Steering and drive train problem

[ryujinjakka74]

I'm building a new ET48 2.0 and there seems to be a problem with the front end steering. When the steering is straight everything moves buttery smooth. forward and reverse on the drive system and turning with the Bell crank system. BUT, when I turn the steering to either side the drive train no longer wants to spin! I followed the instructions and even followed along with a full build video on youtube while building. Can anyone help?

Only guessing but I’d be going over the set up on the electronics. Setting the transmitter end points etc . Steering servo plugged into channel one on receiver . One to turn two to burn
As they say
Again only guessing but I’d start there as long as you’re sure there’s no mechanical bind

Have not put the electronics in yet but I will try that in a minute. Thanks for responding.

Double check your CVD’s are built correctly. I had what sounds like a similar issue and it turned out that was my problem.

Building the et48 2.0. On the front end the steering is binding with the 5075 coupler. When I steer left or right it the steering engages the coupler. Will try and attach pic. Thanks for the help.

Rebuilt both CVAs and that did the trick! I Had the pin through the hole and not the slot like a dumb A.
Thx for the help!!!
