Does it saty jammed to the right? If so then you pulled tyhe orange wire from the servo if not. Then center ur servo here (www.atomicmods.com) and go to the How to section to lear n how to center your servo.

it will turn left, but it has a wide left turning radius and sometimes gets jamed. which is bad since i run my track witht left turns. i'm always hittin the walls :( im sure i pulled no wires cuz it is capable of turnig most of the time

I received my carbon fiber upgrade chassis today.
The first was a little challenging, but the second was easy.
On the first, I found the steering an issue.
Later, I figured it out. The guide pins on the steering rod was bumping against the servo head. So, I raised it up and the problem went away.

Yes this happens to most cars they have a tendency to vere off to the right well you can fix it by centering ur servo.

I slipped a yellow (bearing) under it to prop it up...
That is on the Carbon fiber kit.
I do not have the regular one one me right now to check...
