Hi Everyone,
Great thread here. A question I have is when mounting a Futaba servo do I put a rubber gromit on both the top and the bottom of the servo with the brass inlet protruding from the bottom up?
Thank you
Yes, top AND bottom, grommet through the bottom hole.
The idea is to have the servo completely isolated from the airframe. Since the screw is directly fastened to the airframe, the servo must be isolated from that, too. Everything should be able to vibrate around the servo, and so you should be able to wiggle the servo once it's installed. Fasten the screw until you just start to see the rubber deform.
