Just pulled it apart now, seems the small plastic gear has gone.
Ran the car a few times, didnt do much to it on this occasion, odd landing and the car was still on 4 wheels then it went pop.

i will stand corrected bit ko stuff is more for on road,you can order the plastic part and is much cheaper than a new servo,but it will go again,as bigred5765 says your better off with what he said

I tried using servo savers a few years ago but the biggest problem is that most of them are not strong enough as they end up trying to save the servo in sweeping corners and it makes the car feel really bad. I just run a Savox now and it is job done. I know that if you hit anything hard enough you will still break it

Savox servo here with no issues...also ran a Futaba metal gear servo with no problem. Definitely switch to metal gear and you wont have any servo problems
