RE: HK Small Bolt Hydro same as HOTR

Ok, servo glued on. Still experiencing some servo case movement despite seeing no noticeble binding in the pushrod.
I think it has something to do with the servo arm geometry.
Like you, I also have more steering to the right than left . . . but as stated, races go clockwise so I guess it's okay.
I will try playing with the servo trim to see if I can correct the difference.
I think the servo arm is struggling with the Z-bend of the pushrod.

I am contemplating on trying out a ball connectoron the rudder and kwik link (airplane use) on the servo arm..
Well, trial and error . . . more bench tests to try and perfect this little critter.

Butat speeds, you reallywant to limit your steering ratio or you'll flip the boat when you turn abruptly. . . . just like in a real car.

5750Kv?

Just bench testing the Outrunner4200Kv and it's already screaming! What more with your 5750!
You will probably need the Octura x427 for that. Remember, the more Kv, the smaller diameter prop you will need.
