Exactly! Yes, the two on the left are the ones that went bad. The one on the right, labelled "TIANKONGRC", seems to be much better. [/IMG] It would not fit the keyhole slot, so I had to use a small rat tail file and relieve it a bit. But works fine. I'll be sure and post some negative...

Well the issue was not the damper plate or how tight the screw was. When I took the servo out of the case it still would stick every other time at about 25 - 30 percent. I replaced it with a different brand of servo that seems much, much smoother and also has not stuck once so far. Been outside...

After a bit more searching I did find temperature specs on HobbyKing.com for similar servos listed as 0-55 Celsius - so theoretically the servos can take that heat. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigytm-mg90s-ds-mg-servo-1-8kg-0-10sec-18g.html...

RD3 still sticking Ralph and Bryan - thank you both for the responses. So I trimmed the servo and fan wires as short as practical, stripped the ends and re-tinned them. Then punched them down properly in the RJ45 jack, I inspected the rotating and static parts of the damper. It looked like...

My first two burns with the RD3 were great. But the last burn, not a long one just grilling some corn and dogs, I noticed it was running hotter than it should. When I shutdown I noticed the RD3 was stuck open. I hooked it back up in side but could not get it to respond. When I took it apart the...

Thanks everyone for chiming in - I think I'm set now. Looks like the PCB is the slowest thing to ship - it's being made today but will not be back in until June 28th. Getting it built for brisket on the 4th will be tight.

Never mind - it was my eyes, I was looking at the order lead time, not the quantity on hand (11,000+). However now it seems the thermocouple socket is not in stock at Newark, the alternative they list has a minimum quantity of 100. Any suggestions on where to look? Thank you much - Richard

If my eyes are working right the part in your link shows an 18 week back order - was that a typo? Thanks - Richard

I need to build or get an RDTC board. After my first long burn (20 hours for a large pork butt) it's clear the HeaterMeter (at least the case) cannot take the Arizona heat. Event though I had an big beach umbrella covering the grill area, it started to warp - and it's not even July or August...
