Status: offline 		Could I get some input regarding servos for the Volcano, please?

Most of the Futaba radio packages come with S3003 (standard) and/or S3010 (high torque) servos. You can get the radio with 2 of one, 2 of the other or 1 of each. Which is most appropriate for the Volcano? And if it is one of each as I suspect, which needs the high torque, steering or throttle?

Status: offline 		Yeah ill have to check out those 90mm dogbones. Nah i dont have anyone to run with , but i recently purchased some property and plan on making a little track or something. I hope to lure othes into this great sport. Lots of people watch me in the neighborhood, i honestly dont think many people have seen such rcs around here. There may be lots but i dont know them. lol Some of my buddies are talking about getting some to run wit me. When i get settled in to my 6 acres. and have a track built it will be much better.. Privacy and in the deep woods. No neighbors, we can play all nite long. Yeah i plan on making some vids for you guys soon as this weather straightens up. Raining for like 2 days now and supposed to for 3 more. But that justs give me time to improve on my rc's. Even though i dont own a crawler i thinking having a scale winch would be cool. Am working on one for volcano, not like ill use it but looks cool. And may have to pull some haters rc sometime lol. I do have one friend who is building a rc truck for truck pulls, that may be neat.

You can never go wrong with a Higher torque servo (especially for Steering), but the Futaba 3003 is a nice improvement over the Stock Redcat servo. Its what I have in MY Volcano SV and it works fine.....

I would go with the 2 servo package and replace Both of the Stockies....

Status: offline 		My volcano just locked up, The car wont go forward the flywheel is spinning, and it looks like the cluthch is trying to engage but it wont. If i try to roll the car on the ground it wont move because the wheels are locked up, but i can spin one wheel at a time and the opposite wheel will go the other direction like usual because of the diffs. PLEASE HELP This was all caused from landing on the rear wheels from a small jump
