Hi all!

During my pre-flight I noticed the ailerons were jammed. I trouble-shooted the system and found the Dynon servo to be locked.

I removed the servo and it won't move. I did not force it past the amount needed for the shear pin.

Thoughts?

Flaude,
We've seen this once or twice before. Every time we've seen it, the issue has been water getting into the servo and rusting the motor until it seizes.

Here is a thread on a previous occurrence:

Contact our support team directly and we can get you an RMA, so we can investigate here.
