Gen8 ESC Jumper Issue plus what size screw is the servo horn screw?

[smithe68]

Got my Gen8 yesterday and noticed that the jumper for the drag break is the opposite of what the sticker says on the ESC. In the 50% position it's 100% drag and in the 100% position it's 50% drag. This leads me to wonder if the Lipo jumper is also wrong, how would I tell?

My other issue is on my first drive, even after checking all the screws were snug before my first drive, the servo horn screw fell out! In all the misc screws that came in the box, only one fits but it's too long, any idea of what part number it is or what the specs are on it so I can replace it?

Thanks!

Im not the greatest at electronics, so I wont lead you the wrong way. I will say though, that if you call Redcat, they are very helpful and will walk you through it. Ive used there phone service a few times myself. Love the pic, btw.

Thanks, I will give them a call tomorrow. Super nice area to trail around and climb some rocks and it's just a few minutes of walking from my house.

Right but which one is which? I am not convinced the sticker that shows this information is correct since it's incorrect for the drag brake.

Me and my friend both had our servo screws fall out. His was the screw that held the servo saver to his servo. My screw was the one that held the steering arm to the servo horn. Was about to post this issue to the forum.

I haven't found the right screw yet or called. I used the too long screw and a washer to make it work for the moment. Pure laziness on my part. Going to contact Redcat today since I can't find the screw on their site. I will post what i find.

Editing because Redcat got back to me, they say 3x8 and will go by what they say! I should add they said the 3x14 would work but it's too long so 3x8 or 3x10. I ordered both.
