<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good work. I recently had a spline break off of a Hitec "carbonite" output gear. I believe it was due to the output arm screw being too short. The replacement screw is longer and threads through the spline into the gear itself. Wondered how deep your screws went and if they would help to hold the splines on?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>There is a warning/notice on the Hitec website about the short screws and early karbonite gear servos. They will fix under warranty, or send you a new screw if the output spline isn't broken.</DIV></DIV>
