Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL Servo Replacement. Step-by-step process

[@scu-dub]

Ok guys if your steering is sticking or just not right check the bottom screws on the caster blocks.... " the ones that screw into the steering blocks"if that screw is too tight it will make your steering slow and bind up making it stay turned after letting go of the wheel on the radio 👍

[@but531]

Thanks, man. I didn't see the two hidden screws at the end of the chassis, and your video helped me.

[@GReviewz]

no problem at all :) glad we could help!

[@TheTruths_ABitch]

you're the best video I've found on here!! helped me a lot thanks!!

[@cheddartreez6826]

You should be putting some silicone grease on the receiver box gasket to ensure it keeps waterproof.

[@GReviewz]

Good point! Next time around!

[@iamlegend5190]

I was wondering was he going to clean that before he put he reassembled it!

[@GReviewz]

It's all good :), back to bashing

[@cliffbernsen438]

Use an air compressor and tooth brush to clean the dust out.

[@jeffrenman4146]

you did a great job making the video… Is there a follow-up on that servo? How do you like it etc.…

[@phookit2]

Brilliant, helped me out to change mine. Thanks

[@GReviewz]

Not a problem! Thanks for watching!! Enjoy your traxxas!

[@jimeeatc]

Wait- is programming a new steering servo not necessary?!?! How???

[@GReviewz]

You should program it... there are many videos detailing how to program the end points.

What kind of tires do u use I just blew mine out I’m curious and thank you for helping me with the servo

[@GReviewz]

I use the stock talon tires, I also purchased the traxxas sledgehammer tires as well. Just make sure you gesr up if you're going to use the sledgehammers

[@jakeknorr2620]

@@GReviewz thank u very much appreciated

[@thebighomiechonchies433]

@@GReviewz will I need to change to the optional pinion gear if I get the sledgehammer

[@minnesotanice369]

I krazy glue tires works awesome

[@YonyCarperez]

What’s the difference in between 180 and 270

[@maszkalman3676]

the maximum steering angle 180 degrees or 270 which for a car is pointless

[@Dirtlldiamonds]

Would this same servo work on my 2WD rustler VXL

[@GReviewz]

Yes

[@Dirtlldiamonds]

Thank you for your time

[@brianpeasley1793]

I hooked mine up but it's real hard to turn and it's stuck turning one way and it's really really tight and I think I did it right

[@arthurvallette1438]

Hi why my wheels turn less than yours when we have the same servo motor yet on the remote control is set to the max

[@GReviewz]

What surface are you doing the turning? If the surface is super grippy it won't turns well/quickly.

[@snapscr]

Do we need to install the brushless power system to use this servo or is it also possible with the stock titan engine system?

[@GReviewz]

You can install any servo, the servo is completely separate from the esc and motor system.

[@BrianW2979]

Just about to reinstall my servo horn. After I center the servo by turning the truck on, the horn goes straight up and down, 90 perpendicular to the servo

[@GReviewz]

Just use your steering adjustment knob on your transmitter to correct. Hope that helps

[@marijaburakova5031]

Thx for this video bro

[@GReviewz]

No problem

[@blakrain525]

Thanks. Great video. Got it going

[@GReviewz]

Excellent! No problem

[@karinecalo9207]

hello all , sorry i am french and for the servo (for traxxas vxl 4x4 rustler) i must take servo 270degres or 180degres ? THANK YOU for your answers

[@maszkalman3676]

Probably late but you need only a 180 degree servo

[@thornmatthew8395]

Did you use the grommets that come with the servo

[@GReviewz]

No you dont need them. Hope that helps!

[@but531]

Now i just saw that the servo turns a lot, personallyi like when i see an rc car to steer so much. But if you don't like to steer so much or you don't need so much steering angle, check if you can change the end point adjustment without the traxxas link.

[@jasonc1817]

I just replaced my servo on my rustler and now turning makes my wheels spin.. I plugged in my old servo and same thing..Everything was working fine before I tried to upgrade the servo.. Made sure to plug servo into channel 1.. Have any suggestions?

[@GReviewz]

What do you mean turning makes your wheels spin? Like when you turn your wheels are in the air? Or like off the ground?

[@jasonc1817]

@@GReviewz Thank you for your response.. When I turn the car and remote on to test servo off the ground.. I turn the knob on the remote and the truck accelerates and spins rear axles.. I can also hear the servo working at the same time..

[@Str8down961]

Thanks👌👍

[@GReviewz]

Not a problem:)

[@thindigital]

Subbed! Thanks for the video, got one of these servos in my Amazon list, how is it holding up? Also do you find your 2.8 tires kill your stub axles? Cheers.

[@GReviewz]

My axles are fantastic. They are the teknorc ones. Lifetime warranty!

[@devonfuchs8465]

Can I get your email to ask you my questions about my servo for my 4x4 vxl

[@jorigamer1588]

Is 20KG enough and can i use it in not a VXL 4X4

It does the job. Not super powerful, but it does the job.

[@maszkalman3676]

Yeah this servo is pretty shłt it has good torque for like the first year i have in my rustler as well but now it's jittering barely pulls back to standard position and at high speed the car goes all over the place and the TSM doesn't really work. (what i meant by doesn't really work: it notices that the car isn't straight and corrects it to the opposite direction and never corrects it back so the car just run off the road)

[@robertlahann2513]

SPEED TIPS!!!!!!!!

[@GReviewz]

What would you like to know? Lol

[@MrYessireebob]

set your endpoints yo yiggity

[@GReviewz]

I have the standard controller, so I dont have that option. Only the rustler 4x4 vxl has that from factory.

[@jorritvermoesen7063]

@@GReviewz no you can actually set the endpoints with the TQ transmitter, you dont need the TQI.
