servo problem
 
i have went thru 3 servos already. after a few minutes of running the servo will stop moving in one direction. i have a futaba 3pm system with receiver. i put them on another receiver and they do the same thing. so i think i ruined 3 servos. anyone have this happen. do you think that receiver is ruining the servos.

one hpi sf5, one airtronics 95435, and one jr 8550, on a savage.

hmm savage doesnt use 2 servos like the erevo does it? i plugged the servo in the wrong port on the reciever with my riends erevo and sent 22.2 volts directly to the servo needless to day it didnt work after that.

its the nitro savage so it uses 2 servos. all three of them are my steering servos that tore up

Which servo are you blowing? Steering - check servo saver or get a stronger piece, throttle - check endpoint....

its the steering and i havent even run it yet. i pick up the front and turn it a few times and it does good for about a minute then its starts to only steer to the left and i have to move it by hand to the right. it wont even center up when i release the steering wheel. it run fine one day last week and i went to drive it the other day and bam no steering.

might be something wrong with your radio or reciever try a different radio and reciever
