Mule on here has one on the stock plate... Just has it bent and 2 bolts diagnol from each other holding it in. It isn't hard to make one though.

I have a ht645 on my mini. It will not fit on the stock servo mount cleanly. I fabed one up from lexan and it worked fine.

If you also have an Axial AX10 servo mount just use one of those and superimpose the bolt pattern onto it. Works like a charm.

Why is that? I have been running one on mine for a while and have not had any issues.

Ditto Although mine is being used for the rear. But still, I've tortured it for a while now with no trouble.

Alright i'm just going to go with a 225. You guys can whine and gripe, but i'm going with it. If it goes out, it goes out. My stock servo has held up fine all week without a servo saver. Worst comes to worst, i know someone with an extra 645.

I contacted Hitec about my 225mg that died after about 15 mins of good wheeling and they said NOT to use the 225 but to go with the 645 or bigger. Its not too much work to rig up a plate. My 645 has lasted quite a few battery pack now and still staying strong!! Keep in mind if you up grade the servo you will prob need to upgrade your esc shortly after ( for losi's will fry ).
Good luck!!

you can use a novak or castle creations BEC to help power the bigger servo and save the ESC
