Default Steering Servo

I am running a Savox 1283SG steering servo at 6.0V with a 10amp BEC. It is should have about 416oz of torque, but it still seems really week out on the rocks. Do they make a stronger steering servo? Please let me know what to get and how many oz of torque it puts out. FYI... I have a MOA rock crawler if that makes a difference.

Thanks
Dynamite

HiTec 7950. At 6v it is 403 oz. and at 7.2 it is 483oz. Or you could go the HiTec 7980 with 500 @6v or 600 @7v.

The savox never seem to have the torque they claim. 7950 and 7980be are 2top of the line servos.

A HiTec 7950 on a Castle 10A BEC is great.

The HiTec 7980 is a "giant size" servo and is harder to fit on some rigs as well as likely needing some mods on the servo mount.
