Hi I baught a Rampage MT few days ago and was really happy exploring till my stupid cousin start moving the steering/tires manually put me in discomfort that now it will dis-align or broke eventually.


Someone please advise doing does it hurt the Steering trim or Steering Servos? [emoji25]

Shouldn't hurt anything but doing it a lot will eventually cause undue wear on the gears in the servos and increase slop in the linkages.

This is what servos are designed to do and under highest stress when the car is on ground,lol! No worries! Wearing is going to happen at last when it's time for it. But not right away under normal use including your stupid cousin doing (lol, sorry)! As long as the servo was free to move and not restricted you are fine.

Thanks for making me confident about my MT. I was stressed that vehicle is going to malfunction due to this.
