Status: offline 		Just got mine second hand and the wheels do not return to the center when you turn the wheels to the left. Cannot seem to find any evidence of binding so i changed the steering servo to a hs55 and the problem is still there. If you give the wheels a little tap they shoot back central like its catching on something anyone had this before

Status: offline 		I checked that and it looks a little worn but its not moving. Ordered alloy one to see if it helps. If i adjust the horn on the servo, it just sticks on the other side. Does anyone know what the torque is for the stock steering servo as not sure if the hs55 is up to the job. It turns the wheels fine but has not got the power to return all the way home.

Status: offline 		Try disconnecting the servo horn and turn the wheels by hand using the rod the servo pushes looking closely for where it may catch.
Then try using the radio to turn the disconnected servo and see if it moves all the way.

Only thing I can suggest.
But I am not an expert, I have only had my Vulcan SE for a week.
