Status: offline 		Ok, I received a brand new (or so they say) sfl-10 servo from a 5B for my KM, plug it in, turn everything on, and it does not work...any suggestions other than getting a refund?

I've tried 2 different radio systems, and nothing...

Status: offline 		the throttle works just fine, i tried switching the channels, even tried a different receiver on all 3 channels and nothing..even tried my throttle servo on ch1-ch3 and everything worked..

i had just opened the box that it came in, took the radio box out of my KM Baja, plugged in the servo, turned everything on and it just didnt respond...its being send back tomorrow for a full refund, and i'm just going to pick one up locally

Status: offline 		Yes, dead sfl-10. Very common from what I am continuously hearing lately. They're failing all the time, so often I hear about it that I can't help thinking that they must have a QA issue lately, or are cutting corners to maximise profit.

Crap servos, lets be honest. I really wouldn't recommend buying another. Save the money for a decent servo.
