No but I was thinking of a tubular servo guard. It would be easy to incorporate an arm guard into it. I'll think about it a little more. My arm is bent to a lot.

Or you could be cool like me and put your steering links behind the axle so you dont smash them.

I bolted my steering servo skid from my E-maxx on the front of my TXT. Worked good just stuck out too far off the front. I was thinking of fabbing a small stinger type guard too.

You obviously have not drivin your TXT with your 1/4 scale servos!

Lets see how fast break your steering knuckles.

Also 1/4 scale servo's do not move the linkage out of the way. If anything it is more out in the open because the servo is SOO big.
