Everyone,
I was sent this info re Trio All Gold servos, by a friend yesterday, that may apply to some of you
Regards

Quote:

Trio Avionics has issued a service bulletin on the Gold Standard servo. Please see http://www.trioavionics.com/Field_Change.htm
Note this sentence - If you find that the pin protrudes more than 1/16 inch out of the hub, notify the factory of the servo serial number and return the servo for service –
The ‘pin’ referred to is the existing one going through the shaft & collar on the other side of the hub/crank-arm. Please contact them on +1 619 448 4619

The Service Bulletin applies to ALL ‘GOLD’ servos i.e. Elevator & Aileron. There is an existing hole in the servo shaft that you will need to put the split pin in.  Shaft is approx. 8mm in diameter (washer) and hole for split pin is 3mm.

Just to be clear, Trio is recommending you put a washer and cotter pin (hole already exists) onto the end of the servo shaft, so that should the arm come loose it won't fall off its shaft, land somewhere and possibly jam.

Even though it wasn't in the instructions, I though this was so obvious that I did it during initial installation.
