GPM MZM servo saver suckage

Post by pimpsmurf »

GPM's MZM servo saver is shoddy in my opinion. It will possibly require some modification to eliminate the binding in the action. If it can't move, it won't do any servo saving, and hence ate my stock servo gears. hopefully delrin gears and a new stock servo saver will help.

Not worth it IMHO,

I lubed it from brand new with nice graphite, and it still had binding, so I lubed it with Team Associated Green Slime grease (like I use on all my gears) and it was a little better, but still way too hard to turn. The stock one is much more smooth, although it provides much less resistance to turning.

I just give it :o :o

just stick with the stock plastic one, i've never heard of one breaking.
alloy on alloy tends to grip not slip like delrin/plastic.
