Default Tornado S30 - Steering Servo problem

Hi all, I'm having problems with the steering servo when I turn left and release the controller wheel the car wheels come back to center position but when I turn right they try to come back to center but they don't fully do it.
I replaced batteries, checked everything and nothing seems to be broken.

I would appreciate some help!

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Martin

sounds like the steering servo has failed. i had it happen before on one of mine.
if its less than 90days old, redcat will replace the servo for you. just fill out the warrenty form on their website.

if its older than that, grab a $15 metal geared servo off www.hobbypartz.com

It's a week old, but I'm not in the US and it will be cheaper and faster to replace it.
I just wanted to be sure before getting one.
Do you recommend any specific model?

Thanks for you fast answer!

any standard sized servo that is metal geared, with at least 125-150oz of torque will do the job!
