The stock Gorgon servo gave out. Replaced with a Power HD 23kg one I had saved for a other rig that never got used. It is brand new. Put new servo saver as well cause it broke too. It's a PITA to change all that out. 6s is so much easier to work on. Anyway turned it on & the servo whistled. I set trim & endpoints all while it was whistling. Turned fine. Way faster & stronger. Turned it many times all whistling. Cycled the power & it went away. Cycled the wheels several times. Whistling was gone. Cycled power again. No whistle. Just the 1st cycle. Never had a servo do that. Always had great results from Power HD. Fluke? Normal? Thoughts?

I guess if it went away I'm good.

I've never had luck with parts that started bad.... especially electronics. If it's at all returnable/replaceable without too much trouble I would go that route. The problem will probably show up again.

I feel guilty having to deal with Amazon because of my lack of a LHS but when things are wrong, I just order a new one and return the cruddy one they sent me.
