Schumacher KF Help me please
 

I have just bought this car. I've raced TLRs previously and now all of a sudden I can't get this car to do anything without either the servo horn or the servo itself shattering. I'm getting stupidly angry with it and would love somebody to tell me that this is a common problem and here is the solution.

Also not sure how it should be set up to be competitive. If someone could help id be majorly grateful.

Thanks,

Mark

You need to give us a little more info on your problem.

What servo and horn are you using !
How is it breaking ?
( on landings or hitting corners etc )

I've been racing the SV2 and KF and as yet have not broken a servo or a horn.
Have you set you EPA's so it's not stressing the servo with over throw ?

As for set ups, try Toms !

I seemed to strip my servo horn alot and mess the gears up but since ive been running a servo saver with an aluminium servo horn, i havent had any problems:thumbsup:

Without a servo saver, you deffo need a metal geared servo for reliability. You might need an alloy horn if you keep stripping the plastic kit one.

Which servo are you currently running?

What servo horn are you using? Check and see if it is catching on the blulk head.

If your snapping the servo horn you want a core RC alloy one !
The one with the orange countersunk washer from memory
I had a problem with a brand new savox 1258 servo in the sv2, everytime the car rolled over it would knock the steering out.
The servo was faulty. Changed for an associated servo and all good !

Personally i would stick with the plastic horn and buy a decent servo. Ive stripped a couple of horns over a 3-4 year period but its only when ive done something pretty stupid and id rather break one of those than buy a new servo gear set.

I don't think this is a reflection on the car, more driver and servo.....
