Was out driving yesterday and sudden the th/b servo stopped working. Tried switching channels on receiver, steering worked fine on all channels, but th/b wouldnt work on any.
I disassembled the servo and its working somehow , if its plugged in and i assist and push the servo horn just a little it turn and stays till i release the throttle, but when pushing throttle again i have to help it to move..
So guess i will be looking for a replacement for the SF-1, anyone got a tip for a servo i could buy? I'm just looking for a cheap servo to match or any better without going to much up in price.
 
Not sure how your funds are but i just ordered a set of hitec servos for my T/B and Steering ..

If you order from tower hobbies you can get some codes and save on shipping or if you live in the lower 48's you can take a chunk out of the total for the servos... I think you can save $20 for every $100 you spend ..
