Hope that helps.

Diagnosis confirmed. Thanks Chris. It's the servo. I'm surprised though. The servos are not original plastic gear type. I upgraded to metal gear servos after the boom function stripped a gear and there's not that much run time on them...
I still have one original servo that works and have installed in the mean time

Cheers, Neil.
Maybe run a shaker table or screening plant the way it is right now. Lol
Seeing as I'm just starting out in this hobby, I need to build up my various odds n ends parts inventory.Once I take it apart and see what's up, I'm sure I'll find a use for it. Maybe windshield wipers!
