SCX6 Trail Honcho Gets a Needed Servo Upgrade!

- The standard servo in the SCX6 Trail Honcho seemed to be getting a bit tired, felt a bit underpowered and failed to reach full lock often. I picked up a Spectrum S9120BL High Voltage Metal Gear 1/5th Scale Servo and show the install process I used, followed by some crawling footage with the new servo. Keep Crawling!

1/6 is powerful and good😎👍🎶
Looks like a good upgrade. 🤘🤘🤘 Subbed!!!
Thanks! Going to update the voltage setting soon as well, will likely have a follow up video in that.
yeah, my stock servo didn't last long. I replaced it with Power Hobby 80kg. I also went ahead and got a warranty exchange for the stock servo. The stock servo fits nicely in the Honchos storage box along with a few tools in order to have a spare on the trail.
Not bad, could still open a ticket for a replacement but not sure I will. I wish they had used this from the beginning but prob a cost thing.
I put the primal rc for the rampage 1/5. The steering is much better I just need the v2 program box so I can put it on 7.4 volts then it be way stronger
I plan to pick up a programmer as well.
Can i ask what kind of camera you install at the the top of your rc thanks..
@@gliftongaming756 I have used both my iPhone and a GoPro 9. Just used double sided tape mounts.
Planning on getting this, my scx6 is stock so I need to upgrade anything else for this to work fine ?
Pretty plug and play from what I can remember, but you might want to pick up a spektrum programmer to update the bec voltage to take full advantage of the new servo.
@@DustinsAdventure do you say this one is better than 80KG one? powerhouse and also did you connect your battery to this servo ?
Did you try a UBEC with 8.4V to see the max performance?
I bumped up the voltage with a spektrum programmer after this video for a bit more juice. It helped, but wasn’t too life changing for the rig.
The ESC BEC can be bumped up to 7.2V but that could potentially be over voltage for the transmission Servo and the LED kit. Did you have any problems with those electronics when you bumped BEC voltage up?
@@samidkhan2000 using the spektrum programmer it was easy to up bec to 8.4, I had no side effects from doing so. I’m not fully certain how isolated the other systems are but it didn’t seem to change the behavior of anything else.
Get a programmer v2 and turn up the bec to 7.4 volts
Thanks, I will check this out, is it 6v from the factory?
@@DustinsAdventure yes
How has the shift servo held up at 7.4 volts? I see it is only rated for 6v. I know flying planes in the past have have run some Futaba servos that were just rated at 4.8 at 6 with no problems.
