This component is an RC-scale replacement for the first gear inside the Futaba servo gearbox referenced in the model list. Use it when teeth are worn or stripped, or during a full gearbox overhaul to restore dependable mechanical engagement in the gear stack.
Confirmed compatibility covers the S3009, S3010, S3014, S3050, S3070, S3072, S3152 and S3305 models as stated in the product name. Verify the servo model before ordering; the item is supplied without retail packaging and is intended as a direct internal gear swap.
Installation guidance: always remove power and disconnect controls first, take off the servo horn and unscrew the case, track gear orientation as you disassemble, carefully lift the gear train and replace the first gear only, then reassemble while checking gear mesh and axial play. Use minimal, appropriate grease on gear faces and avoid contaminating the electronics.
Durability note: fitting a new first gear removes worn contact surfaces that can cause uneven wear further down the train, helping the servo last longer and keeping positional error under control. After fitting, verify centering and endpoints under normal load.
