4-6MM is where you want the servo saver.

Im running a Spektrum 6040 and the stock plastic arm with the saver at the stock setting. No trouble here and I have quite a bit of track time on my truck now. I just try not to hit poles and pipes.

..........p.s. if you look, this is what most tekno drivers are running as well, maybe a diff horn but pretty much the same. i'd stay away from the hb horn due to increase stress on servo, i snapped inside middle plastic piece (on 1/8 scale) in servo were output shaft comes thru. replaced middle plastic plate and horn to ofna, and been fine since, and thats an 1/8 scale, so you know that servo can take the abuse. NEVER stripped anything

I ended up ordering an Associated 1015DS servo. I've had zero problems with this servo in my 1/8 & I ordered an aluminum arm just to have just in case

Im running the KO Propo 3mm Aluminum servo arm. Works great. First pic is of the arm itself and the second pic is how I mounted the arm to the servo saver

I'm hoping it's really because I'm running the +3 Assoc rims/wheels and the axles themselves are not a weak point, crashes were not all that bad, just happened to come down on that tire first after trying to triple thru traffic...twice

Plan on eventually switching over to the correct rims but I have a box full of the +3 stuff laying around...

I have a few sets of the +3 Hazard wheels too (from my SC10). Did you have rubbing problems at all on the SCT410? I ordered a set of SCTE wheels with my Tekno order so I'll have those just in case. Just hope I can still use all my +3 wheels still since a couple sets the tires are practically new.

Any scte body is a direct fit. I'm using the tlr high performance sct body. It looks great but its really thin. Probably going with a jconcepts next.

where are your axles breaking off at? In the threads where the locknut goes? At the hole where the pin goes through? Do you have any pictures to share?
