Default Genesis Steering

My genesis does not like to turn unless it is moving and even then it does not turn that great. Any suggestions, higher torque servo, etc. Any help appreciated

Hi Schrage, when I got my GST, all the guys here advised me to get the Hitec 5955TG servo for the steering and to run a battery hump pack instead of normal AA batteries. It does take a bit to turn the wheels of this big truck, but with these upgrades, I haven't had a problem with steering since. Good Luck

My servo saver kept coming loose, used some plumbers tape and it helped. Well untill I crashed good, then it unscrewed a little and still saved the servo. With the tape the stock servo could barely move the tires sitting still. I'm looking to get a 200-300 oz servo one day.

Where can i find a 200-300 oz servo? I checked out the mod on how to make it a dual servo steering system. But I didn't see what to do with the forward reverse servo.
