get a bigger hammer?

Assuming you are using allen wrenches, have you tried using a cheater, like a pair of pliers or something to give you more torque?

[ckeast420]

do you have any t handles by any chance?

 

[HSPGuy2190]

nope , how do u guys think the engine is bolted to the chassis? ...... with screws , so iv got screw drivers

 

[mrbones]

On several of my motor screws, I've had to grind down the tip of my screw driver so that it goes deep in to the screw head and gets a better grip. I have also had to use channel locks. If worst comes to worst, you might have to get out the drill and drill off the heads. And don't be cussin' on this site because there are many young people reading everything we write and they will kick you off for it because it is a violation of the rules of conduct. .

The line that connects to the top cap of the tank goes to the exhaust pipe. The other (or back one) goes to the bottom of your fuel tank and hooks up to the carb.

Glad to hear you got it repaired

 

[hamz9561]

A hammer is used to tap the hex driver in to:

1 Better seat the driver
2 Loosen the thread sealer if any.

For the same price roughly you can get one of these which is better:

However if you want a really good budget priced servo thats also good quality then Id suggest one of these:

Anyone has a used one of this cheapservoman servos?

Just want to know if theyre worth getting over an original losi 8ight servo

Thanks guys

If your not looking for a real upgraded servo, but maybe a little more resistant to nature, the Traxxas 2055 is a standard size factory servo that is waterproof.

If your going to spend the buck for a servo that you wont look back on, look into Savox.

But all n all, a cheap servo is well, a cheap servo...

IMO I would prefer to upgrade and never look back

t handles or a loose allen with vise grips on the shaft. they are pretty tight though. I've been through this too. use a good allen to not strip the head or bigger troubles are in store for you.

I totally agree. The steering servo in my XL crapped out a couple of weeks after I bough it. I replaced it with a Savox 1256 titanium gear servo. Then A few days later the throttle servo went. I had a Traxxas 2056 waterproof servo lying around that i threw in it. That was over a year ago and I haven't had any problems since.
