Servo Saver for Cat SX

[mikeyscott]

Any particular one? I'm running a sanwa in the Cat

[bigred5765]

dont use one,

If you have a metal gear servo you can probably get away without one. I don't use one with my ACE metal gear servo. I used a non metal gear servo for 5 months before it stripped the gears.

It all comes down to how much you crash and how badly. I generally don't have many breakages (maybe 7 in total) or bent front screws on my SX, and others have heaps.

the trouble with running a servo saver is it makes the car feel vague,and not very accurate to drive,and not just this car any car,

to answer the question though-
The one off the Mi3 touring car fits ok, but it rubs a little on the top of my ace servo. The kimbrough medium is a direct fit also, but it may rub a tad on the vertical side part of the undertray and the side shell. This can be mitigated with a dremel by shortening the threaded part of the ball stud and a skinny (non-nyloc) nut.
There may be others, ofna, racers edge....dont know about those. I stripped the stock plastic horn pronto, and I crash too much to get away with a metal horn for very long.

@jlong:then try to get hold of a BMax servo arm. Not really a servo saver but flexing enough to protect your servo.

Never heard of that, but I would like to check it out. Where to look?-Thanks.

Yokomo part nr. YBM.200.

Better you find someone who has a BMax and ask for the arm as there are a lot of parts you won`t need in this sparepart
