I've got an RC10GT which I've run about seven or eight times so far. The steering seemed to work well at first but recently the steering servo has been returning to a slightly different neutral point depending on whether I turn left or right. This of course makes it somewhat difficult to keep the car going straight and I end up having to make constant small adjustments to my steering. I had a basic Futaba servo in there when the problem started and I just switched to a high torque steel geared servo and the problem is still persisting. I also hear kind of a glitching sound whenever the servo is being operated, even if I only barely touch the wheel. I am using the original steering linkage that came with the car but I do have a MIP Zero Maintainence steering upgrade on the way. Any ideas what is causing this? Thanks for any help.

glitching is most likely the prob do a search here about how to fix glitching and u could probly take it apart and clean it use some compressed air to blow away all the crap and a small bit of oil couldnt hurt.
 
If you replaced the servo, and you still have the same problem, it's likely a receiver issue or a bad servo saver.
