That's what everybody said, so a few years ago I glued the servos into a
new Extreme (5 min + lots of silica). That plane met an
early...ahem...demise...and I decided to test the servo removal theory.
Destroyed both flap servos...first tried twisting ("that always works")
and cleaned all the edges off the cases doing that. Then, tried the
rod-through-the-root-and-tap method ("that REALLY always works"). Uh
huh. Crushed the cases the rest of the way, and they STILL did not
budge. Ended up having to pry and pretty much wrecked the skins doing it.
No, never again. Even though I've only had to replace one servo in 5
years, I'll put up with the <.15 oz added weight and use frames.
