As far as the "steering servo" goes, it is not faulty, it is just a standard, plastic geared servo.

When driven hard (read - crashed lots) the plastic gears will strip.

Of course the manufacturers could put their better metal geared one in, but it would make the car dearer to buy to start with.

If you added things like better shocks, higher spec engine, better servos, chassis braces etc etc, you would then have a car the same "spec" as the Hyper 8.5 RTR that they do and sadly the same price too! For those who want the "better" stuff as standard get the 8.5 for those who want the best value for money (read - cheapest priced) get one of the three Hyper 7's....
