I recently got a Holmes brxl esc to use with a couple weeks old scx10 II rtr and everything worked great. Some friends did tell me that I should look into upgrading the stock rtr Tactic servo as they dont last, so I found a dealer that sells Bluebird servos.
When I connected the bluebird servo, turning right was fine, straight wheels and turning left was glitchy. Even with no one holding the tx and the rig standing still....the servo would glitch moving the body.
I told this to the dealer and he said he'll send a replacement and while waiting, I connected back the stock Tactic servo and everything was fine. The replacement came, installed it......right turn is still fine, straight on is ok now but left turn is still glitchy. Standing still is ok, but only the left turn is where the glitch/shaking appears. The bluebird servo is a tad taller - so I had to install 2mm spacers to lift the servo a bit so the servo arm will not hit the panhard(?) bracket when the wheels turns left and there's still some space above it so the arm wont touch the underside of the chassis. I even had the rig upside down to actually see the servo arm not hit anything.
The servo in question is this:
RC Servos in Taiwan
Its a wide voltage type (4.8v-7.4v), digital, brushless, waterproof, all metal gears and dual ball bearings affair. Is the glitching apparent because I dont have an external BEC?
