I tired to mount mine as close as I could to the Rx and servo to eliminate long wires. It doesn't have to be on top of the servo. Try it out and see what location works best for you. I noticed the Esky gyro have a nice price on them now.

Edit: The gyro can work to counter steer or to keep the vehicle heading in the direction you want. If you want to stop loosing control you will want the gyro to counter steer to correct your vehicle. You can see the other affect in the drifting cars from HPI using the dbox. It wll actually make you look like a professional drifter by allowing the car to keep it's drift until you want to go the other way.
