HPI people if you reading ---- I am VERY impressed with all the molded parts on the car. But this one part needs to be addressed. Just open up the C a little bit would prevent any binding.
take care

I just use a high torque servo.
Actually I'd rather have them tight than loose so I don't have to worry about the part being shaky and affecting handling.
