Dead Multiplex Rhino Servo
Hi I’ve got a Multiplex Rhino Digi 4 servo & its dead, I’ve pulled it apart, checked the leads & they are getting power & signal.
Its not the radio or RX as I have crossed checked with other servos.
The circuit board looks fine.
Any ideas??

RE: Dead Multiplex Rhino Servo
Since you did all teh troubleshooting you can do, you should call MultiPlex and warranty the servo. It i probably a factory defect.

RE: Dead Multiplex Rhino Servo
They do have a habit of just giving up when used without a regulator. They are very sensitive to the overvoltage that our big fat packs give when freshly charged, it's their only weakness, and they don't all suffer from it. I have 3 and never had the problem, but I know a guy who blew two in a row, now he uses a regulator. You shouldn't have any trouble getting MP to warranty it.
