It is used on road so it does cop a bit of a bashing but after a shunt last night the servo saver has been constantly slipping (even slow driving) and im thinking of just switching it to direct. Have tightened the saver right up also. Still not much help...
Help appreciated,

I've been using a direct horn for over a year now, both indoors and out. Not done a single servo (S9550) and I've had some big hits (one split the chassis plate, and sheared the servo mount screw... servo was fine though!).
I do use a plastic one though (it's a futaba X horn cut down), so it has a bit more give anyway, and will snap in a major impact.
Tried a saver on my 416 recently, didn't like it so went back to the solid horn. My main issue was getting the setting to center to the same position consistenly... switched back to the solid, no issue
