2 servos dead in a week .

So far i have burnt 2 throttle servos in the past week and i dont know why . I was mostly running on pavement and snow , it could be that though but i'm not sure , i used one of my old steering servos today and it also got burnt somehow it wasn't even in water , it just stopped dead from one second to the next. very weird, Is there anything i can do to prevent this ? Either way i just ordered some new ones so i can go out and bash some more .

it could be from running in the snow. u should try the new traxxas waterproof servos.

i think i will just plasti dip them like i should of done the day i got it .T%oday really sucked finally , my servo died and ''BOUTCH's'' A Arm busted from running into a cement median after like 10 minutes , so our day was cut short by alot .

be sure that if you have a high end radio, you aren't running in HRS mode with analog servos.

I' m just using the regular traxxas one . So i guess that wont be a problem. Thanks for the heads up anyway .
