Does anyone who has a sorcerer find it tracks smooth? On my AFPilot the standard servo has a problem rolling at high speed. You can hear the servo ratchet as the stepper motor jumps. Once it does this it starts a sort of oscillation.  Back and forth at a fairly high rate. Doesn't turn to much. If I hold the stick steady it calms down. From what I see quite a few have had to upgrade to the higher torque servo. Since I just bought my setup this year would be nice had they just quoted it with the high torque knowing the standard might be too weak.
There was an S-TEC 55x in it before. But since the HSI was upgraded to glass nothing wanted to talk to it anymore. Barely a fancy wing leveler at that point.

Bill which tru track do you have? What is it hooked to that is driving it.
