Stripped gears mean loose, vague steering
When the plastic gears inside a stock servo strip, steering goes soft, drifts, or stops responding under hard bashing. A metal-gear replacement holds its position and keeps steering precise instead of grinding itself out.
- βͺΒ Β Stripped plastic gears. Cheap internal gears strip under hard steering and crash loads.
- βͺΒ Β Vague or wandering steering. A worn servo cannot hold trim, so the car drifts off line.
- βͺΒ Β Grinding on full lock. A failing servo whines and slips instead of turning the wheels.
- βͺΒ Β Failures on wet runs. An unsealed housing lets dust and water in and shortens servo life.
Strong, sealed steering that holds its trim
This replacement servo drives the steering linkage with metal gears that resist stripping, a sealed housing that shrugs off water and mud, and a generous torque feel for heavy 1/8 scale chassis.
Strong turning effort suited to heavy 1/8 scale cars, buggies, and bashers.
Metal gear train resists stripping instead of wearing like plastic gears.
Sealed case handles wet grass, puddles, and muddy runs.
Comes with a servo horn and mounting hardware for a direct fit.
Metal gear train in a sealed aluminum case
The gear train is metal for wear resistance, the case is rigid aluminum, and output runs through a splined shaft with a sealed drive so grit stays out.
- βͺΒ Β Metal gear train. Steel and metal teeth hold up to hard steering loads instead of chewing through.
- βͺΒ Β Aluminum case. Rigid case stays square under torque and dissipates heat.
- βͺΒ Β Sealed drive. Gaskets keep water and dust away from the gears and motor.
- βͺΒ Β Splined output shaft. A standard spline mates to the included servo horn.
Remove, mount, link, and center
Swap the old servo in a few simple steps; center your radio trim before fitting the horn.
Set your transmitter steering trim to center before installing the horn.
Disconnect the lead, remove the mounting screws and horn, then lift it out.
Fit the horn, screw the servo down with the included hardware, and route the lead.
Connect the steering rod, power on, and test left and right travel before driving.
General specs, compare before fitting
Typical values for a generic compatible replacement servo; verify voltage, spline, and case size against your model before ordering.

Servo choice at a glance
Same steering job, three choices. Here is how they line up.
| At a glance | This product | Stock plastic servo |
|---|---|---|
| Gears | Metal, strip resistant | Plastic, strips under load |
| Sealing | Water resistant case | Open to dust and water |
| Steering | Holds firm under bashing | Slips and drifts |
No surprises in the pack
You receive one servo with its horn and mounting hardware; the RC car and receiver are not included.

One metal-gear servo with horn and mounting hardware to restore firm, precise steering.
Verify voltage, spline, and mounting size before ordering; the car, receiver, and transmitter are sold separately.
Keep the linkage free and centered
A few habits keep the servo strong and responsive.
- βͺΒ Β Center before fitting. Set trim to neutral before pressing the horn onto the spline.
- βͺΒ Β Keep the rod free. Make sure the steering linkage does not bind at full lock.
- βͺΒ Β Rinse mud off. Wash away dirt after muddy runs so the lead and case stay clean.
- βͺΒ Β Check the spline. Tighten the horn screw and recheck it after the first few runs.
It is a generic compatible servo; confirm voltage, spline count, and mounting spacing match your model before ordering rather than relying on brand fit alone.
No. You receive one servo with horn and hardware; the car, receiver, and transmitter are sold separately.
Approximately 25kg/cm as a typical value; treat it as approximate and verify against your steering needs before buying.
The sealed case is water resistant for wet runs and puddles, not submersible; avoid fully submerging the servo.
Yes, set your transmitter steering trim to neutral before fitting the horn so left and right travel match.
