1.9 steering servo
 
What is everyone running for a steering servo on the 109 Wraiths? I picked up one of the 25KG servos, but it was so tall the servo arm contacted the panhard bar. I ended up mounting the servo from the top and used a Baja Ray servo arm to clear everything.

Mounting the servo from the top presented a problem because the electronics box would no longer go on because Axial decided that form > function and it's more important for the electronics box to look like an engine than actually be functional. I had to design and 3D print a new box cover. While I was at it I gave myself 10mm more room on the inside to stuff the wiring for my BEC bypass harness. Not my best print, but it works. I still despise that the screws are on the bottom instead of somewhere actually convenient.

That is a nice fix. I agree with you on the function vs looks on the front end. Does anyone know which servos are short enough to drop in without doing this mod?

I have run the Eco 120t from a main and am now using the Protek 370 tlb with no problems
