BECAUSE STOCK LENGTH IS BEST LENGTH!

Bc i love the body that i have now, and before i ordered these i was looking and the body looks JUST right with where the wheels are placed according to how the body sits with the stock length tvps.
With the ext tvps it would have looked odd where the back wheels would be sitting with the body on the truck and i wouldnt have liked it.

Why you gotta do this man
#58
Well everything is DONE!
got the bearings in today and got to work and got everything put back together!
Here are the finishing pics of the new servo saver..
Although i have one question, with the new servo and hump pack this servo should be pushing 333oz of tq, but it doesnt seem to really "whip" the wheels back and forth like i thought it would, i got it all together and set it on my work table and the wheels moved more than they used to obviously, but not real far..
so my question is.. am i just expecting to much? or is this horn maybe not right? Do i need a regular "longer" horn? Will that make it turn better/more?
I havent driven it yet so who knows it might turn like crazy but it just doesnt seem like it will...

You MUST replace your "Disc" type plane servo horn to a standard one.
No need a long standard servo horn, it should be at 90 degree with the horn linkage when your front wheels are straight, if not you'll get a "mechanical effect" of EXP (Exponential)...
