Finally a video on adjusting the new servo saver! I found my Notorious has been lacking steering in corners and the steering sways a lot and rubs the body when doing backflips. I would have preferred the old servo saver design I hate not having the adjustability... this was super helpful. Thanks man 👌👌

@tonysmith7989 3 жыл бұрын

Same with my notorious. Try taking out the bushings and put in bearings that go on the shaft with the saver and it will help and last longer. Yes in diagrams it shows a # and a bearing, but they put plastic bushings in instead. It will eventually grind down the bushing being plastic. Hope it helps.

Also all these manufacturers forget one simple small piece that even on the diagram shows it's in the vehicle but not. The bearings at the bottom of the servo saver instead of plastic bushings. So now I change mine. Have 2 brands and just picked up my kraton 6s v5. 3rd and last Arrma. I started back to the hobby with a Traxxas rustler 4x4 xl-5 and upgraded things myself to get to know the vehicle. I started noticing my steering wasn't as good as it was. So thinking servo, upgraded, servo saver rebuild and noticed white powder from the bottom of it. In the manual it showed part and # in diagram so I look it up and there are bearings that go there. So I believe this is why people always go for a new servo first. Just putting the bearings in will get you better response and longer life out of original servo and cost maybe $5 tops. May help aswell. When your saver was out I saw the white bushings. And I think that the Product maker knows that's the first to be replaced. And ad much $ we pay for these and they cant put the smallest bearing for your steering in??? Cmon now. 🤔🤣🤣

Yeah I know right, I was surprised they had those metal bushings in there too when I took mine apart. Changed mine over to the bearings and have been good Sense. I never have been impressed with the power of the steering from the V4 electronics. Hoping 7.4 V makes a big difference. Dropping a video on that soon

Is this suggested for the Creighton 4S V2?

@EastTactics 7 ай бұрын

Not particularly, the issue specifically address a poor design with the V4/V5 6s Kraton. However… That said, I am unclear, if the same design flaw exists in the 4s V2. I would suggest going to Arma‘s website, scroll down to the bottom look under your user manuals. Pull up the exploded view for both the 6s and the 4s Kraton and look for similarities in the servo saver. I mean, if you feel like you’re experiencing poor steering and it has similar design, I see no reason why you wouldn’t incorporate the same tactic into the 4s if it is compatible.

@@EastTactics yea the steering is way to weak. I'm pretty new to it but would love to put in a stronger servo. On the forum they said I could use an Amazon 25kg servo but I have no clue how to do it. I haven't even been able to get my tires ims off yet. I don't know how to do it? I tried to use the wrench that goes around the hex nut that came with the truck but it doesn't seem to want to budge do you know if there's something else I have to do first before trying to take off the big 17 mm nut?

@EastTactics 7 ай бұрын

There’s nothing to do before that, it should come right off. But if it’s been a while, it could be tough. Instead of using the stock tool, you might consider using a socket wrench, or even better a drill. Even better a hammer drill if you’re familiar with one of those. The stock tool is definitely not the best. Especially again, if it’s been a while since they’ve been removed. Buying and installing a better servo, could potentially saw your problems as well. Being new to the hobby is OK especially when you’ve got plenty of good videos out there, showing you exactly what to do. You’ll get better at it you just gotta dive in. The hobby grade RCS are meant to be wrenched on and upgraded. Feel free to hit me up with any questions. I’m always happy to help.

There is a servo saver extra heavy spring option for high torque servos on arrma’s website that should tighten up the servo saver without trying to shim it. I watched a video of someone using a vise grip to compress the spring so he could get a wrench onto the hex usually covered by the plastic saver.

Interesting, ya back during the time I made this vid Arrma was over red LOCKTITE’ing the servo savor making it a nightmare to get it open. They sinces eased up on that. I still feel the snap ring instal is an easy option to tightening it.

It re-centers correctly after turning to the right however. There also seems to be a lot of play on the servo bracket while turning, the plastic bracket begins to twist.

@EastTactics 3 жыл бұрын

I take it that you were running the old version servo saver correct? The kind with the ability to come up through a hole in the bottom of the chassis and tighten it?. If that’s the case the first thought You might consider if it keeps getting loose on you is simply replacing it with the newer version in the V4. And then snap ring it up. Another thought would be to simply install the snap rings into your servo savor which I believe in essence would simply do away with the loosening and tightening function and sort of force it to be tighter. But I could be wrong.

Hey Kyle thanks for commenting. I’m not sure I understand the question though. I have a aluminum servo mount here. And I would agree they’re the only way to go.

I mean it wouldn’t hurt to upgrade the servo saver itself to aluminum I suppose, do you use the hot racing servo saver?

