could be due to a couple things: - batts not fully charged - servos not 'aligned' properly (is there any humming when you're not turning the wheel? when you lift the truck off the ground?) - are the servo hot?? those are the main things i can think of... the stock servos arent the strongest nor most durable by any stretch... it also depends on under what conditions you are experiencing these issues; is the truck sitting on a flat surface or while the tires are lodged against an object (like when rock crawling)?? The internal gears are just plastic so after time and use they can/will wear and strip/fail. there are upgrades available more powerful with metal internal gears when you get to that road... |
