What is the U.R.L. that Horizon is using for a complete servo listing?
I've got one dialed in, but while it lists quite a few servos, it
doesn't list anything in the 9000 series stuff at all. Actually, it
acts more like a hobby shop listing, than it does Horizon's official
web site. And, for some reason or other, Horizon's web site seems to
have a security problem; must be the wrong site. thanks.<br>

The conversion set to make a 9411 into a 9411SA are 9011 gears,</font></span></div>

hand and let it hit the "stops" anywhere near firmly, it strips the
little gear next to the motor. The motor keeps on going and does the
damage. Both the metal and plastic gear sets use the same last gear,
which is plastic.</font></span></div>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I had two DS9411's coverted to SA .
A gear , or gears, stripped in both with relatively no torque by hand.
They could have easily crashed an airplane. Does the stock SA have all
plastic gears, or only one or two ? These were converted to all plastic.</font></div>
