Kraton Steering servo don't stop rotating

[bricoletout]

Hi everyone,

I need some help, it may be a noob question but I'm in the hobby for more than 10 year and I don't understand my new servo.
I bought this one https://www.banggood.com/JX-Servo-P...180-High-Voltage-Digital-Servo-p-1074872.html
but when I'm plugging it into my receiver It doesn't react as all the servo I met before. It don't stop rotating when I'm pulling my radio wheel. And there is no returning position.
How can I use it like a "normal servo" with a neutral position and endpoint ?

Thank you for your help.

Did you recalibrate the range? It's somewhere in the manual.
If that doesn't work, well: https://hobbyking.com/en_us/bms-660dmgplushs-super-strong-digital-servo-mg-14-2kg-17sec-52g.html

Thank you for your answer,
No manual delivered, I will try to find one.
I did nothing about recalibration the range...
The radio wheel act like a speed controller for the servo.

check you controls, that happen to me, and controller setting was on backwards
I flip the switch and it was fine.

I tried with normal and reverse on the radio channel for steering : same on both position...
Very new trouble for me

unplug your servo make sure the receiver lines with the "other" wires black to black ..red to red.

turn your controller on then turn your car on.try that one
don't plug your steering yet just put servo first, then turn it on it should center out, then attach your steering to the servo. maybe it spun prior to installing it.

video would be good also to show us

The manual that came with the car has the instructions on how to calibrate steering, not the servo manual.

Nothing about calibration in the manual of the car and it work well with an other servo so...
Here is a video, sorry my camera is very strange and can't focus
Thanks KrazyKraton14 , I will try your procedure.

For a 180° servo it is strange !

Page 24, "steering end points", thats what i mean. You should always check it with a new servo anyway, to be sure it doesn't try to go too far as this will cause it to break faster.

Thanks,
I have the Kraton V1, nothing about steering end point page 24...

It's a digital servo...someone forgot to program it at the factory. They never set neutral or the endpoints on it.

Hi everyone, I found what was hoing wrong. I asked directly to JX servo and they told me to look at the the tech infomation on the botton of the outside case of the servo. Banggood sent me a 360° version instead of a 180° asked.

Thank you for your help , I really appreciate.
