I'm running Novak GTB combo, Sanwa 431 rx, HiTec 5925 digital servo & NiMH batteries.

I've ruled out the TX because it doesn't do it with my 2wd, I'm wondering if the speedo's power capacitor isn't charging or not charged enough to power the servo at that point?

Anyone got any ideas or experienced the same, any help would be much appreciated
Firstly, the power cap is there to help the fets in the esc drive better.....

If you are getting no steering throw, I would first look at the servo saver before anything else.
