Hi, welcome to RCM.

There is usually a small piece of fuel tubing that is placed inside the drive cups. This helps the dogbone stay in place. After your upright broke they probably fell out and are close by the first missing dog bone. If you only knew where that was, huh? It doesn't take a lot of it to keep the dogbone in place. You can cut some off and see how close the dogbones end comes to coming out when you push the arm all the up and all the way down to it full extention.

Most stock servo that come in rtr are just enough to get the manufacture by. They can barely turn the turns when it is standing still but will get the job done while it is moving. It is one of the most common first upgrades people make to their RTR.

What servo do you have installed in there now? Is this a brushless conversion or are you running the nitro on it? If it's nitro are your using a 6v hump pack or a 4 AA batteries. What batteries are you using rechargable?
