Somehow it would seem to me that waiting until Friday afternoon isn't going to get you any quick factory answers over the weekend.

The stock size is a 2.3 x 5 mm screw.

Try Micro Fasteners for something longer than stock.

You need a longer screw than the stock size so you need something around a 2.3 x 8mm screw. I dont know where to get bulk screws in that size if micro fasteners didn't have them. Sorry.

yeah i been checking around, and not one place sells a 2.3 x 5mm - 6mm - 8mm - or anything in the 2.3 size. micro fasteners has them at 6mm i think but i need them longer. i had a salesman from hitec send me a couple screws a while back but when i asked him where i could get them, he never replied to me again. kinda bummed since this servo i have had a lot of luck with.

nitrilo,

i use 3Racing servo savers on my mlst, they are shorter and as such the screw can be shorter. They use the stock springs though.

The few screws we had came from our parent company in Korea. Where they get them from we have no idea. Unfortunantly, I dont know where to direct you to find bulk of these screws.
