Default Savage being?

Meh, my savage is being mental.. i think its something with the electroics, on the savage, or the radio. the servos will sit there and flutter, and it wont stay turned the way your turning, keeps straightning out.. also the throttle isnt responsive and it sticks sometimes..

I would think either you are getting interference or your batteries need to be changed. Low voltage from week batteries can do that.

Make sure there none of the batteries are in backwards. I know this sounds kind of dumb but you never know! Are all the servos doing this or just one of them?

ha mine did that for awhile when i first installed my z650m and so i changed the batteries and now it works like a dream...you also have to make sure there are no large trucks or anything that might be runnin cb or am radios because this can make them go crazy.
