause I'm waiting for my other servo to come in the mail. But the problem is when I turn it all the way left the steering arm that connects to the servo horn hits the bottom of the steering servo but when I turn it right it does not rub at all. Can someone please help me figure this out. It be much appreciated thanks.... jayson

Try flipping the servo over and using the other drag link that came with your pro

Exactly as Derek has said, i flipped my servo and used the second arm that comes in the packaging, worked a treat with the Hitec 645 i use.

I had this problem, but I used an old aluminum arm off a clod buster chassis and some leftover links from my AX-10 and built a new link. I will post some pics later though (need to snap some).

I probably should have done that, but it's kinda late now because I rattail filed the servo holes to fit the mounts. Don't really want to slot them in the other direction too.

Does anyone make proper tower brackets that fit into the servo plate depressions but are sized for full-size servos? Since Losi set everything up to use both servo sizes, I'm surprised they didn't provide alternate towers.

Not sure but You could try some rpm servo mounts from rc bros. They only use one screw to mount like the pro does. I have ran lots of minis with only two screws in the servo with no problems

They seem to have a big square foot that wouldn't fit the smaller oval hole in the Losi plate. Maybe they could be ground down to fit, dunno.

I have not tried them yet I have a set I could dremel down and see but then the servo might be too low on the plate. I have a RC bros front link plate on one of my pros with the rpm mounts and it works great
