Servo Failure
 

HiGuys

I have a Thunder Tiger Tomahawk BX 1/10 nitro buggy which runs the 2.4ghz radio system.

I have had lots of problems burning the throttle servos out and wonder if anyone could give any thoughts?

The original servo the car came with failed in the off position, I then purchased 2x hi-tec servos which both failed in the ONpositions (not good on full power!!)....Have also had a MG servo fail too.Generally you cant run anymore than a couple of tanks of fuel through the car before they fail. Ihave the servo trims set so its not pushing the arm once the carb is fully open either.

Could it be I have a problem with the radio gear or an issue with the voltage in the car? wonder if others have had problems like this??

Hope someone can help

Thanks

Hi

It takes 4x AA batteries which are 1.5v to power the steering and throttle servo's. So its 6v pack controlling these.

Thanks
