4 new AA batteries (6.38 volts measured out) hooked up to the Rx pack and I placed the truggy on carpet ... will not move steering either way. I guess this means I am going to need a new steering servo as you said yesterday.
Will this servo do?

Will that work with Futaba type Rx connectors? Since the servos I have are Futaba style.
Thanks

Steve, That used M8+Spektrum is a good deal so long as it stays south of $200. But if you need a new radio and servos the most economical thing to do is to get the Spektrum DX3 Radio Receiver + 2 new servos for $250 at TRS on line store

Unfortunately, they are out of stock right now. If you're in a hurry AMain Hobbies has them:

Its a really good system, much better than the old DX2. I've heard nothing but good things about JR Servos - you cant go wrong there. (But you might need a new servo horn).
If you decide to just get one servo at this time definately consider the S3050 http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXFKZ7&P=ML and your current servo horn should bolt right up - If I remember right it was marked with an 'F'?
If I was you, I would get the DX3 system and have a new radio and servos and a decent warrantee. (just dont forget the servo horn).
Let us know what you end up doing.

What about this system?
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/16275
Would I need to get new servos if I got the DX3?
Thanks again for all the help

Steve, I have a JR Z-1 for sale. It's a year old and is equipped with a spektrum transmitter and one receiver for $300.00. I just realized you need servo's also and I would't be including any with mine. If anyone is interested PM me!

I have an 8ight for sale and a bunch of parts if anybody is interested let me know. I know everyone is gearing up for carpet racing so it's probably bad timing.
Gixxer - The avatar somehow disappeared! I know the tie-ups were unintentional... but please don't try to make it better by feeding me a french fry from your mouth. That image is now going to be stuck into my head the entire Winter. J/K man! I hope to stop by sometime if you guys ever run TT01 road course

Steve, the Spektrum DX3 comes with 2 servos, the Airtronics system does not. I have not yet seen a new MX3 FHSS at the track yet, but, based upon Airtronics reputation, I'm sure its every bit as good as Spektrum if not better.
You cant go wrong with a MX3 FHSS + servo of your choice.

Maybe its too late, but I really want this product to be my new sponsor.

I know for sure that a lot of the guys I race with can really benefit from Flat-D charcoal technology. I don't want to single anyone out, but Brad, this product could change your life.
