I have a Servo that continually buzzes no matter what I do, Does this mean it is going Bad?
Also, when flying, It looked like a servo was doing its own thing for a second or two, it happened twice and after that, I grounded it . it would suddenly pop down on the right side and I corrected it, all very quick.
Running a spectrum Ar 7000.?

WOuld you want your T700 to smackdown for want of a servo playing up which seemed to be misbehaving ? - I'd rip it out and put another in just for peace of minnd :)

Take the servo horn off of the servo that is making the noise. If the noise stops, then you need to check the tension on the push pull linkages.

This could also be the reason that the servo is acting up in-flight.

Thanks for the input, im learning from each reply.
I took the servo apart and found a Gear with 3 missing teeth, replaced it
seems to be fine, no buzzing. I dodged a bullet this time.
