I already loosened those small set screws at ball joint shoulders as they were too tight but still it wont center.
Anyone else with the same problem?
Try lowering your servo end points. I believe there exists a point of no return where if your servo pushes the steering too far it gets stuck/jammed. I have my epas down to 50-60% using the same servo as you.


Michael, You should be able to transplant your electronics no problem but I will have to say that that motor might be overkill for a drifter, plus I would prefer a sensored motor setup. It will work in the meantime though.

I have a 7.5t motor in mine and find I used about 10% of the throttle. I actually bought a 13.5 motor to put in it's place but I havent wired it up yet.
