1/24 Scale Axial SXC24 | Servo Upgrade - How to Install Emax Servo Using Stock Servo Mount

- Today I continue the Upgrade Series on my Axial SCX24. I will show you how to install Emax ES08MD-II servo to SCX24 using the stock servo mount. Emax servo should provide better steering, and as a side benefit, also add 7.2g to the front end, continuing my goal to get to 60F/40R weight distribution or as close to it.

New Owner, 1st 24th scale. BEST Helpful videos Ever, Thanks Oldman in Georgia
Glad to help, and welcome to the hobby!
Dood, with your knowledge and tips, I really did a good job with this exact installation with the d series emax, instead of the a series! thanks a tonnage! I got my scx24 jlu crc jeep muddy bogged and totaled it. Had to replace the transmitter, esc, servo and motor, and thanks to you I got the final thing, the servo swap done and now my build is on the run! wooot wooot to you!
Great to hear! Enjoy the SCX24...they are tons of fun!
These little guys are really great to work on glad you got her running again.
doing everything as you stated thus far and so far sooo presto perfecto!
Awesome! Glad to hear the video helped out!
@@BigSungHobbies I think there is this waterproof conforming solution to protect my electronics in muddy settings, need help on that too. Its on back order on amainhobbies.com, if you know of another supplier, please let me know! thanks man for everything.
Check out this video and description for link for conformal coating that I use - czcams.com/video/eXcH_8pf83g/video.html
Just about to fit the exact same servo to mine, I have the injora mounts as well so hopefully they fit as good as they look
Awesome. I went the cheap route by using stock servo mount.
Thank you for the help!!!
You bet!
@@BigSungHobbies All my RCs are now upgraded, or repaired. Good day for it! Cheers from Massachusetts
Glad to hear! Enjoy the new servos!
Im here for the background music
😅
Thanks for this video. I'm preparing for the same upgrade and this will help tremendously. Liked and subscribed.
Awesome, thank you! It's pretty easy upgrade, and is so much better than stock servo.
Another good informative video, big thumbs up from Bradypat RC 👍👊
Thank you for your comment! Much appreciated!
Good video, you don't really need to even remove the mount but it was easier to see for the video.
Thanks! It was easier to remove the mount so that I can take a saw to file the notch for the cable...plus with this big fingers and hand, it's easier to work with it...plus it helps with the video as well.
Just what I was looking for. This will be my next upgrade. Thank you. 👍 and new subscriber here.
Awesome! Glad that I can help, and much appreciate the Sub!

Thank you!
I'm subscriber 173 BTW woot woot! chyea boiiii!
Thanks for the Sub! Much appreciate it.
Is there other differences in analog and digital besides little more powerful?
Nope, not really, but I find that digital seems to be a bit more crisp...but I could be just imagining it.
I just installed this servo on my scx 24 jeep along woth the hot racing aluminum servo mount but i have an issue. When i push the suspension travel up and down to simulate, there is a plastic “block” on the inside of the frame rails near the front that is hitting the screw heads that hold the servo on the servo mount. Any suggestions?
I have not used the hot racing aluminum servo mount, so I have not run into that issue. Might ask on one of the FB group pages?
you said you were going to use the diff mount screws because of the gap, so what did you use for the diff mount?
The HR brass diff covers comes with new stainless steel screws so I used those. Also I picked up a set of stainless screws which comes in very handy.
@@BigSungHobbies yeah I'm a newbie, just picked up my first micro crawler and second rc car ever yesterday, so I'm lookin to you guys makin videos for help lol. I just took the bottom screws from the diff cover put those on the diff mount, used the diff mount ones for the servo mount and used the servo mount screws for the diff cover. kinda confusing in words but looks like it'll get the job done
@@adventuresincameronology2517 We all started at some point. Welcome to the hobby!
@@BigSungHobbies so wtf am I supposed to get se to put the servo on I don’t have the brass diff cover
@@Gniggaaa In that case, you should order some extra screws. Axial has a kit of screws for $7. The taller servo will require longer screws.
Thanks for the video. I plan on reusing the stock steering linkage. Any issues using an o-ring by the steering horn, in addition to the ones by each knuckle?
Nope, I have not had any issues. I plan on doing it with o-rings on B-17 Betty shortly.
Do you have a certain tool kit you prefer when working on the SCX24’s?
MIP is the way to go. It's expensive, but well worth it.
I found out that my scx24 has no weight in the front surprise surprise :-/ so this should be good for my scx24
It will add few grams to the front. I would recommend looking into brass knuckles and brass diff cover to the front to help with weight distribution.
@@BigSungHobbies yah I was thinking about that last night cause I’m making a hill side crawler track
You want to get to as close as 60/40 weight distribution. That will help tons with crawling. Good luck
Thank you. I have the servo..just waiting for my stock to burnout first. No servo saver required for new servo?
I would just swap it over and keep the stock as backup. No reason to run on weaker servo.
just installed the emax servo it last two batteries and died putting stock one back in
Wow. Both of mine have been running well over a year. It looks like you got a bad batch.
Hello, first thank you a lot for the video! i did the same and work perfect. But i got a question, my servo is the Digital version (ES08MDII) and is shaking. I think is a problem with the servo because i try it in others ESC and happen the same. Do you know if there's any difference between Analog and Digital Servo? Anyone with the same problem? thanks!
I have both digital and analog version, and the servo should not be shaking at neutral position. You might want to contact the place of purchase, and see if you can get a replacement unit.
What cutters are you using to snip through that metal so easily?
That part is plastic. Just a regular cutter, but I am using xyron ultra flush sprue cutter.
Where did you order your spare screws from for the scx24. I would like to order some spare screws to have for working on my car
Hot Racing has a set which I ordered from Amainhobbies. You can find the link here: alnk.to/60UIBED
@@BigSungHobbies thank you
is there a big difference between analog and digital servos? seems like the analog one's are cheap and available.
I believe it's only 12Kg vs. 13Kg, so the difference is very minimal.
I cant find a digital version
I use both as well. Nothing wrong with analog, but the digital version seem to be just a bit more direct. But almost at double the price, not sure if it's worth it.
Servo Horn spline count?
I never counted. I just used the servo horn that came with the Emax servo.
@@BigSungHobbies I dont care for plastic....Thanx though
@@kennethrich2107 I haven’t run into metal option for Emax servo. If you do find one, please let us know. I believe there is metal servo horn for Reefs99 and some higher end ones, but I believe they have a different splint count…but I am not 100% sure.
@@BigSungHobbies Yes, I'm contemplating the reef servo along with the reef metal horn myself. But Geeze..$$$$. If I find an Emax compatible Horn, I'll let you know. I'm thinking the Reef is 25T and the Emax could possibly be 14T.
Did the servo saver screw come from the servo you bought? Where did you get it?
Yes, it came with Emax servo.
@@BigSungHobbies Okay, thanks.
