Need Help

[Evan999]

It seems that my Steering Servo is Week. When i steer truck at a stand still the tires will not move, but when the truck is moving it is fine. I have changed the batteries 2 times as i thought that might be the problem.

We need a lot more information to help. Type of truck, battery, servo?

It's just your servo probably just to weak and i would get a 6v rechargeable pack.

Thats usually normal. Depending on your rig, most stock servos will struggle to turn the wheels when at a stand still.

Please read our rules. Everyone needs help, so "Need help" is not an effective title.

From our forum rules:

Thread titles

The TOS calls for thread titles to be descriptive. This is both to benefit the original poster as well as others who are looking for info on similar topics. To keep things looking professional, thread titles should follow certain guidelines. Below are some tips for composing appropriate thread titles -

• Titles should be both descriptive AND informative - "Help!!!!!!!!" is not a good thread title, and "Help with motor" is not much better. Something like "Need help with HPI Blitz suspension setup" conveys an appropriate level of detail.

It isn't asking too much and certainly isn't that difficult. This hobby requires a certain amount of patients. Especially at first. Asking your questions clearly is the first step to success. I know it sounds cheesy, but it's the truth. Be patient, and you will be rewarded.

your rig may have a servo saver that saves the servo from being damaged if you hit somthing.. its a big servo horn with a spring inside it to save the servo from damage if hitting the curb and such things

It's normal. There is a LOT of resistance with big tires standing still. It's the same as a real truck without power steering. YOU are the servo, and sitting still is a real workout to turn the wheel. Once you're rolling it's effortless.
