Default Help!! New Buggy Steering & Issues?

I just bought a new Ofna Violator but there front wheels hardy turn left or right, when it's off I can turn the wheels fully in either direction but when powered there is next to no turn. Please help as it's my 1st buggy and it's bugging me.

Also when driving, it feels as though the brakes are on, when I pull back on the brake it just stops as though the throttle is about to die but doesn't. How do I know that its not dragging the brakes when I am driving?

Thanks

Sounds like your EPAs aren't set right on the radio. To check if the brakes are dragging, roll the buggy on the ground with your hand with the electronics on. You should be able to push it along easily.
