Default Servo wining???

I don't know how else to describe it. I have two spektrum s6040 servos and in both vehicles they are extremely loud. Would something like this help

Thanks!

Still noisy at neutral? Or noisy at end travel? Remove the horns, noisy still? If quiet, something binding the steering or throttle& brakes.

It is noisy at neutral. Then during travel it stops. Haven't tried it without the horn on there. One car has a metal horn the other is plastic idk if that makes a difference

Agree with what Geez is saying, make sure you don't have any binding in your steering system and that your servo horn is tight but not overtight (binded).

My B5M has a Savox SV-1273TG Digital servo on it and it is very loud as well. Just seems that some manufacturers are louder than others. Once mine is centered it stops whining (for the most part) but any pressure on it and it whines pretty loud trying to counter the pressure.

okay, i think I may have had the servo horn a little too tight. It seemed to be quiet at neutral at least now

It's completely normal for these savox/spektrum servos to be loud.
