Hi Guys

Got a GS Avenger RTR and a prob with the steering.

For some reason when you turn left, something gets stuck and does

not return to the straight position by itself. When you turn right its fine.

Servo is a brand new Hitec Hi Torque Titanium servo which works fine.

Any ideas?

Can't see anything that would affect the steering.




Cheers

Probably a gear failure in the servo. It is a Hitec after all.

Check your servo saver assembly for dirt!
Clean it lube it and see if it still does this problem.

If you tightened down your turnbuckles to adjust the toe you may have screwed the turnbuckle to far in the rod end and it is hitting the ball.

I still vote for a duff servo. Striped teeth on the gears sound most likely. Your other segestions dont expliain why its fine in one direction.

Thanks Guys, the servo is fine.

Its def in the linkage somewhere.

Will consider all your thoughts and keep looking.

cheers

If your convinced it the linkage, look for screws scraping the lower arms at the end of the ackerman plate or check the bearings on the posts are OK. But I still think this is more than likely a servo prob.

easy enough to check out...disconnect the servo arm from the servo and see if the steering moves freely.

Can't say exactly, I just pulled it aapart cleaned and oiled everything,

and all worked of when I put it back together.
