4200 Excavator problems

[gmmiller06]

I will be checking into the issue hopefully sometime over the Thanksgiving holiday. I am sure it is probably one of the servos based on all of you guys input. Does anyone have any recommendations on possibly upgrading to a better servo since I am replacing it anyway most likely? Or should I replace it with another servo of the same type? I also have a video that captured the malfunction twice the other day. If you don't care to see the whole video the malfunctions happen after the 10 min mark in the video.

I bought the same servo, I think it was the upgraded or newer servo to the one' that came with it, I think i got it from tower hobby, or one of the larger hobby supplier's, just get the model number off of the old one and one of the hobby sites will tell you which one is the upgraded version of that servo.

They are cheap enough and last long enough in my view not to worry much about it..I only had to replace one so far. Let us know how it goes!
