Kraton Kraton 6s weak steering

[Dshaf]

Hello, just purchased a used kraton 6s and truck runs great, only issue is steering very slow and sluggish. Thinking a new servo will solve the issue. Any recommendations on a stronger servo for the kraton?

Welcome to the forum!! Looks good! Like a V5 w/ a RPM bumper. I responded on RCT. Looks like a BLX motor.

A SAVOX 1210sg, reefs raw 500, promodeler 930, 40kg DS from Amazon, PowerHobby.
Personally I like a really strong servo so it can take some abuse. 400 inch lbs atleast to turn the wheels good. I run the Perfect Pass in my Kraton XL and a Promodeler 930 in my EXB. They’re expensive but they last and the wheels turn all the way on any surface. Nice looking rig. Red BLX Motor?

Stock Kraton servo is pretty weak. Servo upgrade will make a big difference. Depends on your budget, high torque with high speed costs more.

Does it have the S652? Are you on a budget? Go to Jenny’s and grab an S665. Much better.

I was also going to suggest this. I think they're great for the price that part pullers are selling them for. Cash4RC had a brand new looking one for $14 a few days ago.

Forgot you'll need to change the arm also. The S652 is 23T. S665 is 25T.

This is a good one.

When I bought the 665 from Jenny’s, I just bought the steering setup for the new EBS. Got the arm I needed and spare parts for the rest of it.
