Does it ever stop

[traxxas t-maxx]

The reason for the title being that is because I don't think ever since I got the t-maxx I haven't stoped dumping money into it, but oh well its a fun hobby. Okay so my question is I was out driving today and the sterring servo took a poop and died I want a waterproof traxxas one, but what one should I get.(model number please) :\

 

[flandersander]

Don't get another traxxas one. Get something a little stronger. I can't remember the brand off hand, brain fart, but like a 650mg. honestly, sombody else give him the brand, lol, can't remember. But something with metal gears would be good, and i'm sure you can get them waterproof. Sorry i can't remember the brand name. lol. But you will definatly notice more torque in the servo.

No its not hitting anything I checked I can hear it, it sounds very weak I even swithced the batteries with new ones. I was gunna try to stick away from higher tech servo more expensive.

I have a t-maxx, and sadly.....no

The 645 is an excellent steering servo with metal gears. $35.

Again? Go back to post #5.

Very stupid question do I want more or less torqe.

 

[NCNitro]

For steering, more. The Hitec 645 is a great metal gear budget priced servo, I have used them for years with no issues at all.

Yea I just installed a hitec 645 today...got it off ebay for $30 shipped.

Works great...but it has so much torque it stripped out my server saver......should I replace the servo saver with a stocker or a aftermarket one??? is there any aftermarket ones?

 

[Lessen]

Nope, it never stops. Although I'm in the midst of trying REALLY hard to attempt to stop it. Now realistically you're gonna break something eventually but it does take a lot of mods to have a TMaxx that doesn't break something every time you take it out unless your just really easy with it.

good choice, I use the Kimbrough servo savers on my sons maxx and mine, as well as my youngest sons stamped. They are great servo savers.

 

[traxxas t-maxx]

Do I want more torque or what.

 

[NCNitro]

I answered you in post 12. YES you want more torque.

MORE is always better

heres what I got

http://cgi.ebay.com/Hitec-645MG-HS6...14&_trkparms=72:1205|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

and I reccommend getting a kimbaugh servo saver while your at it, my metal gear servo stipped out my servo saver when I tried to turn the tires while stationary.
