Question Steering servo not centering

Hi folks,

I have just installed a Savox 1258G into my Schumacher Cat.
The tx is a Etronix Pulse 3ch 2.4Ghz (also new to me)

When I centre the servo and then steer, the steering returns to a random location. By that I mean that it seems to never return to centre, instead stopping a little from it.

Adjusting the trim can help until you turn the other way and then it goes off again!

Any thoughts or advice massively welcome.

Thanks.

Andrew

Have you checked the servo saver/arm?

I had a similar problem with my mardave, knew there was nothing wrong with the TX, RX or servo as had come out of another car, following advice from fellow ooplers, turned out that the problem was the servo saver itself, as the wrong one was fitted.

i dont use a servo saver on mine and you can see when it returns to centre it stops early both ways.ive reset it messed with all the settings and nothing works luckily i can manage with it doing that with my buggy but not my m03 or f1 so im getting a futaba 3vc 2.4ghz which is on its way so when it comes my core is getting sold as faulty unless i find away to sort it.
