| Clod steering help
I just recently got done with building a chassis for my old clod buster. It's nothing special, just your normal 4 link suspension clod. I now have my steering servos mounted on the axles but am wondering if I need to upgrade the servos. I'm currently just running some futaba s3003 servos for the steering. They do an ok job when it's moving but would like to be able to turn the tires when I'm out crawling with the truck and its not moving. Would upgrading to some high torque servos fix that? Also what kind of servo savers should I be running on it that would give the best steering? Here is what I currently have on the truck Let me know your suggestions. I'm open to any. I know the steering angles aren't the same as the servo mounted are homemade along with the steering and the rest of the truck. Was more of a budget build on it with stuff I had lying around. Thanks, Ben |
