Thank you man! I almost missed a race because of this. Ran third both quals, lost radio binding and somehow that knob got turned. Finished last in main with almost zero steering. Was about to replace servo!
This amazing. I literally just let my 5 year old run my Axial Scx and the steering just magically stopped. I checked everything like u did. Re bind. Etc etc. swapped servos. Swapped esc’s. Then bam I watched your video. The first video I watched about steering issues and I tried the RESET thanks to you on the controller! FIXED. THANKS LOVE YOU lol
Hi there. My 4 yr. old g’son has a Jada Toy that stopped, too. We don’t have a steering counter on the remote. Don’t know how to get to the gear shaft or what to do if I did know.
Thanks Bro. That just happened to me, no steering. Thought it was the servo, until I just come across your video here. Ran to my controller, turned the steering rates knob and what do know. Thanks for posting this video. it really saved me a lot of time and some money. Mahalo!!!!
Thanks buddy, you just saved me a whole load of angst. My son's grasshopper was steering fine yesterday but this morning he wakes me thinking he's broken it. Turns out he's been playing with the knobs on the low end carson controller. So after resetting it now works fine. I and super dad again. Cheers
Hi Mark. I have a really old car. Everything works fine except I have a calibration issue with the steering. The moment I turn the remote on the wheel turns to right. When I turn steering left it moves a bit but swings back to the right and keeps making a sound. How can I calibrate the steering? Could you pls help?
Thank you, I was just about to take apart my son’s car when I watched your video and realised it could be something on the remote. In a different place but worked just the same so many thanks.
U just saved my ass! Arrma vendetta 3s w spectrum controller. Suddenly hung left. I thought servo maybe smoked. Came back to the house and looked it up and ur video popped up. I had hit steering down w thumb. Back in business! Thx man
Thanks.....went thru the same problem.....simple quick fix.......can't believe I spent 2hrs switching servos... esc....cars....for something so simple.
Thank you so vefy much for this video. Was driving my arrma vorteks and steering stopped. I was tripping out becuase im fairly new at this. After watching your vedio , found out thats exactly what it was. Thanks man!!!
I am having this issue with my revo 3.3, receiver is good wth remote. It will run for a few seconds then completely stop. Does the TQI remote have something similar?
Oye tengo una pregunta tengo un Revo y estoy aprendiendo ajustarlo pero ahorita tengo la situación que lo enciendo y si no lo freno o lo pongo en algo que lo detenga el carro se va solo nomás lo enciendo la Llantas están para el frente en movimiento pues si le quito Alfredo con el control del carro se va solo
Same thing happened with my Rustler VXL using the included TQ1 remote. When I turn the remote on the "ON" led blinks everything else works but the steering. This happened while the Rustler was moving across a small bumpy area. Do you know if there is a reset on the remote or do I need to investigate the receiver, etc. Thanks
Hope you can reply to this. I’m new to the hobby. I purchased a rustler Vxl. Straight out of the box I noticed it drifts to the left. Is there a way to fix this? Doing research I believe you can fix it with the Bluetooth addition to your receiver. And use the app to calibrate it? Is this the only way?
I lost tons of speed on my Traxxas, E-max. I'd do immediate wheelie's and now it just don't pick up but 2 inches off the ground. Not sure if I need to adjust my controller settings or what? I mean it was hitting 60 mph easy. It's probably at 45mph. What advise can you give me?
Hey @mark Santa Maria Yesterday i got the same problem. I dont have a second car to check. i googled for 30min and the your video popped up. i checked the steering rate and it was on zero!!! thank you for your HELP!!!
It must of happened more than you think since the newer models put a dial on front ... I've had one with a bad screen. I started messing with throttle trim ( not knowing ) and the car took off lol
hello good afternoon I have a Revo 3.3 car and when I turn it on the tires do not stay still they move forward as if I were accelerating it which of the three buttons I have to move thank you
Hello sir I need some help with my emax I have steering but no forward or backwards I calibrated and still the same both receiver and ESC greenlight's I press the throttle and the green light on the ESC blinks anything will help thank you

My gool rc is doing something similar, I try to turn and the servo goes full right and stops. Dual rate is up. I tried another remote too and another servo

