Default Servo Saver

Hi,

Does anyone use a servo saver on a cat sx? or does everyone just run with a servo arm?

Adam

Ditto.

Sanwa and now a Savox 1258

Have recently purchased, but not fitted a Core RC servo horn. Thought it would be prudent to retain the flex from the plastic servo horn

I'm running a Kimbrough servo saver on mine with one of the low profile S9551 futaba servo's. Very happy with the setup and no stripped servo gears.

Me too. KP201 servo saver and a small cut out of the undertray side. Lots of guys seemed to be stripping the plastic servo horns and it seemed like a good solution.

I agree - we have a couple a tracks over here with some big jumps. Some people were stripping gears on servo's so I fitted the servo saver. I'm running the the 201 version.

The small Futaba servo allows me to use around 3mm spacer to mount the servo instead of the large one that spaces the servo far out. This allows me to run the steering linkage on the outside of the servo saver.
