Status: offline 		Sometimes retro. It could be the weather too. You can try just increasing the idle a little bit to help it start. Bring it up to where it will stay running without engaging the clutch. You can always back it off 1/8th of a turn at a time till you get it set perfect. You may still have to make minor adjustments as the weather changes though.

eminent, I was looking to increase the turning not the speed itself. The servo I have is fast, its just the stock servo horn is very short. By using a longer horn I was able to cut the turn radius down. But the only problem is that the longer horn flexes a bit more then I like. Id like to get an alum one but I havent been able to find a long one like the plastic.

Status: offline 		well i got a 1800mhz 6v hump pack for about $20 and it last a long while. you have to change the plug from the on/off switch but i spliced the new plug and the 4xaa"s plug together so if the hump runs out and im far away from a charger i can still use AA's . the 12v charger i have was $30 but i needed it anyway to charge the 7.2v battery for my roto start .
