I think you are talking about the servo saver, I thought they quit making them...actually, I hope you're right, I can think of a few applications.

  I believe they still have them, but now you have to find them in the Helicopter section....

     JR used to make a top bearing brace for the servos. It was a housing that went over the top of the servo and had a adjustable rod to the back of the servo connected to the brace.I use it on the rudder and it solves that problem of top bearing wear. Iv'e had the same problem before due to cable tension.
    We need to see if they are still available or get them to make them again.

      I'm probably the originator of the .070 carbon-dep system - about 86. Carbon/balsa fuses and kevlar/balsa fuses , are poor combinations, and I'm still using them. Both systems are vulnerable to temp and/or humidity changes and are a pain. Since I've been doing this since 86 I must be a slow learner. No slop but sometimes a trim change every hour.

      With balsa fuses, for elev, I plan to go (back) to a balsa dowell pushrod and use a crossover ( MK, or custom ? ) just in front of the stab. Not sure how to handle the rudder, two small hard balsa dowells ? I've had undue kevlar tension ruin two DS8411sa servos on an electric.                              Nat
