You should really search, but I'll help you out. What size wheels/tires are you planning on using?

You should deffenitly run about 130 oz of torque. Or you could go overkill and get a 1/4 scale HS 805bb servo. These servos are MASSIVE and get over 300 oz of torque!! Krystopher | |

Go with a 645MG or the TowerPro one... The one I think ppl are calling the Chicken Butt... The TowerPro one has some high torque for low $$... Ppl seem to like 'em a lot, too...

DoubleJ is selling the Chicken Butt 995 servo's which are just the tower pro 995's remaned for sale on this site. Look in the vendor section and you'll see him there. also run2jeepn is selling the towerpro 995 servo's. These are the all metal high torque servos that most guys are runnin'. I believe they are digital and have heard that many ppl are running them with the 4WS modded TQ3's, I have also heard that they won't work with some TQ3's for some reason, Search 955 servo and you'll find for info. Hope this helps, -BIGMAXX- |

80 oz. isn't NEAR enough. 130 oz. barely works for 2.2's. There is no such thing as overkill when it comes to servo power for your steering. IMHO,a crawler NEEDS a minimum of 200 oz. servos,period. Control is the biggest part of crawling. How can you control your truck if you can't turn?  I run Airtronics 359's on mine now and they do well. They put out 200 oz. I'll run the same servo on my 2.2 build as well. In all honesty,if there was an 800 oz. servo out there,I'd run it with no question. |
