I replaced mine with a metal servo mount I believe the part was from Axial too Then I used machined threaded screws to replace the coarse threaded screws that attach the mount to the axle this holds tighter

Hope this helps

Try some plumbing thread tape while you're waiting. It's often used in place of Loctite.

You can buy the standoffs (plastic or aluminum) separately, but for just a couple bucks more, this might be do the job better for you: https://www.amainhobbies.com/vanquis...SABEgLEfPD_BwE

Exactly what I was lookin for a few weeks ago. Why didn't I find that on their site?

Thanks!

I’ve been having the same problem, especially since adding a savox high torque servo.
I ended up installing some longer fine thread machine screws to replace the stock ones and hoping that does the trick until I can pick up the vanquish one piece mount.
My local ace hardware has all the machine screws I’ve ever needed for a reasonable price. Good luck!
Even with the vanquish mount you’ll still be mounting it to the plastic link mount/truss so machine screws are a good idea there unless you go aluminum link mount also just fyi

Thanks for all the advice, you all have been very helpful... I will be going with the Vanquish one piece mount as well. Seems this is a common problem with upgrading to a high torque servo.

Thanks again! Happy Trails!
