No it is not needed. Just make sure that the linkage is not binding up. You should be able to pull the throttle linkage out and more the carb while the servo does not move. This shows that it is not binding and moves freely.

As for the servos, Nick I dont mess with anything thats under 300 oz of torque. Come on those might look pretty but their specs are horrible.

For a heli they have awesome specs but you are right, I dont think I would even use the cyclic one on throttle/brake.

hrmm, now im thinking which would benefit more....buggy or truggy.....

Does anyone have (2) blank switch plates they are willing to sell? I converted mine to electric and no longer need the cutout. I would buy them new but you have to buy the whole tray ($18). Please let me know, Thanks......

spindle/spindle carrier...shim or not...
 
on my new 8T 2.0 roller, i've got some(approx 8mm) of "up/down" spindle play where the pivot pins connect it to the spindle carrier. a 8mm washer takes all the play out. just seems that 8mm is alot of play....is it a good idea to SHIM out the up/down play..??
