Man I'm a SPAZ!!

Its been a long time since I messed with my Xmods boards but I will throw out some ideas.

The first thing I would do is make sure that the steering is centered mechanically before installing the rest. Remove the servo horn, power up the board and check if the servo will center and turn both directions. The transmitter should always self center each time its turned on but you may want to see if changing its trim affects the steering. If it will only turn one way its possible the servo is bad. If it turns both ways equally then re-install the horn so its centered. This is also helpful when you do get it running so that when you turn on the transmitter each time you dont have to re-center the trim as much.

You might find some helfpul tips on these websites and forums.

There may also be others that a nice Google search could reveal. Most of the information you will find will be old but hopefully you can get it sorted out with what you find.
