Scored a Rampage MT (ID'd by the group) servo was seized and because I have more time than money, I opened it up to see what was wrong. Turned out the motor armature had wallered out the bottom of the plastic casing and putting voltage to it it would not spin. Opened up my random drawer and right there was a motor with the same physical dimensions. Much heavier casing and steel end cap. (from a printer?) I'll make a precision pinion puller to make the swap and see what happens. Nothing to lose.
I don't know how these are worth so much. There may be more materials but the precision to assemble a micro servo is much more demanding. Volume I guess...
