savox 1251 problem

[capt-flatout]

i have a savox 1251mg and it has an annoying problem when you go to fast from left to right it cuts out and resets the receiver? it`s as if it`s draining all the power. have any of you had this issue before and what was it?

[neallewis]

it's drawing too much current. common problem with savox servos.
Use this: http://www.rccarshop.co.uk/index.php...protector.html

or make one up with a 4700uF 10v electrolytic capacitor and a servo plug.

Etronix also have a power cap available to do this

il also had this issue when i ran that servo with a spektrum radio set.its cheap as chips to make your own power cap but for the price you can get them for now id save your self the hassle and buy 1.

The savox can draw over 2A, check the technical specs here

I tried it on a Pace 45-R with a power cap, no luck, ended up swapping in an alternative. Some people seem to get them working with a power cap so for the cost of them it's worth a shout.
