The Hobbico cs-80 is a 1/4 scale, the other looks like a standard size. I've got two cs-80's for sale pm if interested.

I run a TS-80 in a Mad Force, if you have the room these are great steering servos. I use a reciever pack and the six volts really make a diff.!

343 oz/in !!!

Yes they are!


Length: 2.59" (66mm) Width: 1.18" (30mm) Height: 1.26" (57.6mm)

There also 10 bucks more than these:

Virtually identical specs, the pics even look the exact same.

(I run the CS-80's and like 'em)

Mines in my Mad Force, it in the same place as stock, its just so freakin big the gas tank got moved to the rear (it wheelies at damn near any speed now) I moved the stock crossmembers apart to fit it and added the reciever pack next to it. It being gas I had to run a rec. pack. On my TXT with the hightec I run the rec pack to get the most power and speed from the servo and with it (the battery pack) mounted up front the extra weight is sure to help too.
BTW the Mad Force sucks at crawlin! Electric is the ONLY way to go, I guess the axles will go in an electric crwaler project, and the engine and 3-speed tranny will go is something...whatever, it'll be fast

forgot about the harness :( You don't HAVE to (the box has the diagram on it ) but it does help, although those things are so damn strong you can get by without the extra power.
