Default Mini-T Baja Speed Control HELP!

I have the mini-t baja with stock electronics and my problem is the steering servo. When i hook up the speed control to the reciever everything is fine, but when I plug my steering servo into the reciever the steering servo turns as fast as it can. It broke my gears in the servo so basicly the motor in the servo is just turning. The transmitter seems to have no effect on the steering, but when I pull the trigger for throttle it works. I am confused! I called the electronic help line but all they said was to send it in to test. I do not like waiting....PLEASE HELP! []

Sounds like a faulty servo or receiver. I'm guessing you don't have spares (perhaps from another RC car?) lying around that you can use to test? It doesn't sound like you could be doing anything wrong, as the throttle is working...you may have to send it in bud...

But thats what I do not understand. I have tried 2 kinds of servos and both act the same way. I really think it is in the reveiver or speed control now. I HATE snail mail! hahah
