Granite Granite 3S BLX steering question

[Ramner]

Hello fellow bashers! So I am new to the rc game and I got a granite it's been a blast the last 6 months or so. But the last time I was running it I noticed that the steering was acting a little off. Turning left was fine and and returning back to straight worked as should be. But when I would turn to the right and allow the wheels to go back to the straight position it was no longer a smooth transition it had a stutter. And is a slow return to straight wheels. Any recommendations on a fix?

Your servo is starting to go out. There are lots of threads in the forum for diff options.

Definitely the servo. I had the same problem. Just warranty the stock servo. I bought this one and no problems since definitely recommend. You will need a 25T servo saver also and it will need to be slightly modified to fit. Plenty of good videos and tutorials on 'how to'.

Or he just buys the red one from ARRMA. It has 25T and is for the V2. Fits perfect on a replacement 25T servo in the V3.

That's true. I didnt go that route myself so I didnt think about that option. That is another good way to go.

Thanks for the info I will order a new servo.

I would also suggest reaching out to HorizonHobby and getting a warranty replacement, even if you do order an upgraded servo. Might as well have a free spare backup. Biggest hurdle will be getting HH to respond to the warranty request.

Just another suggestion: If you don't want to go with a 25t servo and source a 25t servo saver you could get a 6s servo and throw that puppy straight in. That's what I did with my Granite and it holds up nicely being that its an 18kg servo vs the weak 7kg

The Amazon specials 25 or 35 kg servo is only 15-25$. It'll take a 25t saver. There may be 1 u could get real real cheap. In this forum.
