And when i change it into more powerful metal gear like HITEC servo it brakes the front arm when i hit the wall. well that's my error and mistake anyway. The question is, is there's a way to soften the actions of the TC5 servo saver?
There is a threaded adjuster that goes on the spring of the servo saver, make sure it is fairly loose, tigher = less saver action, looser = more. All ive ever run are high power mg digital servos and i have no issues with teh stock plastic arms. if you are still having trouble maybe get an aluminum servo arm or maybe a servo saver arm (kimbrough 201 is very good, not sure if it will fit)
