Losi 8ight buggy Servo Issue
Hey guys,
I have a HiTec HS-5645MG servo installed in my Losi 8ight buggy as my throttle servo. The problem I have is with the saver/memory setting. When the receiver is cut off from the transmitter, the servo automatically sets itself to full throttle!
Info on servo: http://www.rcuniverse.com/pgarchive/Hitec_HS-5645MG.htm
The controller I use is a Spektrum DX 2.0. I've been told 2 things, that either I can program the servo via the Spektrum (which I don't know how to do) or just buy and install another servo. The description in the link above states that the servo is programmable. So my question is, how do I program it? I would like to get it set to where when it goes into "saving" mode, that it will do the opposite of full throttle!
Any help would be appreciated!
TIA,
Mak

RE: Losi 8ight buggy Servo Issue
So you are saying that if you turn off your transmitter it goes to full throttle? First of all, you shouldn't ever do that. If the failsafe position is set (which it should not be as the default) then you can reprogram a new failsafe point with the HPP-21 PC programmer. It can be purchased here: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXWCE8&P=7
