I just ordered a

Standard WR-7701 Waterproof "Mega Torque" High Voltage Brushless Servo

From amain because they had 10% off for Easter.

In order to change that voltage you need to install a BEC. Get a CC BEC.

Just installing the CC BEC will not allow you to get the full advantage of this servo or any HV servo without this Castle Creations Castle Link Programming Kit to change the voltage.

I never thought i would write this but 1st use this:
How to use the Search button

Then read this Yes, you need an external BEC!

I went with a ProTek 170T. 630oz of torque at 7.4v. Turns those big tires with ease. Drops right in, no mods needed.
