Twitching KO RSX One10

[Cliveyp]

I’ve recently picked up a used KO RSX One10 servo for my TC. On bolting it in tonight I noticed it has a shake.....nothing major, it’s pretty much all taken up in the general slack of the steering joints, but it’s still there. It also seems to still be there if I add a bit of lock too - although does initially calm down when you first hit lock - but if you hold a steady amount of lock it twitches.

I’m running a HW XR10 Pro, so I’ve tried swapping to 7.4V BEC but this changes nothing.

Any one experienced this before? Any ideas what might solve it?

It states on the side of the box that this is normal. Nothing to do with the rest of your electrics.

Unfortunately I don't have the box.....what does it actually say?

It's normal

If you have the model selector you can also put it in mild mode, it’s still fast but smooths it out and reduces twitching at centre.

Thanks all. I'll give it a whirl as it is and see if the twitch actually worries me when driving. Judging by the comments of it being 'normal', i'm presuming it wouldn't.

I still find it quite amazing that KO have produced a servo that twitches 'as standard'......quite phenomenal!
