    I got bored changing gear sets every ding.. the Metal gear upgrade has more than paid for itself.

    so i'm asuming the DS510M metal gear servo upgrade set fits the Align DS510 servos?
    2 of mine seem to not centre probably after a ding on the deck,arms moved about 30 degrees

    The 510 mg's fit no problem... Just make sure you clean out any bits left from the the stripped nylon gears- It only takes a tiny bit to stall the servo.
