I dunno...It was kinda funny...but not quite haha funny.
Hell I just fried a reciever and 2 perfectly good servos. My laff-o-meter is a little out of wack atm.

i did that once in my tmaxx it sucks and i did not have spares
New/old kid on the block. - Gforce - 01-27-2007
Well they weren't exactly spares...I robbed the reciever and one of the servos from my electric setup. Since I have a dx2 coming in the next few days, its not a big deal...new reciever, and servos. I'll just swap it all back out when the package arrives. I am pissed about the metal gear servo tho...That was expensive.

It happens man.... It sucks though.
Ask Ponch.... I accidently plugged the servos and reciever pack into his reciever backwards. :o: No damage occured though.
(And that was a spektrum receiver.)

I bet Hitec would replace the servo out of good will. They are top notch at service and value their customers. I would give them a call for the heck of it.

ya think they would replace my hs945mg. i fried it too
New/old kid on the block. - FreeRideFrosty - 01-27-2007
You can try.... but I don't know. Make sure you have a radio with endpoint adjustment if you have nice servos. :-)

That 945 or whatever? It'll probably be fine. I've never had good luck with hitecs lasting though, but just personal experince.

You would not have punched me because I would have already been on my way to the little hobby shop to buy a receiver.

Well considering the servo was over 7 years old...they won't replace it...I am sure of that. That and I have no idea what brand it was..the label came off of it a looong time ago. lol. It only had a season of racing on it tho so it didn't have much use on it, but age wise, it never woulda happened.

the Ace servos are a great cheap replacment
