Hi who can help me with a slight problem with my brother in laws fg marder.
He has just received 2 new servos,steering is a savox 0265B and throttle/brake is a savox SC1256.
Transmitter is flysky fsgt3c and receiver is flysky fsgr3e.
Battery 5000mah
Now everything worked fine with the old servos but now the new servos only work on channel 3 and only on the throttle not on the wheel. The receiver has been re binded.
Could anyone shed some light on the strange issue.
Many thanks Kev
 
Hi Kev, this has happened to me before it’s usually down to a radio setup or servo compatibility issue rather than the servos themselves, please Make sure the receiver plugs are in the correct channels (CH1 = steering, CH2 = throttle/brake on the GT3C).
• The FlySky GT3C does not support digital servos on all channels. Both Savox servos you listed are digital, and the GT3C often only drives them correctly on CH3, which explains why they work there but not on steering.
• Try setting the servo type/frequency in the radio menu to digital if available (some GT3C firmwares are limited).
• Also check that the BEC/receiver power is sufficient – Savox servos can be power-hungry, especially steering.
If the issue persists, the usual fix is either a higher-spec receiver/radio that supports digital servos properly, or running a capacitor/glitch buster and testing with one servo at a time.
 
Hi Sam thanks for the detailed reply I'll pass this onto my brother in law and he can test what you've advised and if he has to update the receiver he'll have to.
Do you recommend a flysky receiver that'll do the job.
Thanks again Kev
