has anyone else a a problem with there steering not centering? I have ball bearings in my bellcranks and a jr Racing servo and no mater what it will not center,:doh: it always is just alittle off one way or the other. I've set and reset the trim on my TX and it just does it again. it makes it realy hard to drive at 50 + mph. I've checked the linkage for slop, the wheels are on tight. I'd rather not have to by a digital servo for it but thats the only thing i can think is left to do. :radio:
Help me please
 
alright speed - try this:
1. How tight is ur servo saver? if it is not tightened to the max, it will cause your steering to wobble.
2. Are u using a stock servo? if u r - thorow it away, that is what is causing it. stock servos only put out about 40oz of torque, and the variations in the road will cause bump steer.
3. U have replaced the servo, or already have a high torque servo and it still veeres? check the toe in/toe out? if 1 wheel is 3 degrees toe out and the other 1 degree, this will cause the car to veer.


hope those ideas help.
 
Hey, try looking at the link going from the servo to the steering ball. I shortened, lengthened it and I got it to the proper toe.
Hope this helps
Peter
