Question What servo are you running on your MRC?

Please tell us what servo you are running on your MRC.
Also tell us if you had a servo that was a problem and you feel should be avoided.
Please note any special things you needed to do to make it work if necessary. (i.e. servo mount, horn, BEC, etc...)

I use a Hitec 985, I just took a TLT servo mount and drill holes to make it fit the Losi axle.

Hobbico CS-170 with a CC BEC wired directly to the servo.. More torque than you need in a mini...

Hitec 6985HB and I use an Axial servo mount and just drilled it for MRC axle, simple job. Do find it needs a BEC I have a CC (seems to be the BEC of choice on here).

My stock Losi servo never worked properly right out of the box, So i replaced it with an AS-2 out of a Axial scorpion. To mount it i bought a bag of servo mounts that went to an AE SC8 and used a piece of aluminum as a mounting plate. Drilled some holes bought some new screws at the hardware store and it mounted great. I am also using the servo with the stock electronics and havent had any issues.

HS-225MG Make your servo arm as short as possible for max torque output.

I'm running a TS-150, which really stresses the screw going through the drag link and the servo link.
