Hi,
Sorry for such a simple question, but I'm completely new to this.
Anyway, my son's RC car no longer steers properly and I'm wondering if this is because the steering servo has burned out (even though it apparently has a 'servo saver' capability) or just the result of one of his crashes.
I'll try and describe what it's doing; The car no longer steers while driving, and even when I pick it up off the ground (to reduce friction in the tyres and steering), the wheels only move slightly. I can hear the servo trying to shift the tyres, but they hardly move at all. On the odd occasion they manage to move all the way one side or another, but it's sparodic; and mostly they just twitch.
Can someone tell me how I'd know if the servos is burned out?
Thanks in advance for you help!
Regards
Mick
