Maybe you could convert the servo, to continuous rotation,
For another project.
Cheers, Neil.

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

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!
