I have a 5925 digital servo that I use for steering on my 1/10 car, an Asso B4. I own this servo from about an year, and it has always worked fine. Suddenly it started to pause when returning to center. I can turn one way, but when I go to turn it to center or the opposite direction - it sort of pauses then turns the intended direction. If I turn slowly in both diretions it works, but if I turn faster, it starts to pause. One or more seconds pause! I have read another one has had the same problem with the same servo in the past. I own an Hitec 4 Flash Pro tx/rx with LRP 7.1 ESC and a Sanwa (Airtronics) M8 tx/rx with Mamba Maxx ESC. Same problem. I also checked the servo with the Hitec HFP-10 Digital Servo Programmer and it works FINE. unbelievable
Any help ?? It needs TLC? I presently live in Italy, can I find a service here?
Thanks in advance
Alex

Has the servo always been used with this equipment or is this a new setup and a new problem? Whats teh BEC amperage rating on that LRP ESC? Is this problem occuring with the Flash or the M8 or both radios?

Hi Brendan,
thank you for your fast reply. Yes, the servo has always been used with this setup and it's a new problem that occurs with both radios. The ESC is a LRP 7.1 digital, you can find the spec here
It's a good ESC as Mamba. I don't understand why the servo works fine with the Hitec HFP-10 Digital Servo Programmer. Any suggestion?
Alex

Originally it sounded like maybe a motor issue but if it works properly when connected to teh programmer then it sounds like a voltage/amperage issue (not getting enough). If the servo acts up only when ther eis a load applied to it then I would say you are exceding the amperage limit of the ESC's BEC current.

I have the same problem with my HS-5965MG . I'm using Novak GTB and I can not get it to center.(no load) I changed radios and everthing. My 645 worked fine. Do I need to send it back?????

Mike G, I would send it to make sure all is well.
