cheap meaning not worth a crap??? I can sell you one for 5 bucks...will glitch like a mutha...perfect for what you want... Ohh you mean one that will last you a long time?? Hitec is a good start. Heres a good one to start with...soon there might be more to follow...unless they all think you should do some searching.... http://www.shop.rpphobby.com/product...&categoryId=-1 Last edited by squatch71; 09-20-2009 at 03:18 PM. Reason: added the link.....I did some searching.... |

when i say cheap thats the lowest price i have to spend to get the servo i want like a said i just burned up a hitec that was $99 bucks so dont tell me that high price servos are the best if that was the case the one i had would still be working i want one that is cheap but will work well with the wt that i have in the wheels

| servo on the cheap In case nobody else has said, Towerpro MG995 servo is very inexpensive, will get the job you want done. It has 208 oz torque, for less than $20. Check out hobbyparts.com Hope this helps. |

| I wonder if this plastic case will hold? Anybody had tried this? Not bad for 2 servos for 17 bucks.

They are closer to the MG946R, but still not exactly the same. | |

I'm using a Crawford servo in my SCX10 running 2.2 DNA wheels and a Handbros steering kit. Went crawling around today and thought for sure that I would smoke the servo a couple of times but it held up great.

| are these servos digital or analog? seems like they'd be good for running in a cc01/scx10/random 1.9 scaler.

| I would stay away from them. i have tried them two different times. all four lasted from 30min to one month tops. the gears go quick and in no time they start to twitch since it cant stay centered once the gears start to wear. you are better off with a lower powered Hitec645. it will last much much longer and the power diff is almost unseen, i don't know how they tested that other to 200oz. the hitec seams stronger in the hold.
