HELP PLEASE!!! STEERING
I Just bought the traxxas e maxx, (older model) having issues with steering, when vehicle driving it steers but when stopped the front tires dont move, It worked when when i first bought it, did I do something, or is it the white steering gear/that connects to the steering servo. Ive only run it 3 times. Thanks for any help.

you need a stronger steering servo......in stock form they rely on forward motion to help steer and the week cheap steering servo just doesn't cut it.....

Where you jumping around with it?? That is what happened with my T-maxx, there is a screw under the front skid plate that connects the servo arm to the wheel arms. Check to see if there is still a screw there and if not replace it, but don't tighten it down to much or the servo won't be able to push the arms because the the screw is to tight.
If you still have a screw there I don't know what happened, sorry man.
