I was wondering how most people install/mount their servos on the 450 SE V2. When I got mine, they were mounted with the screws that are included, 5mm allens course threads for plastic plastic. They were screwed into little plastic tab-like nuts on the inside of the frame. I'm not crazy about this since they aren't as tight as I think they should be. What do you all use? is there anything we can use to tighten the grip within a plastic mount? like locktite for plastic. thanks for any input.

I installed mine with the plastic tabs as well and haven't had any issues whatsoever.

OK...I just the Finless video on servo installation. I did it about the same way...so I'm cool on the actual install. However, the grommets or servo nuts, did not come with my new servos....shouldn't an hs65-hb come with those nuts? where do you get them?

First I used the rubber grommet to secure the servos. That came loose so I used my spare servo arms, cut it up to fit and used it as a nut to secure the servos. Works well for me.
