In my case one channel , my right aileron, was not operating but the left one was normal. so i switched positions on the receiver and the right one worked, but the left did not. ….so this would indicate the receiver and servos are ok. So this is a tx setting problem ? if so what am i missing ?

Been trouble shooting my sons RC. It started with no response in steering. I checked it out, and the servo had sand around it. I replaced the servo, and the new one had a steering response, but randomly didn't respond to left turns and would twitch. The company sent a replacement that has random no response also but the servo will twitch if I tap on the top of the controller.

Maybe a smaller diff output cup with the 3 racing universal shafts, have you also tried one of the little clear donut washers in the diff output cup to buffer the universal shaft? When turning that far it sometimes creates a space between the back of the diff output and the dogbone on the uni shaft

Ok what if your ESC does not respond unless re "binding" the remote every time you turn you car on?? I have a hpi savage xl and I fixed a couple things then after putting it back together I turn it on, no beeps from the ESC.... Turn the remote off and hold the bind button and turn it back on it then beeps. Wait 2 or 3 minutes it works?

I've had a receiver do this. I needed to rebind it every time. It still worked well, but I ended up changing the radio set completely as the receiver in question was no longer available.

Odd that mine does not, even after years of use. Just make sure the play is not due to the ball links moving in their mounting points. Like in the skid plate, move them and pay attention to what exactly is loose. The ball in the ball end or the ball on the screw/mounting point. I'm not sure that's clear..

Seeing as the steering arm sits on the flange of the bearing why not drill all the way through. Also counter sunk screws work better to secure bearing as they don't bind on side of bearings
@TheLEDwheel
@TheLEDwheel 5 месяцев назад
Agreed, but drilling all the way would weaken it way more than it needed to be. Also, for the screw type, the socket cap kind of hides the bearing, making it look like there's just a washer underneath. Therefore, it looks stock ish. If i had longer zinc type phillips i would have used those. All in all it works well.

I abused mine and its still good but yes there is always a way to modify it. Just have to find the right width and then fit it to the chassis. But some adaptations/mods will most likely be needed. Boom racing might have axles that fit width wise. Otherwise maybe Injora!?
