Once I finish the servo list I'll add a small paragraph describing how to tighten up the servo saver, since it's made to protect the wimpy stock servo and is much too soft for a high torque or metal gear servo.
Right now i'm using the stock servo saver w/ the DS285mg. Should I go the HS65 route and upgrade it the Associated one? If it fits and works that is.

I would like to know how they got the 225 to work as well. Unless they "shoe-goo'd" it directly to the chassis, which I could see would fit /work. But I wanted to at least use the stock mounts and i'm fairly certain that using the the 2 straight mounts the servo wasnt wide enough.

Maybe tomorrow if I get some free time at work, I could email the guys that are using the 225mg and get some photos of their setup and how they installed it to helpout w/ this thread.


Side note, I would like to see the HS81mg sitting in this chassis as well. I have one in my gf's old micro and I have an HS85 in my micro. Not that I really wanted to tear open my micro again. But I do have access to those servos.
