Horizon Hobby - Spitfire 1.2m - DOA Rudder Servo Repair - Part 3

I realize this video has morphed back into a build video, and I'm sorry about the abrupt ending. My camera doesn't give me any indication that it's about to end, so I realize it's not filming when I go back around to stop it or pause it - SUPER FRUSTRATING! - but you got the idea. I heat shrined the red and black wires and said, thanks for watching, that's all that was missed. Definitely didn't warrant a fourth video.

Guys, I can't seem to catch a break! I got a DOA rudder servo on my new Spitfire! Luckily, Horizon Hobby is quite responsive to these type of issues. I spoke with the tech support guy and within about 2 minutes, he already had it shipping (well, the order to ship was in). I later figured out definitively that the rudder servo WAS bad...stripped gear ONE TOOTH gone!!! 

This video will show you my process of getting to the servo, evaluating it for damage, and then well wrap it up with repairing it too!
