now the ears on the servo might be next. have you thought about making a gaurd. i am guessing that your servo horn is pointing up.

Why not fix the larger problem of your servo arm bashing rocks. Try positioning your servo so it doesn't hit them.

How would those keep you from breaking servo arms?

Yeah, I meant servo ears..... I used to bend servo horns a lot until I went BTA.

my servo arm runs parallel with the ground. it bends when i take a tumble down the hill and it hits a rock. not always just sometimes.
