The Hitec 645MG is usually a pretty bullet proof servo. How old was it? Approx # of flight? Involved in any hard knocks? It's also possible that you got a bad one. There is always a human link in assembly somewhere.......and that opens the possibility for failures. I would say try another.....chances are you won't have any problems with them.

FYI....I've been flying the 5645 in my 33% Yak......I believe it is the same geartrain as the 645MG....just digital controls. They have held up good so far. Also have mnay other Hitec's in all my planes......and have never had a problem that wasn't induced by the user "Me". That being wrecks....a control surface that took a hard wack, or a multitude of other things.
