My servo saver mod for Cougar

[Mr. Red]

Thought I show you what I did tonight. It is a Tamiya Hi torque servosaver that I used together with the tip of a standard Schumacher servo arm to achieve the right length. Did NOT dremel anything on the bulk above to make this work. I did all the dremeling on the saver itself. I had to move the servo back/down to clear the bulk even more and get the right angle as before since the tamiya saver has got a different offset than standard servo arm. This works with low profile servos such as mine but dont know with standard sized servos.
Let the picks speak for them selves. Not good looking with filed alloy but it is more function than looks this mod.

I love the work, but I've had 3 full race days(12 races) without a problem. Nice to see the creativity but I don't think its needed.....yet

[Mr. Red]

I did it just in case. I would kill myself if I went to a meeting and DNF cus of a striped servo arm.
I`v got another problem anyway...those LRP speedos.

a servo saver will take all the positive feeling out of your steering,

[Mr. Red]

I`v had many positive feelings before with cars equipped with savers

ive made one very similar using a kimborough and cougar horn, works a treat, no more slipping the horn on the spline. that as happened to me a couple of times. but apparently the servo im using is a cirrus which as a 25 tooth spline is around 0.20 of a millimetre smaller than other servos on the spline. also the schmacher saver with the metal spring works, just need to bend the arm back a little so its 90degrees with the chassis and lightly file the top of the saver
