How difficult is it to install a steering servo? I'm a newbie. does it involve taking a bunch of things apart?

pretty sure you will get this one fairly easy. Just try and route your wires clean so they don't get in the way when closing your radio box.
 
I'm a total noob too and managed this one pretty easy. Jon 2 is right, be sure to watch how you route the wires I managed to cut my throttle servo wire with the radio box lid on day 1 of ownership and had to do a double servo swap for my stupidity.
 
once you have started puting it in it will seem like you already know how to do it. simple
 
My buddy Dean just bought a Savage 25 and we broke it in the day he got it. At the end of the day he went into the radio box for something and when he closed her up he lost control. Same thing the radio box cut the steering servo wire, a lesson learned. Be careful with the radio box and your wires.

Just for that very same reson, I always zip-tie the hell out of the servo and battery wires before I close the box. With the amount of zip-ties I use, I kinda wish I had the pattent right's :cheerful:
