    Mhz Mystic S turning problem

    Hi

    My twin Mystic S turns when I drive straight. It takes pretty sharp turns just out of nowhere. I havent had it in any high speeds yet, because of this problem... Original setup is: 2 x Neu 1515, 2 x Turnigy 180A esc, 2 x Rhino 4900 4S Packs. I have tried to switch to Feigao 540XL and CC Hydra 120A without any difference. Can the boat be to heavy? Please help me :-)

      The servo should be good enough, its a Futaba S9551. I also tried to switch to a Power HD servo just to try. The linkage it SS push pull system, cant see thats the problem.

        What is your radio? Have you done a range test?
        does it happen at a certain distance?

          Its Futaba 4PK. I cant drive at all, it happens all the time and both ways.

                Graupner K series? 1.4 pitch...

                Do you have any video of it doing what you describe?

                  Yes, Graupner K 1,4 pitch.
                  I will try to get a video later to day.
                  Thanks for feedback.

                        You're running inward. (more stability)
                        try reversing the rotattion to outward (more speed) AFTER you figure out the issue first!

                          you said you switched from NEU's to Feigao's and still she turns in straight right?
                          so this doesn't seem to be a motor/power difference between L and R!
                          does she turn slowly or is it brutal?
                          are you running L and R flex? that might sounds to be a dumb question but... if not then one flex unwinds and creates more friction so less power at prop is the result.
                          beside of this, I can't see any water pick up, are they flush to the bottom?

                              No play in the rudder.
