I can remember having to remove servos for gearset repairs and I remember 
having to glue one back in when the servo unglued itself at a contest (Eloy 
AZ). I can take the blame for all of the times this kind of stuff has happened, 
but when it happens, a glued in servo requires more effort to remove and 
replace than a screwed in servo. 
I have been making my own frames for a few years now by laminating spruce strip 
stock with overlaping corners by using the subject servo as a model, using thin 
CA as the glue, relieving where required for output arms and the wiring. Either 
screw the servo down thru the mounting flanges if using a wing servo or fab a 
small aluminum strap to hold the servo into the frame when using a conventional 
servo. These frames weigh next to nothing and can be glued into the wing with 
medium or black CA. Each frame takes about and hour to build up and for the 
frugal minded modeler, they are dirt cheap.
