Do you use metal servo horns on them? First I stripped the gears in the servo and now I've stripped the plastic horns. Maybe I souldn't expect it to lift so much...

On the rubber tracked loaders I use the thick plastic arms and on the lift system on my Mack I use the plastic horn as well.

What is really nice about the programmable digital hitech servos is you can set an overload cutoff on them. So, you set the servo to go to half power when it pulls too much current and then as soon as the load is gone it goes right back to full power.
