As above!
I am using a HS82 mg and it is the same size as the futaba ones some guys are running.
Does anyone have theirs very close to the canopy? ( mine is rubbing on the horn at the spline )

What if you mount the servo with out the rubber grommets and put your ball link facing the frames to give you more clearance.

Pete,
Its got no grommets fitted and the ball does face backwards my friend.
The servo is fitted against the frame, so no more movement allowed there!
Its actually the horn at the shaft end that catches, ( not the ball end of the horn ).

Hi Glenn,
One solution would be to add a few washers under the front canopy standoff on that side - about 1.5mm worth should to it. This will not be noticeable and should provide the servo with a little extra room.
Cheers,

I have put spacers under it and it still catches , ( only slightly though )
It will be okay.
Cheers
