Need some help
 
I guys!
I'm finishing a Wraith Kit and I'm doing some testing and I need some help.
I have installed Axial's Wheel Wheights and now each wheel wheighs 800gr. Is that to much?
Also I need a new servo and a BEC. What's you're advice on the BEC and the servo? I would like a 25T servo, because I already have a 25T aliminum servo horn.
AND MY BUDGET ISN'T VERY HIGH!!! But it's not very low either!!
Thanks for you're help
Ps: I'm building the Wraith for crawling!!

Most run the Castle 10amp BEC and Hitec servos 300 oz-in in torque and higher, but Hitec servos are usually 24 spline (standard C1). Some are now H25T 25 spline (standard F3 Futaba), you'll just have to check the specs on the servo that fits your budget.

savox servos are 25t. and they make some high torque ones that arent very expensive.

I run the Savox SA-1230SG which is 25t and Castle BEC. I use my rig for crawling and this servo has held up great since I installed it. It's not waterproof, but I waterproofed mine. However it's not the cheapest servo, I ended up about 130 for the servo/BEC/programming cable

That combo served me well for a long time too, until I started cracking the case.


1230-SG $59.99

Same setup I have, and I run 8oz wheel weights up front in each wheel and 4oz out back. Rock crawler only and climbs like a goat. That servo puts out 500 oz-in @ 6.0 volts, and its under 60.00 on ebay. Best bang for the buck I think.

Most Hitec servo's come with a alum. arm already and are arguably better then the clamping type if that is what you have.

I'm running 7950 and CC 10amp bec with no complaints

For what do I need the programming cable?

The BEC is programmable, you can change settings in the BEC.

You have to program the bec to the same voltage as your servo
