Default Servosaver or not?

Hi,

I've just done a second set of gears on one of my Savox servos. I currently run without a servosaver, however I'm now thinking that maybe I should run one.

What are you guys running, and can you recommend a decent saver?

I've run my X6 with a servo saver for about a year without problems. Glued it together on saturday as thought it might help handling. It made no difference and I snapped a servo horn 3rd race out on Sunday. I say they're a good thing!

i would never run without one, if you have space use the 1/8 kimborough servo saver for 10th buggy, problem is the amount it sticks down below the servo.

Matty would never run with one, makes the car slow and not very precise,

I can't find the Savox 1252MG on http://www.cmldistribution.co.uk/cml...d.php?brand=99

Are you sure it's that number?

Also, which bit of the gears has been 'done'?

Personally I run solid, no servo saver.
