little gear on the left doesn't rotate clockwise and anti clockwise like it does on the other servos i tried, when you move the big gear on the right.

was wondering if savox servos are supposed to be like this or is my broken.

sorry just come back from football :D

hi aran, well id have to say if it came off a cougar its more than likely broke as thiers no saver built into the car. i made my own saver using a starnded horn cut in halve and bolted together with a kimborough saver and dremmeled a little fron the under side of the upper deck. works a treat now and no more broke horns or servos.
