| I used to like TS-150s...
I had two Tower Hobby TS-150 servos on my Axial for about a year. A couple of weeks ago I made some modifications to my suspension setup and added some weight in the front, about the same time the only plastic gear in the servos got chewed up. At first I thought it was just due to age, but got suspicious when I moved my seconded TS-150 from my dig to my steering and it died the same way in short order. Hoping their failure was just due to age I ordered two new ones. The one I used for steering died on the last course of today's comp (the only course I was doing well in), one gate away from the finish with about 1/2 of a pack ran through it (2/3 C, 7-cell)... :-(. So, I think the TS-150 is still a great dig servo, but it just isn't good for a steering sevro when you are running more than 12oz of weight per tire. I think I'll go with the Hitec HS7955TG, sure it is almost three times as much, but if it lasts it is worth it. |

FYI, the 7950th is currently the same price as the 7955 at servocity. It is quite a bit better, so I suggest you get that instead. (but you don't have to :P, more for me)
