KST Servos
Hey Guys,
Do KST servos not come w/Grommets or Brass Eyelets? Just ordered this (http://www.helidirect.com/kst-ds515m...ze-p-30077.hdx) and didn't come w/any. Also... Is the main servo shaft supposed to continuously rotate w/o stopping?

Is this a dead forum?

That's pretty ridiculous. How do they expect you to mount the darn servo? Did you notice if the output shaft on your KST DS515mg manually rotates around continuously w/o stopping?

Just looled up the price for those grommets per your part number above. Cheapest I could find was $6 bucks. So now a $65 servo turns into a $71 servo. Hope it's worth it.
Have you gotten a chance to try it yet or do you know anyone who's using it as a tail servo on a T500? Do you think it will cut the mustard?

its a 500 size servo so should be no problem for a 500. the grommets are not really needed for an electric as the vibration is almost none existent. the reason i need to use the grommlets is because the Forza 450 calls for them in a 500 size servo otherwise the screws are too long. so I either need shorter screws or grommets.
