agreed, although i did switch out the gearset to try reduce the lash between the servosaver and output splines. the metal output splines were just a little tighter fit. i didn't notice a performance benefit, but it did increase peace of mind.

that was with the small white futaba specific model, i have since started using the medium general purpose model. it centers better but it needs some reliefs ground to fit in the short radius holes. (the short holes are very close to the middle holes of the small servo)
