      Always use then just to give the servo a bit of movement
      they come with the servos for a reason

        The grommets and bushes have been supplied with servos for years but times and tech change and I see no advantage on a modern electric helicopter in fact the more rigid and slop free the better especially for 3 D flight. I can see some advantage with engine vibration on nitros but don't think they are a necessity these days

          I installed them on my aligns as they came in the kit!

          when I built the goblin I asked the q, and most said don't use them and just clamp the servo down on the bolts. I pushed the servos down and back to seat them against the carbon, then nipped them up!

              The futaba S3003 is a full size servo.

              Aren't these rubber grommets?
