Servo spline problem and ordering ?
 
Ignore the post in the current draw thread. Same one.:D

First question - I had a 945 hi torque servo last year in my T-Maxx for racing. I ran a Trinity 6 volt receiver pack to it. Every servo saver I used on it, stripped out. It was like the splines were totally different from any servo saver I could find. And yes, I even counted the splines numerous times to make sure I had the right one. It would strip so easily that even after landing a jump, it would mess up the steering alignment. So, the real question is, what could have caused or prevented this? I got so bad, after 5 savers, that I ran an aluminum arm direct to the linkage just so I could finish a race.

Second question - I currently have a Lynx 3d w/spectra/novak combo and a 5945 servo ordered. That stuff was all on back order, but I noticed that my account was now charged for the full order amount. Does this mean that everything is in stock and ready to ship?

t-d-motorsports: where did you order it from?

Checkout the OFNA or GS servo savers...

order
 
It's a special order through Hitec. We're working on a test project.

As far as the servo savers, I've tried GS, Kimbrough, stock, and an HPI direct plastic one also. The aluminum is the only one to grip.

Never had an issue like that with the servo saver before.....??

That servo does have a lot of holding power.....even more at 6V...
