Well, I know that it is quite short time after buying stock product, but I think that you know kind of feeling when you want to something more… But that was not my motivation (not at this time). I simply wanted to improve performance by small upgrades and I also crashed and destroyed my steering servo.

Steering servo upgrade

I was looking around shops to buy new one, but no one had it on the store. I decided that I do not want to wait (I was informed about 1 or 2 weeks delivery) for another expensive plastic servo from Kyosho. After searching web, I came across post describing servo upgrade using Hitec servos – HS-81/85 MG(Metal Gear). I recommend you MG version, because it cames with metal gear that you can not destroy . Both servos are strong and fast enough. I thing you will see for your self how steering performance grow. So how was it done. First you should prepare new servo mount for Hitec servos. It is included with other mounts in bag of spares. We are looking for mount H. After replacing mount with new one we are ready to start working on new servo hardware modification. As you maybe noticed, original Kyosho servo has one more wire than the new one. Now comes the tricky part. It is not difficult, but it requires some basic electro technical skills and equipment. If anyone need detail description of this step contact me. Photos bellow shows new servo after installation.
