A lot of servos are glued into place in foam planes. Its quick, easy and simple to do. However it can be a real pain to remove them should they fail for what ever reason.
You may find this little tip a help.
Before you install the new servo, install a short length of heat shrink tube over the case of the servo and shrink it into place. Now when you glue the servo into the wing or where ever, you are actually gluing to the heat shrink and not the servo case. The next time you need to remove the servo, simply cut through the heat shrink and the servo will just come straight out.
Now it will be easier to clean the area where the servo has to fit and also the servo won't be covered in glue.
I hope this helps
