Default steering question

I just built a CPE evo w/ a 14 inch wheelbase. What kind of steering servo horn do I need for it to turn both ways. i just have the stock clod one(round) and it will only turn one way. Te servo will spin but with the way the linkage is, it only moves the linkage when turned to the right.

LMK, pics would be great.

well, without a pic of your setup, i'm guessing that the link going from your servo to your steering knuckle is probably at a steep angle? and with the round servo horn, you are not getting enough throw. get a longer servo horn, to get the steering links more parallel, and you should be good.

After reading your post and looking, that does seem to be the problem. I'll get a new horn Thanks,
