Default Locked up Servo (CS-170/7955/5955)....repairable?

I have a Hobbico CS-170 for steering in my 8ight-t E 1.5 that is locked up. I came down hard off a large jump on the track, had some pretty bad chassis slap and it just locked up. When I give it power it just buzzes. I am also unable to turn it manually with the power off. From what I remember when I bought it about 5 years ago it is a rebranded Hitec 5955 or 7955. Can this be repaired?

I just took it apart and the gear set is fine. The motor is seized. I assume this means it is time to shop for a replacement?
