Here ya go...you may need to use a slightly longer servo mount screw also....what I meant about butting up the plastic against the servo tab. Since you have a broken off ear you may need to place a plastic piece on the other side also
then fill in the gap with JB wield where the tab is missing....after it dries and sets up, drill your screw hole where the screw
Will fit through...image.jpg

It should hold ya till you get a better servo, I had this one on a heli for a while till I finally got a different servo for it.
This particular servo had known tab break issues with it.
I don't particularly care to rig stuff like that, but sometimes a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do to keep playing with
his toys....:)

Just the main shaft alone can make a world of difference. There can be a super slight bend and you wouldn't even know. The vibs from that alone can cause many issues in you fbl unit. Good find though.

Those shafts can be tricky for sure!
