Ok, so as some of you know I have both Savox Monster Performance series servos. Ever since burning up my 1211sg (idk if burnt is exactly right, Savox did get me my new one already?) I have been freaking out, and babying my $150 (w/tax) servos. I went thru my entire steering system, rebuilt bearings, installed new bell cranks, set my saver down from max to 5mm, and replaced the bell crank top plate screws (found out this is where I think my problem was, and that the screws are an exact M4x12 & that you want a "gap"). I even went and installed a new horn, link, and put the plastic spacers back in under the tabs.
Now mind you I have a Voltage servo mount, and with the spacers installed under the tabs the link with stock horn just rubs the top case when going full left (just barely, see this vid )
I have a couple of options as I see it. 1) Loose the plastic risers and mount the tabs directly to the mount 2) Use the rubber grommets, but cut them in half & use just the bottoms under the tabs. My concern with going straight mount is that this is not line other plastic ear servos, where the plastic is a good thing as it transfers less shock to the internals, that's why I was thinking of keeping some sort of protection under the tabs. What do you'll think? ?
