| MRC Steering Servo
I just did some mods to my MRC and one of which was relocation of the battery to the top of the servo. Well, now I try to turn when in just a incline with nothing really binding the steering it doesn't want to turn much. It acts almost as if it doesn't have enough torque to turn. I also noticed this before the battery, but not as much. When you hold the MRC in the air it has crazy turn radius, but nothing close on the ground. Has anyone changed out their servo or even noticed this?

The stock servo doesn't have enough power when you start throwing the battery on top & adding wheel weights. Check out my ride i upgraded to a traxxas 2075 twice the power.

Do you still have the stock servo saver on??? if so, try tightening it a little bit, that way it wont be as forgiving. The other side is that you might break the servo... | |

Well, I'll try tightening the spring and if it breaks, it will be a GREAT reason to get a new one! Thanks for the info guys!

I thought about going to a full size servo. Thanks for the info. I have a few servos laying around.
