Get a stronger coreless servo. Get rid of dual servos go single. They will always fight each other falling out of adjustment. Great video!

Big thumbs up from me. Me and my brother went out and bought one each and it's our first truck with a dual servo set up. This was very useful information and I appreciate you sharing. I'll be looking in to mine and sending my brother a link to this video. 👍👍

What you have shown is exactly why I suspect so many people are having servos fry on their E-Revos! I have one on the way, and I was planning to check out if they are doing just what you have shown. Thanks for posting this and confirming my theory! Excellent video!!!

This video couldn't be any better. I immediately got my revo and changed it. Thank you for saving me some $$$ in a month when the servos would have died :)

Thank you! I did this to mine before the first run, saw the same thing - you could hear them fighting each other. 10 minutes of adjusting and they are perfectly matched!

Man, you are SO right, I bought mine yesterday and did the same thing. Mine was so far off, I had to clock one of my servo horns clockwise one spline. When I first turned it on, I could definitively hear the whine of the servos fighting each other before I fixed it. With one servo saver clocked and linkage adjustments, the wheels and bellcrank are dead straight and no fighting.

Such an important thing to know! this is exactly why everyone complains about stock servos; but really only the steering armature was all that needs adjusted! Great tip!

Glad I saw this. Mine hummed so bad right out of the box. Burnt them up in the first set of batteries.

Appreciate you making this video. I'm going to buy one pretty soon , if anything else comes up please drop another video to let us know what you found or other tips. Thanks

Thanks for that information. 👍 I'm getting my first Revo soon. It going to be my new race truck.

I hear they fight against one another and burnout over time. Some ppl just go to a single. Mine is in the mail so I’m so glad I came across this. Thank you.

Very good and important info,thanks a lot for sharing!

theanks for the info. i gonna buy a traxxas e-revo 2.0 tomorrow so thats was nice to know

Good stuff, been thinking of a erevo. Much appreciated for your content. 👍

Well. There ya have it folks.. The servo life saver tip 👍🏼

Soon as I buy mine and get mine in the mail I'm going to do this all night thank you for the info it really helps and I just subscribe

Thanks for tip, haven’t took my Erevo out yet so I will definitely check this out on mine

Just got my E REVO a couple days ago and been ripping on it and gearing it down! Saw this and sure enough when I pulled that screw the tie rod was out of line. I adjusted it and now the servos don’t make that humming in the neutral position. Thanks for this video! Hoping this will help my servos last a long time!

Thanks. Got the new e Revo and this was the first thing I did to it.

Wow great tip. I have never heard of this, but makes perfect sense

I heard about this, but good to see. Thanks mate, very usefull tip!

awesome video!!!!! I am going to buy a e revo and i have watched a lot of videos of them saying that this is one of the main issues and i think this will fix it!!!! again awesome video!!!

Mate you a legend was humming and unscrewed it exactly what you said.one buckle turn fixed it. Thanx mate

God dammit missed this vid both servos are wrecked grrr and it’s not turning on now either . Got work to do on it now and Ive smashed the piggy bank for it . Thanks for the information will make sure I get woke on this truck from now on 👊🏿

I dont have a revo, but this is awesome information.

Thanks bro just bought mine I’ll do it ASAP

Thank u so much , I'll think of this once I get a new rc

Thanks! I just bought one and ill have to do this once its delivered

Thanks Jason for the Update

Still a good video in 2023

Thanks for the great tip buddy!!! 👍👍👍👍

thank you for this,cause i am acually get my e-revo next week

Great video! Very informative!

Nice video very helpful, I just got mine yesterday and I looked and it was the same way I did exactly what you did and it all lines up nice and flush , maybe during assembly they rushed the process this might be a quality control issue and a lack of inspections at the factory, just a hunch.

Awesome video man

Nice tip man!!!

Great info! Thanks!

I don't do electric cars but it's good to know on these rtr cars that I need to check and see if the servos have any stress on them because they are not set right from the factory!

Makes it more better!

Great tip I just fixed mine wrong out of the box thx....👍

Thx for the info I'm getting one next wk

Thank you for the information

Great tip!

wow,, thanks Man!! I will check mine too.

That voice though.

Thanks I'm buying it next week

Never understood why they run 2 servos.Makes no sense. I converted mine right away with a perfect pass servo. Works awesome

Thanks buddy,very helpfull

My E Revo 2 is a month old and I checked my servos and they were perfectly centered.

