Default Servo Savers

...or lack therof. I notice alot of you guys are running an alluminum arm straight to your steeering linkage. So do you just carry a spare set of servo gears, or do your gears hold up fairly well? Say for example on a Hitech HS-645MG...

The blokes that run the straight arms at ORCRC dont seem to have any problems 'yet,' but I guess time will tell. A lot of them run 1/4 servos, which are more difficult to mess up.

I run Kimborough HD servo savers and love them. I dont steer quite as sharp, but it doesnt hamper my performance I don tthink...

...so how many times have you stripped a 945 and doing what? Just wondering how well they hold up... I've never run without a Kimbrough.

I stripped the gears in a my 645 after only 2 batteries.
I ordered a new set of gears for $18 and they have held together for about 2 dozen batteries or so.

Also, No Saver.
