Steering AND Body probs

hey everyone! my steering always cuts to the left. i can correct it with the trim, but after i shut it off, it always goes back to the left. can someone help me with this prob? i think it may be the servo (i race nitro rc cars, im not 2 good with elec mini servos).

Also, my body won't fit. i destroyed it trying to fix the problem, so i was wondering if it was at all possible to be able 2 buy a new body for my precious car? thanx anyone with input. i have an RSX btw if you didn't know.

finally, how do you put little icons under ur screenname when you post? i've seen people do it with under 30 posts, so i was wondering how you do it. THANKS A LOT!!

Another "design flaw". By not implementing an analog trim wheel on the transmitter, the RatShack folks doomed us to adjusting the trim on our cars every time we turn on the TX.

Another possible solution is to monkey with the steering servo and reposition it closer to straight trim. There have been a couple of previous posts relating to this (try a search).

s pbmax stated, the trim problem is a design flaw and is like that on every Xmod. You can use the steering servo fix located in the link in my signature.

You can buy replacement bodies thru special order at your RS or by calling 1-800-843-4722, part numbers can be found in CJ's FAQ link in my signature.
