I got the new Granite 4x4 about two weeks ago. Took it out for the first run and clipped (Barely) a step. The wheels became locked to the left because the tiny plastic splines in the horn and the tiny plastic splines on the servo slipped and repositioned the center. I took it apart and recentered the servo horn and took it back out. The splines were rounded off from the hit and as I drove it slowly slid off of center. I adjusted the trim until it was too much. I emailed the warranty department at Hobbico and just like everyone else, they’re sending me a ads-7m. In the meantime I had ordered 2 servo saver/horns and I put one of the new ones on this morning. Took it out for another drive and same thing happened when I bounced off a root. So, I’m waiting to see if the Metal splined servo will help. Two concerns from my prospective.
1- the plastic saver/horn has barely any depth to the grooves that connect it to the servo, it’d be nice to see them changed so they are a little beefier.
2- I just bought my kids 3 Arrma Voltage RC’s and unless I’m missing something it looks like they have the same setup. Hopefully I don’t have to do a warranty claim on all them as well.
Disclaimer: I do know how to drive, it was just dark and didn’t have much room. My Kraton wouldn’t have even slowed down from the hits I took.
