Too expensive. Those are Tower pro servos without the TP badge it looks like. Try here http://www.jpcustomrcs.atomicshops.c...75/5381533.htm

I don't know, the kg/cm has always baffled me too. Somewhere around 180ounce/inch for 13kg/cm I think. Maybe a bit more.

ok, so it should suffice for moderate crawling conditions. Remeber that im not hardcore...not yet.... just you wait..:P

i first have to boost the 4 door, pay the IRS and then i can be a hardcore as fack.

::not really, im a poser::

I actually have pretty good luck with the ones jrh mentioned, im not into the hardcore crawling yet either and these work out pretty good especially for the price.

Same here, great luck for the price. Powerful enough for everything but hard comp running.
