Servo Mount Upgrade for Arrma Kraton, Talion and Typhon

Looks nice. I prefer 1-piece mounts. Fewer screws to come loose.

I run 4 of the VH mounts and have never had a screw come loose.

Oh boy you teed that one up for me....

I’m gonna be the bigger man and leave it alone. ???✌?

A little JB Weld and they're all one piece.

Or just buy the single piece CNC machined one for the same price and skip the hassle ??

As long as it works its all good!! Also, ordered from #VoltageHobby, skid plates for the Front and Rear and also front and Rear shock Tower mounts as well. Also, I got in my Servo Mount that I posted above!

It's not the same price when GKA comes from Canada and I have to pay close to $50 for the part+shipping.

they look nice but beware they'll bend if you're bashing hard. i bent the hell out of mine and have since put carbon ones on, which both look nice, and stand up to brutal bashing.

First time I've heard of them. I'll check 'em out.

Oh, they make just the mounts.

Where do you get the carbon towers?

So far stock has held up but I'm slowly uping my bashing. pulled a 180 double back flip with the Noto yesterday! ?...as well as several roof plants ?

bought the carbons a few years ago after i bent the stock ones, then bought hot racing ones, i thought they looked better, but i bent them pretty quick. put the carbons back on and they continue to take all abuse i can give.

Thank you for the armorwerks suggestion, ordered 2.

does anyone know if this is still an issue on the V4 typhon?

 

[Phaedrus]

Is what still an issue?

Isn't this thread about servo mounts?

 

[Phaedrus]

There was some drift, wasn't sure what he was asking about.

Mystery Typhon is a V4. Was not having any issues with the mount, but since I was swapping in a better servo I decided to upgrade the mount.

I just received my servo mount yesterday going to install it today hopefully. Looks good and should hold up with my cheap JX 32kg servo a little over 400oz. Will post pictures soon.
