I take it you got the ultimate box?

First step will be filling the cavity with copper tape.
Copper tape gets rid of any 60 cycle hum which is a very annoying
hum you get until you touch the strings. The copper tape eliminates that.
I'll also solder a ground wire to the copper tape and then solder the other end
to the hardware.

Yes.
And I am happy with what they put in that box.
I did not have a plan to install a winch servo in any of the trail/crawlers in the garage, but it’s a fun capability to add to one of them.

My honest feedback on the bag of reefs is positive. The servos included paid for the faithful leap of confidence Reefs would pull through with a quality offering. The other items are a supporting cast of products like servo post mounts and a horn.
Servo tape, gear grease, fancy servo washers and SWAG complete the box.

I ordered the pro box, haven’t got it yet though.

I am interested to learn what’s in that box.

Figure a great servo, right? And?

Hope so

I was looking to grab a servo from them for the optic kit on the way and saw that deal and said what the hell, for the extra $10 over the raw 500 I was gonna grab I went with the box.

I’ll post it up when I get it

His sacrifice will allow my model trains to make their delivery on time

I haven't done it yet...but really, really, really tempted to go ahead and get myself a "holiday" present tomorrow. Especially since the forecast calls for a lot of wind this holiday weekend, so no flying the new jet...it's available at my local store...the struggle is real...
