      It does help somewhat. The problem lies with the front wheels never being on the ground unless under brake. So it requires you to turn the wheel when going forward, then apply the brakes to help the tires bite to turn. I feel this is a flaw for sure in this weak steering set up. Curious to see what other people say. Thanks for the input!

      I changed my center diff fluid to 20 million weight and that helped Alot. Between light braking, upgraded servo saver and the diff fluid it handles much better. Wheels more on demand even when on wet pavement.

    Mine does same, i threw a 25kg metal gear servo in it ,i thinl its the design flaw of there servo saver i could be wrong, and you need to put low voltage cut off to 1st option which is 3.2v, default setting car ran 5min on a 9000mah 120c 4s lipo, almost sent truck back do to that but i did research and found the solution

    I dont know how much experience you have with rcs in general, once you buy in youll end up reolacing a lot of the stock electronics if you stick with it for a while. Servos are one of the first things to upgrade usually

  • @chrisadams9548
    @chrisadams9548 2 місяці тому

    Sitting still is not a true representation, when the truck starts moving you’ll get the response you are looking for. Although I did upgrade my Kraton 4S with an AGFRC 55Kg digital servo and it has more than enough torque and tighter steering radius. You should also set your steering end points on the radio a long with throttle response, plenty of videos on how to do that. Truck is fine.

      I did. And it made a world.of a difference. To bad the reverse randomly craps out and stops working. It seems to be a common issue with the V2 all black ESC from spektrum. And, Arrma won't respond to my emails. Just picked up a Mojave 4s today and it seems they switched back to the orange and black v1 ESC's
