Default steering questions

Hello I have a quick steering question my RC10GT has a hard time steering left. I upgraded my servo from a futuba 3003s to the traxxas 2055, yea I wish I could of gone with the hitec 645bbmg but I am new and want to keep my budget. But it turns right with easy but turning left seems difficult. ANy suggestions. I have played with the electronics part with no improvement, nothing looks broken, and an update from my last question I got it running and tuned ok, still have a little way to go. but I can actually drive it now so i am happy.

If you disconnect the servo from the steering linkage and move the steering by hand, does it move freely in both directions? No binding at all?

What if you operate the servo, with the steering linkage disconnected? Does the servo move "as far" in both directions ..?

This is what I would check - but also check the steering trim on your transmitter.

Make sure your servo saver is cranked down tight . Welcome to RCU :thumbup:

I figured it out, I put the little plastic piece on the servo at the wrong angle, but now it turns equal in both directions but not as sharp? My friend said something about Dual Rate on my radio, I looked it over and seen no such knob. Is that only offered on higher end radios? I have the airtronics blazer sport.
