Electronic Issues? What Did I Break?

So last night after charging my battery.

I decided to take my AX-10 for a rip.... Only problem.

The ESC light constantly flashes back and forth between red and green.

It makes a buzzing noise.

And steering works at maybe... 10% of what it should. Meaning only left, never right, and then only 1 out of 10 tries at turning!!!

What have I blown up?

The steering servo? The ESC?

Thanks!

Figured it out on my own...

Steering servo is shot.

Already replaced with an Airtronics 200oz servo.

Now... How on Earth do you center it?!

Pretty sure you just plug it in, turn it on and it'll set itself to center.
Then make sure your wheels are straight and put the servo saver or servo horn on.

Ha ha! Yeah, totally simple!

I put the steering linkage on BEFORE I turned it on. So its center was way way way off! I couldnt trim it enough to bring it back in line.

Of course! Put the linkage on AFTER you flip the switch and it centers itself.

Thank you!!!
