I will pay $50 if it will work well and hold up. I wonder if a person can fit the Hitec 5065 MG fit into the stock SC18/RC18 servo bracket? i think the 5065 is 1mm bigger in all dim than the AE 1016. Maybe someone makes an RC18 bracket for the 5065 servos? I will have to get the RC18 AE-Hitec servo saver as well and make it work with SC18.

I opened AE servo up and there are 2 teeth missing on the output gear...all other gears are fine. Looks like a nice servo.

I do have to wonder about the "wedge" style servo saver a bit. When I took mine apart...it was lined with dust/grit between the wedges...which has to have a big impact on the ammount of friction between the wedges. This could prevent the saver from working properly. Conventional servo saver won't have as much a problem with the dust/dirt.

I still blame my servo problem on driver training!

Smart thing would be to replace the gears in the servo I have..... while working this stuff out i guess.
