[Brendonz44]

my t maxx 3.3 every since i got it always have a problem first my ez start always slips and never starts and what piss me off the most it turns by itself and i can't hit and go fast cuz it turns to the right and crashes plz help me

 

[chickenman242]

Clean your one way bearing on your ez start with wd 40
Adjust your steering trim until it drives straight if that dont work take the servo saver off and centre it manually then reinstall

It sounds like the steering servo shimmy's back and forth on its own or the screw may be stripped from the servo saver. Try tightening the center screw and align to center as stated above. If all else fails, replace servo. They're cheap enough

i all ready fixed it just tryed it in my room on a dead battery didnt slip but where is the servo saver and how do i center it manually also i turned the alignment

 

[Guardog]

Take the bell crank arm off the servo, turn it on. The servo will center itself automatically. With the arm off, align the tires by sight and then reconnect the arm to the servo. Also helps to have fresh batteries

also when my truck got a transmission from a frequency and shot off into a curb and crashed and smashed so traxxas gave me 3 big tires and 1 small tire

 

[Guardog]

Why 1 small one ? Don't understand that. Would call them and get all 4 the same. Always make sure your transmitter is turned on prior to turning on the truck

Make sure after run is maintained EVERY time. Always use the after run oil and keep air filter spotless. Will avoid a lot of problems down the road

the steering servo moves on its own and twitches how can i get perfect alignment also thnxs for the help Guardog

 

[Guardog]

This happened in my spartan. The only fix is to replace servo. The servo is toast and beyond repair. They don't last forever. May have gotten moisture in it. They're cheap enough on eBay and easy to replace. This will fix your problem. Call traxxas for tires since they replaced them to begin with or buy trenchers or something similar. If you put tires on rims yourself, make sure to tape the inside of each tire with gorilla tape. This will prevent ballooning at high speeds

how cheap are the servos off ebay and thank u very much it been getting me so mad and i stop using my rc truck for a year but since u helped me ima get back into and me and my friends can race thank u very much

 

[Guardog]

They're probably around 20.00 for stock traxxas part. Glad I can help. There are a lot of good people on these sites that are very knowledgable. Also traxxas has a forum that is awesome. I'm on that forum as well. I've had my maxx for about 6 years along with 8 other cars / trucks. Plus helicopters, planes and boats. It's a great hobby and can be rewarding as well as frustrating. If I can help with anything else just pm me. I usually check this and the traxxas forum daily. Take care and enjoy your truck my friend

If your into racing then check out the jato. I have this one also. It's super fast. If you want simplicity of electric than look at the erevo. Mine does almost 80 mph on 6s lipo. They're both a beast and your friends won't even come close to catching you !
