945 vs 5945
 

I cant make up my mind on which one to get , I'am getting a pair of them of which one I end up choosing. It be going on a maxx based truck. I'am kinda weary of the digital servos I have/had some 1/4 scale digital and didnt really work for me and read about some the different hitech digital servos frying and jason made pretty good point about the digitals, how the motor is working so hard to keep in postion that they overheat and fry. I kinda leaning for the 945's but like the power of the 5945's have..... I do plan on running a rx pack for either servos and I have sr. I dont want to spend the money right now on the high end hitech 59 series.

specs

I've burned up three 5945mg servos in my TXT, in a short time too. I was even running servo savers, but the digitals do get hot trying to hold center.

I've had great luck with the 945mgs, I had one in a Maxx truck for about 4 years with no problems. I'm running one now in my TXT without any issues too.

thanks bender, this kinda crap i hear about digitals and try and stay away from them... looks like iam ordering the 945's

I never had any problems with my digitals.

x2.

I went head ended up ordering the 945's, Is there a alum servo horn for 945's if there is it worth getting or not really ? Bender have you strip out the gears ? Just asking to see if i need to stock on gear sets once they there off back-order :roll:

I've never stripped a gear in any 945 servo, the gears are alot beefier then the 645. I just run one of the plastic servo horns that came with the 945.

I kinda figured that the alum horn would be bling... thanks bender

I used the AL ones. They actually work well. Not as blingy as you think.

x2 :mrgreen:

X3 :lol:

On a serious note I just ordered two 945, and one 5945 so I will see which I like the best, I have a digital JR servo right now and I havent had any problems with it.

If you are going to f with someones quote at least spell the word right.

let me know how the 5945 works out for ya....later on I may give one a try on the front.

I dont like the damn beep beeep beeeeeeeep sound of my digital I wanna chuck the SOB every time i hear it , Its just one of those noises...

Nothing neg about its performance though