Unfortunately both are not working i charged the batteries i put bran new 9v battery in the remotes but i can not get them to work at all. Both remotes turn on but i can not get any commands to work nothing is responding even i changed the channels still no respond what so ever its driving me crazy they are brand new. Does any body know whats going on here please? any tips to fix them will help.
i need help my car wont turn but it will go forward and backward but doesnt turn but i dont have that type of button on my remote for it i have a monster energy rc car can u help
help! I have a DX2E and the same issue but it has Dials for the and even bought a 2075 R still no go! after watching ur video I felt kind smart for checking this but I am stuck I guess the controller is bound cause the throttle still works... any advice?
I binder my TQi to my trx4m. Got lost in the menu somewhere now my steering doesn’t work on any of my models the transmitters binded to. Traxxas wassnt much help.
my son is 3 loves playing with the crawlers and can't help him self but to turn every dial on the remote ... almost bought new steering everything, servo, remote, receiver... watched this and was like oh he turned the steering rate down ... mine is in a dial but still .... thanks
What of it is just loose to one side I have a 1995 Toyota Supra that got Hit in the front left tire and it will not turn that way anymore it’s just loose
I changed my servo in my slash , and I cant turn it anymore , using the stock controller , I re binded it and it still wont work , checked the bell crank and it's fine. Still wont move .. I am stuck and dont want to take it in to the hobby shop.
My slash just stopped turning too, with stock remote. It turns to the right but with super low power to it, doesn't even turn when on the ground, and doesn't move when going left.
My Rc car recently just stopped. The ESC will turn off the second the Controller connects. I assume this is the servo as it works when the servo is disconnected. Planning on getting a new servo to test it out soon. If anyone thinks it's anything else I am open for Ideas as the servo will take around a month to get.
This probably just happened with my Transformers Bumblebee RC car but on the controller for that there's no turning rate on the controller but it won't turn any more all the sudden
This just doesn't work for me, I think some sand got in the system if that makes a difference I'll post the results tomorrow, and like the car can move the front wheels move when I turn it on but it doesn't steer when I turn the steering wheel
Hi everyone - i just got a brand new WLTOYS 144010 and stupidly when wanting to start it I plugged in the white battery connector cable (used to charge battery) instead of the deans cable (red). Some cables started smoking right after and melted. The car starts, engine runs but steering does not work. Would appreciate any support here 🙏🏻
Thank you man! I almost missed a race because of this. Ran third both quals, lost radio binding and somehow that knob got turned. Finished last in main with almost zero steering. Was about to replace servo!
I havent touched my drift rc for months because of this problem and you helped me solve it in a matter of seconds thanks so much

the same thing happened to me, but I have a traxxas tqi remote, it does not have a steering sensitivity knob, so what should I do?
Mines just a stock hsp remote and i dont think it has the steering rate because i couldnt find it so do you know what else may be the issue
Thank you, was spot on for the Galaxy Kids Ford Raptor my boy got for his bday. Valuable lesson to teach, don't touch the buttons you don't understand
Hi,
Thank you for the video. I lost steering completely even after rebinding, is it a dead servo?
Thank you

Hey I am having an intermittent steering loss issue with my Keaton v5 6s. Any idea what it can be?

This happened while the Rustler was moving across a small bumpy area. Do you know if there is a reset on the remote or do I need to investigate the receiver, etc. Thanks
Do you ever
Should have looked it up before I bought a new servo ahahaha great Vid !! At least I got something with a little more power
And what about on just the regular trwxxas TQi controller ? That button doesn't exist does it?
Hope you can reply to this. I’m new to the hobby. I purchased a rustler Vxl. Straight out of the box I noticed it drifts to the left. Is there a way to fix this? Doing research I believe you can fix it with the Bluetooth addition to your receiver. And use the app to calibrate it? Is this the only way?
My remote stopped working it has been sitting for about 3 to 4 years it had acid on the batteries but I cleaned it any ideas what it could be?
Thanks!!! I was freaking out and found this video lol der I'm an idiot lol but truly THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO YOU SURE DID SAVE MY FRUSTRATION 👌

My arrma granite blx has this issue and i tried to do this on my SLT3 controller and it did not work
I have a problem I can't steer my losi mini t 2.0 I could align but it doesn't turn
Butt how do I change the remote to other car
What did you name sluggy. Is that a buggy conversion slash ..
I don't have that steering thing. I have a Jeep Trail at From new bright How do I fix it anyway
buy a new one like one thats not frome walmart
Duuude thank you so much.. I'm a newbie and managed to screw myself exactly 5 mins in.. Did exactly that with my 4pk super r.
For me the steering locked up but my servo still makes noise, do you know what that could be?
I have the same issue, even with 2 new ones
If the steering servo still works, it might be the servo saver. They are super cheap so you might as well try it
Thanks. I will do that fail at some point. Now I can fix it
Dahm, now I can't wait to get home and figure out if that's what happened to me. Keeping fingers crossed!!
Great video .thank s bro
you are such a legend.
Thank you so much

My slash just stopped turning too, with stock remote. It turns to the right but with super low power to it, doesn't even turn when on the ground, and doesn't move when going left.

First comment! Great videos man keep it up!

What if it’s the regular remote
Omg thank goodness for all
Thanks for this lol

That's a bad design on the transmitter.
Brad Kalman it’s adjustable in that you can move that feature to another switch on the radio....
