It was my fault because i left it on and it burned the servos out,

so what i need is 2 new servos and a receiver box,

just wondering do i have to put the same receiver box and same servos back on or can i use whatever ones i want?  pics below

From what i know, You can use pretty much any standard size servo's but if you buy a different make/model reciever you more then likely need a new transmitter to.

reciever looks okay to be honest.....

As for the fire - its started at the servo wires near the servo....... as the majority of the cable is good....

Go on ebay - get a New Radio box of a new model that was stripped down - cheapest option

As for servo's get any standard size servo - Something torquey for the steering and something with reasonabe torque for the brakes so that t can put enough pressure on the brakes
