Good option. If you don't want those,I'd recommend the 359's

I have read some good, some bad regarding them. Alot of it is you get what you pay for type things. Most here have recommended Hitec 645mg servos. There are many of them out there working well in this application, so I stuck with them.

Those are the same as the chickenbutt servos, with a different sticker.

Have you asked EVERY person on the board?

Most will tell you that 645's will strip out if you look at them wrong. Some have good luck with them in a TLT rig running 4" tires or 1.9's running 3" tires. Never the less,they are a far cry from a strong servo.

I had one 645 it stripped the first time I test my rig.

Then dezfan sent me to the tower pro's and I've had a total of 10 used. Haven't had a problem yet.

These are why I now sell them.
