Going insane with servo issues

[Lil Dylan]

My Noto has gone through 4-5 servos this year. After I killed the last 2 (all within a few weeks) I realized there was a severe bind in the my steering system so I thought I had this figured out. I bought a new servo last week and its dead within two batteries. Endpoints are all set extremely conservatively, BEC is all set correctly. Servo saver is softest you can go. I have absolutely no idea what to do. I've spent maybe $200 on servos this year. My Kraton is still on original servo. All of the breakages seem to be electronic. Haven't been able to find any physical gear breakage. MMX6s, sr6100 receiver.

Huh. That is weird. I have a 40kg HV Power HD servo in my Notorious. Been doing great. But I added aluminum bellcrank & HD saver too w all the fancy bearing & shims. Maybe the receiver is going bad? I don't know if thats a thing. Surely someone on here can help. You're in the right place.

My only guess is its the receiver. I guess I put a new one in with a new servo and see if it blows up? Just sucks to keep buying new ones.

Just realized I have an sr2100 receiver from my old race buggy. Going to try that with a new servo and just hope for the best? There doesn't seem to be any way to do diagnostics on this stuff which really pissed me off.
