Default Microheli aluminum main frame problems

Has anyone had any problems connecting the eflite S75 servos to the Microheli aluminum main frame. The servos mount using the screw holes on the top and bottom. Every time I go to mount the servos the cases break since the cases are brittle and to hard. Not immediately, but once I move the servos arms around and hook them up to the swash plate they start to crack. I am going to upgrade servos and would like to have a recommendation, any ideas? Any troubles with using alternate servos on a Blade CP pro?

I am starting to think that I should just leave the CP PRO alone and just buy a Trex 450 SE V2.

Yep, t9 is right, get a better heli. The cp can get into your wallet, but yet all these heli's can lol.

indeed - build a trex 450 sa, or if you like the blue alumibling, get a hdx450 from ushobbysupply - check out the hdx450 assy videos by finless for more info, great stuff

450 blades and everything are approx 3-4" longer than the cp's, and the tail rotor is belt drive so the tail handles better

Have you tried the HS55's by Hitec? They come with opposite rotation of the stock S75's but there is a mod to change servo direction by choppersrule on the Wiki post. Which is down currently......... hmmmm. Well, there is a post somewhere on the wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....blade CP thread on that but its a couple hundred pages. Seems it was in the 1rst 50 pages if i remember right. I see at servo city you can get them with CCW rotation for $10 more, same price as a servo reverse lead.
What does MH recommend for servos in thier frame? Ya have me curious now!
