Use steering stops/limiter washers... more info here.

Warranty Policy:
Tekno RC is the only company in the industry that will give 50% off of parts if returned to them using the General Warranty return policy found on their website. The parts can be lightly used or completely abused, as long as the part is still being produced it's covered!

Some of our setups recommend using pistons that are enlarged. For instance 4x1.9 or 3x2.0. To drill the pistons we recommend the following:
GMK Supply Piston Drill Set
16PC Metric Bit Set Metric Sizes 2.00 to 3.00 MM.

Savox would probably be a good start. Usually around $60 at your LHS. I don't use them so I don't have suggestions on the models.

Yeah, I am curious how many vehicles tower is going to get in.

To be honest if you are open to used, I'd probably give a hitec 7955TG servo a look. Truck seems made for these.

Pete from Fierce just got back to me and told me 1.5 to 2 weeks for their next batch. Patience is a bitch!

You don't order from tower to get it shipped fast, you order for the price savings.

My order date is March 29th, previous was March 19th but got a better coupon so went with that.

So if you get it before me, will be like before
I went wih Tower strictly for the price savings. I get the military discount through Tekno which is really good, however, tower just beat them with free shipping. I don't like waiting, but I'll wait when I can save money.

yeah, fiercercsolutions would have been my goto if I needed it right away as the price and ship time were great still.

So, any race reports from anyone? If you have one, also post your conditions.

I think the big thing I am looking to find out is how it handles in loose big track conditions, etc with the new suspension geometry.

I would stay away from the regular voltage ti gear savox servos, HV ones may be ok as they will draw less amps from the bec.

Most people you hear say they dont have problems are using them in low amp draw cars like 1/8 buggy or light 1/10 cars like buggy or 2wd sct.
Or they are very lucky

Throw that servo in a high amp draw car like a heavy 2 cell sct setup and that poor esc may not be able to take it.

I have driven the truck with the HS-7955. Good feel, not sure of long term durability. Not enough time on it. DS1015's have worked well for me in the past.
