I dont know a ton about servos so a little help please:

I currently have a Hitec in it and was wondering if different servos can give you a different "throw" or a bigger "throw" from left to right? It is a carpet truck and when blazing around the track it turns quite well. The problem is if I run slow or just putting around it takes extremely wide turns and doesn't seem to have the same turning radius as when I play at WOT.

Any thoughts?..........
 
Sounds like your servo is either too slow or doesn't have enough ass to move the wheels quickly enough. Thats just a guess though...seing as how its a hitec I'm gonna guess the speed on it is just slow. What model Hitec is it? do you know what the torque and speed rating is on it?
 
An 8ight B may use the same servo as the 8-T which is also the same as the XXL. If it is then its rated (If I remember correctly) at about 180oz/in and .17 seconds. Not the worst servo you can get ahold of but not exactly beefy either. Still its not a terrible servo seems like it would be ok for a T4. not sure bro.
 
My RPM suspension arms were binding up cause it was such a tight fitment. I opened up the holes and everything freed right up. Seems like it was all binding up under little to no load