Thank you so much get a stronger core the servo guy says thanks for sharing man because I was wondering why my $700 E Revo was a hunk of shit straight out of the box now I know too bad I don’t know beforehand or see your video I would’ve saved myself some money along with the $215 in upgrades making it a $900 RC car that’s been torn apart more than it’s been enjoyed.. It’s quality control Traxxas seems to lack a bit and then you have your snooty RC enthusiast that well never mind I appreciate you showing that you just prove my point all they care about selling parts more than quality because if it was quality it wouldn’t have come to you like that nor my E Revo to me the way it did

Amazing! I just bought an E-Revo 2.0 and out of the box, before any runs-my servo linkage looked exactly like yours. The passenger side turnbuckle was uneven as well. Took about 10 min adjusting everything and its dead on. You'd think Traxxas would sort this out before shipping. They must be getting tired of fielding calls and sending out replacement servos!

Nice vid sir thanks for the info,now do I adjust just one or both?

Awesome information bro. I'm planning on getting a Revo 2.0 until I kept hearing reports on the servos going out within the first few runs

super info

Would have been nice if you would have showed us how you were able to adjust the trim on a single servo! Aren’t they both plugged in with a y splitter to channel one? I can’t remember how it’s set up, but I didn’t think the steering servos were on separate channels, correct? Thanks for the vid 👍

After you remove the screw, how do you also the servos do they line up? I heard some being noise but you didn't show in the video how you were adjusting it. Thanks in advance for your response to my question.

Wow older vid but I'm going to my summit this afternoon. How about removing the horns, recenter the servos then reattach?

Awesome

Huh, maybe thats why both my servos burned out on the sencond run🤔 Oh well, switched ‘em out for a single savox. Thanks for the info👍🏻😁

Out of the box .. my servos were perfectly aligned..

I got a used e revo 2.0 and it came with a bunch of aluminum upgrades and I’m not to sure if I’m going to keep all of it on because it’s a little sluggish and heavy to carry around. But I’m coming here to see if I need to watch out for anything

Does it hurt that the horns aren’t straightened anymore? They are now angled...

Just checked mine, guess I lucked out. Mine were right on the money.

Clever

steerin trim in the 12 hour clockwise position? and multifunction (tsm) totally off, right? thanks. saludos desde España

How did you setup the servos to the receiver since it has 2 ch1 ? Thanks.

Sorry for the newbie question but could you adjust each servo independently with the Traxxas bluetooth module? I haven't got one yet but I am waiting on a delivery of one and was curious after watching this video if it was possible to do what you did with that or if I'd need to adjust the bolts. Awesome video, very helpful as I can see mine are slightly off so will need to adjust them

Thank you.

Nice Video man, i burn both of 'stock' servo after 1h30... That my first dual servo rc =/ i wont make that mistake again Thankyou!

Hey I’m running 2 5200 mah 100c lipos and I’m getting like 5 minutes of runtime. Lvd is shutting the truck down at 3.9 volts per battery. Trying to figure out what’s going on. The batteries have 2 charges on them.

Very nice. Side note, I see a lot of people with these long drill bits; where do you get them?

How did you move that top mount pivot arm like that to line it up?

First thing I did with my erivo 2.0 was change the servo metal gears

How did you just adjust that servo with the remote ?

I have a batch 2 or 3 E-Revo 2.0 and the servos are perfect. I took the screw out and they didn't move. Traxxas QC must've changed.

What did he do to make the servo makes that noise

My car came like that too I had to line up the servos

Why not remove the horn off of the servo and move one or two splines? I don't have a higher end Tx, but isn't your servo throw going to be offset, meaning one will hit the stop sooner, and then fight each other anyways? The servo you disconnected in theory should reach it's stop sooner, and the other side will fight to push it. I'd move a spline or adjust the linkage.

The 24 people that disliked were the people that found this video after there car broke lol

What remote are you using to change it?

Is your trim going to be off now all the time?

Mantap, kirimkan aku bos. 😍😍

Should u do both sides

thats why I converted to one

2 questions, 1- do you need to do this with both or will doing it to one fix it? 2- can you use the Traxxas link app instead of the radio? great video!

I switched mine to a single servo set up i didnt like the dual set up mine stripped out even after i realigned my servo's

Ready to run..kinda.

I had the same problem.

I still want an e revo 😔

900!

With all the great options available now - who would buy a E Revo?

Centering the servos and adjusting the links would have been much better advice.

What front and rear diff fluid does this use from factory

Will this mess up the trim or make them uneven?

That would stress it out. Certainly

See my Traxxas Bigfoot and others on my channel!

Traxxas is making a killing off of upgrade parts that should already come standard.

do you just adjust one servo or all of them

I wish I watched this vid before I stripped a gear in my servo the first week.😑
