Hi there,
I am new to this, just recently got a cheap HSP RTR monster truck to try out nitro RC for the first time. It has been running fine, but now the steering is really limited (only turns very slightly in a very wide arc).
I've read a lot of posts on this and other forums about it, and done a few checks:
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Jeff
I am new to this, just recently got a cheap HSP RTR monster truck to try out nitro RC for the first time. It has been running fine, but now the steering is really limited (only turns very slightly in a very wide arc).
I've read a lot of posts on this and other forums about it, and done a few checks:
- The physical steering is working fine if I push/pull the steering arm (when disconnected from the servo)
- The same problem occurs if I replace the on-board batteries
- I switched the steering/throttle channels on the receiver. The steering then works fine with the trigger, but the throttle servo now has the limited range of movement.
- Put everything back how it should be, dismantled the transmitter to check no loose connections behind the steering wheel. All looks fine (to my inexperienced eyes at least).
- Battery indicator on the transmitter is green, so no battery issues there.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Jeff
