servo questions...

[Mr.Slave]

im thinking bout getting either
JR Z9100T

or
Hitec HS-7955TG

will these decrease my runtime by any noticeable amounts?

any one with any substitutions?

[tedmales]

I would stay away from the Hitec, I have been through 2 of the 7955tg and they do not have the power to run my berg. They stall. I replaced them with this and no more problems.

[Mr.Slave]

i would think anythings better than the 80oz i have right now... but that servo does look sweet.
thanks.

did you notice any dips in your run time?

You should not notice any decrease in run time from the HiTec 7995.

Get the Hitec 7955.
You will NOT regret it.
The titanium gears hold up VERY well.
When my car is on it's side, the servo can move my car... =)

Hitec also has a TWO year warranty on that servo and will probably replace/fix it after the warranty expires.

Odd, I've run my 7955s for several years, never had an issue. I also run one in my Berg w/o issue.

i'm not going to badmouth hitec servos since i don't have any experience with them, but i've run jr servos for a bit and have never had a problem with them. they have a three year warranty, for what that's worth. i think my next servo is probably going to be the 7955, but you wouldn't be making a mistake with either the jr 8711 or z9100t.

a main hobbies, on the other hand... not my favorite shop.
