The other one is the one Jimmy and others mentioned, with the ballcup fouling on the front of the servo near full right lock. Running Savox LP servo with 2.5mm spacers. I have done a little dremelling to the underside of the top brace to deal with the other ball joint but now the only coice seems to be find a small ballcup or dremel the existing ballcup or the servo.
There are lots of things to like and marvel at on this car but the steering could do with a little more flexibility in the design, the tolerances are just too tight/non existent.

i also had the issue with binding on the steering rack there was a very small burr on the fixed part of the rack which i removed with a small needle file and is now free.
i am also using a 1251 low profile i found by just slightly altering the underside of the bulkhead ie removeing a bit of the plastic there was enough clearance for the servo horn and ball cup without having to alter the ball cup at all.
