sorry I need to clarify...

umm.. Before I soldered anything and did my first full range test run yesterday. My servo motor kicked the bucket after the batteries died out. I thought it was because of the batteries, but when I charged them up again to test out the reason for the servo locking....it didn't do anything. No start up glitch, no movement nothing.
So I looked at the box I purchased it in and it said Futaba Hitec HS-55 (JR, RCD). I didn't switch around the wires or anything because I thought it was the servo I ordered correctly. I wasn't.

SO I am going for another servo, hopefully this time the right one.

Its totally shot.

I also thought maybe it was the heat. Remember it was 95 degrees yesterday and probably about 125 on the tennis court surface. I dunno.

On another topic, it appears I am the only one in my area that has a DTM also (NY), I check with the track owner I go to, and he said only one man he knows of owns one of these...and he is in NH. Its all good though because I feel priveledged that I have something not everyone has.(a.ka. mini z)