Hey East, do you think the EXB saver could use the adjustment? It comes with the “X-Hard” spring.

@EastTactics 2 жыл бұрын

I’m not sure….how do you feel your steering is? One test I like to do to test both my servo saver as well as the strength of my servo, is “the upper hinge pin butt stop test” Basically you’re Servo should be strong enough (with relation to a fairly tight servo saver) to push the servo arm all the way up against the little notch that is shaved off in your upper hinge pin brace even if you are literally holding your tires preventing them from turning. When you hold those tires and then crank on your steering, your servo saver should tweak open and your servo should be strong enough to push it all the way up against the butt stop. Now technically this is not a test so much for your servo savor as it is for your servo. Because if you have a super loose servo saver than your servo is going to be able to do this just fine right. However the key is that after having a properly tightened servo saver, your servo is still strong enough to crank that a full range of motion. My guess is that adding a snap ring into the EXB would not hurt. And is likely needed, maybe two snap rings. I actually went in and added a third snap ring in my V4.

Yes, if you plan on changing out your servo saver completely to the hot racing you may not have to worry about doing the shimming if by chance it’s adjustable. However if you want to stick with the stock servo savor than I would recommend putting two or three shims/snap rings in it. Either way you’re going to want to get rid of the metal bushings and replace those with bearings. I absolutely recommend getting aluminum servo mount, And completely getting rid of the stock servo and picking up a high-powered servo. Watch this video for the details regarding that. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i6xmadFhktuXd6s.html

No worries, glad to help. I’m not 100% sure if the hot racing servo saver comes with the bearings, I would take a close look at the description of the purchase to see. If it doesn’t then You would want to pick up those four bearings. I believe in the video link above it gives you the exact dimensions if you want to just buy those by themselves. As far The stock servo saver goes, I’m pretty sure even with the V5 that they put metal bushings in there so you want to upgrade those. You’ll find out when you get it apart

@EastTactics 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I would assume this issue stems over into all of the V4 vehicles. Are you experiencing more than just “weak steering”? This particular issue that’s common with the V4 has more to do with the fact that it’s Loctite together so it’s really difficult to get in there to actually apply more pressure to the spring. In doing so it tightens up the servo saver and sends some more response to the steering rack, as opposed to being too loose (Yet really hard to get into). By going in and adding some spacers below the spring it in essence tightens up the servo saver. So if you’re simply experiencing poor steering then this tactic could be your solution. However if your steering system is broken/snapped or something more serious than just “weak” Because the servo saver is taking too much of the torque away from the system. Then you might have a reason to approach Arrma with Warranty claim.

@EastTactics 3 жыл бұрын

Set the vehicle down on concrete or payment. Take a really close look at the servo itself when you’re turning it. Is your servo turning full range? Make sure your remote setting/turn rate knob On the controller is turned up. If your servo is functioning properly take a really close look at the servo saver which is a funky looking plastic contraption that is compressed together, if while you’re turning the servo you see that thing opening up ALOT...Then most likely your servo saver is the issue. If it’s not opening up that much at all and you see it turning, you might have something wrong with your steering rack assembly. The Ackerman bar might be broken or severely bent or your steering turnbuckles could be loose or disconnected. Do that assessment and get back to me and let me know what you find.

Yeah, unfortunately the stock setup only outputs 6v to the servo. And the stock Servo is only capable of handling about that much. However higher end servos have the capability of taking 7.4 V however our stock ESC does not output that high-voltage. So to really crank up the power in your steering you either need to buy a higher and ESC combined with a higher end servo. Or... Pick up a higher end servo and install an external BEC in your rig. I’m actually going to be dropping a video in the next little while where I install an external BEC and document the difference of power to the steering

Getting the servo mount upgrade does help a bit. And it’s a highly recommended upgrade anyway. Regarding the hub knuckles upgrade to hot racing, typically those do not cause any hindrance in your steering unless you’ve over tightened your hub nuts. However upgrading those to the hot racing aluminum is again a highly recommended upgrade. They are great!.

For many, the servo savor is just too loose out of the box. Adding the snap rings (tightening it) doesn’t eliminate the servo savors functionality, it’s still definitely “saving” the servo from snapping/breaking like a completely tight or locked system would do. Your right, the car is always moving, but now, after doing this mod, when the car is moving it turns MUCH sharper and is WAY more responsive then it was before. I could tell the difference immediately, and my servo is working fine to this day. If your tires (when sitting on flat concrete) are not turning all the way right and all the way left (and fairly quickly) And you see the servo savor itself (when looking close) twisting dramatically... then your servo savor is too loose. If the savor is not twisting dramatically and the arm on the servo is not moving much, then you likely have a defective or too weak servo. Hope that helps :)
