How much steering torque for a GMAXX w 3.3 suspension?
 

Hi Guys,
I am going to start a GMaxx G3 and G3.3 BL setup with a Novak HV Maxx 6.5. This will have a SuperMaxx Gen 4 steering setup, and I wanted to know how much torque to have in the Steering Servo? I have a Hitec Digital HS-5945MG with 181 oz/in at 6v, which is what it would get from the Novak ESC. Is this enough, given the chassis I mentioned? Thanks for your help.

anything above 10-11 kg/cm would do. unless you are using huge tires. I like mine fast. You could add an external UBEC to get the full 6V, but i thought the novak deliverd 6V as it is?

Thank you for your help Serum. Thanks to handy online torque conversion tables, 181 oz/in of torque = 13 kg/cm, so I guess I am OK with the Hitec I mentioned. And yes, the Novak ESC in the BL system delivers 6 volts to the steering servo.

My other thought was to go to a dual servo setup, but no reason to add to the weight of the rig if one servo will do the trick.

i think the hitech 5945 is the minimum for that car, to be safe ide use something like an airtronics 361 or so.
