Savox 1283
Hey anybody running a Savox 1283 in there ET48? If so what servo horn are you using? The 25t Tekno one doesn't work. I have it up on the spline and still rubs and binds on the top of the servo. Any ideas greatly appreciated!!!

I had a strange issue with a new Et48 build. The steering keeps getting off center. The servo horn is tight and I even cranked the servo saver tight. When you have power to the truggy and the servo is centered you can actually grap the wheels and turn them about an inch. The ackerman screws are tight. The posts are centered into the chassis. Confusing. I am using a protek Chad Bradley servo in the truggy. I have two Eb48s and I had an Et48 before and I never had this issue before. I know that if you put pressure on the servo savor it snaps back to center because of the spring but mine does not do that
Well, I tore the cams back apart and for some reason there is slop in the cam. Not sure why but i ordered new cams.

There was a similar issue on the very first run of the eb48. Here is a quote describing how to fix the problem and make everything in the servo saver center properly.
SERVO SAVER CENTERING
So we have looked into some of the servo saver inconsistencies and found a solution for the wandering. Please see attached image. The face highlighted in blue needs to be sanded down about 0.1mm. The flashing from the mold prevents the servo saver from seating 100%. After doing this and tightening the spring down, it will hold as intended.
We'll look into a fix for this in the future, but it requires a mold change so it won't be the fastest fix ever. What is outlined above works great though.
