      the rudder linkages look like they are straight off the servo, but come out of the transom at some extreme angles.

      And you say you have changed the servo ?

        It goes something like this in SS tubes.

        And yes, I have tried another servo.

            are you using flexible cable?

            How are you connecting the two ESC's signal wires together are they Y harnessed ?

              Yes, I use flexible cables. Thats also Stainless steel.

              The ESC's are connected with Y split.

                can you run in a straight line at all with out touching the steering ?
                if not it has to be servo related,if you hold the rudder and turn the tx wheel is there any slop

                  Since you've tried another servo, and it still does it, I'd say it's a radio interfernce issue. What tx/rx are you using. Have you swapped it and tried another?

                    Try this, Put the boat in the water, Hold the sides firmly, have a friend slowly pull the trigger. watch the rudder movement and the thrust from each prop. Find out if the issue is drive line or steering

                      I was looking hard at your pictures rather deeply, Is one of your + wires removed from your Y connector either side L or R? if not you may have harmed the Rx. I want to say Rx all the way, I run the Futaba FASST systems on everything I own ( currently trying to hook the wife up to one ) And I think they are the BEST! But one wrong move and the Rx is junk.... Also have you ever got the Rx wet? Does it hold it's bind to your Tx? I have pluged the backward for one sec and it was junk, barely got one wet and it was junk, one would'nt hold it's bind and caused the boat (SV27) to dive straight down under water..
                      I may be wrong but I suggest you try a new Rx.

                        tuslow,did you keep the rx that you plugged power up to back to front.
                        it should have a reverse power protection circuit,that will burn out and save the rest of the rx.
                        i did the same on one of my spektrum rx,s.the parts worth about $1 and takes about 5 min to replace

                            tell you what... if the rudder or linkage are the cause of the issue... remove the rudder blade and see if it's better!... I'm not joking!

                                I was actually planning to try this. But I have tried to hold the boat while my brother pushed the throttle and I could not see anything wrong.
