how am I suppost to take the arm off from the horn?

 

[Monkey Wrench]

Unscrew it.

 

[NegativeBeef]

with what? doesn't look like a normal screw

anyways thanks a bunch guys, ok I just took the horn off and zeroed in the servo. However, when I try to put it back, no matter how I line up the arm it always go in crooked.

Umm... isn't the arm the same as the horn? Just two names for the same thing?

Servo arm
Servo horn

Once you take the screw out, the horn (arm) should slide off the servo if you pull up on it from the servo.

 

[NegativeBeef]

wait arm and horn are the same thing? uh oh

 

[NegativeBeef]

Ok I took a picture.


See, no matter how I attach the horn it keeps coming out crooked like this.

Neither servo is centered. Take the horns off (the raindrop looking pieces). Turn your RX and TX on. Put the steering trim settings to 0 and the EPA's to 100.

Now, hold the wheels straight with one hand, but the servo horns back on, then screw them down.

Also, the servo on the left. Looks to me like the steering arm link is set into the horn more than the one on the right.

I don't think there's a thing wrong with the servos, I just don't think you're centering them correctly.

Ok I see what you're talking about, I just fixed that so they're both the same length. But I still can't get either of the horns to be centered.

ok how do I get out a stripped screw?

 

[Monkey Wrench]

Take a Dremel tool and cut a slit in the top of the screw head then unscrew it with a flat head screwdriver.

 

[NegativeBeef]

what does a dremel tool look like and where can I get one online?

 

[Monkey Wrench]

Go to Google, search Dremel tool.

 

[NegativeBeef]

that looks really complicated
