Yeah, the towerpro servos are quite ttricky to mod. You have to midfy the case, as there's a stopper where the final gear comes out of the case. A stanley knife and some pliers did the trick though!

Dremel type tools with a grinding bit are excellent for that - you do need to wear a mask over your mouth though...lots of little fragments....

I'll stick to my faithful screwdriver and wire snippers. Never let me down yet. Except for that SD200 mod that failed on Franz...

I have just brought some lovely little servos. Blue Bird 380MAX.

Weight: 16.4g / 0.58oz
Size(mm): 26 x 13 x 26 mm
Size(inch): 1.16 x 0.51 x1.02 inch
Speed: 0.15sec / 60 deg at 4.8V
Torque: 4.1kg/cm , 57 oz/in at 4.8V
Ball bearing: Single
Gear type: Metal Gears

Haven't looked at 360 degree mod yet or speed mod. Think a speed mod would be unlikely though.

HPX F

Dimensions (mm): 16 x 30 x 28
Weight (grams): 19
Speed (sec): 0.07
Torque (Kg.cm): 3.00
Ball Raced: No

Slower than the HPX F which are easy to do a 360 mod and don't need speed modding.

The 380MAX's look to be a very nice weapns servo. Getting on for 5kg/cm at 6v
