HEy guys.

Well I was setting the fail save on my R1 radio.. and then I tuned off my TX.

Thinking that it had lost contact.. the fail safe activated (in the RX) and it applied full brakes (I programmed it to do so).

But unfortunately I think the steering servo was working too hard or whatever and now it wont respond.

Funny.. if the servo was working so hard, shouldnt the batteries be dead? theyre not.

The throttle servo I have is pretty cheap.. but I'm still pissed that it just died.

Its an FMA Coreless servo.

The gears arent broken, but when I try to turn it by hand, its pretty hard. TOO hard. Something is definitely wrong.

I'm thinking about the Hitec 5925 (I have the 5945 for steering).
Any other suggestions?
I'm looking for Digital Coreless and looking to spend less than or about $100.
