Upgrade servo on Redcat S10

[Joedad]

Anyone know of a stronger upgrade to the Hexfly 15kg servo? I put on bigger tires and blew a servo.

there are many, I is a question of how much you want to spend
towerpro has a 20 kg for about 30 and it goes up from there

Do you know what Towerpro fits the housing?

[cabron]

redcat is a standard size servo as is the towerpro
I have been using the 946 which is 12 kg of torque for a number of years and only broke
2 of them. I am using 12 of them at the moment and have a couple of spare.
the case top does not use a bushing and the hole the gear shaft rides in wallows out
but I think it happens when I turn the servo arm by hand. this puts the shaft in a slight bind.

there is a new one out, the mg968 for about 27.00 that has 25 kg of torque, the mg946 is about 11.00
at hobbyking

beware the number of teeth in the spline. redcat and the mg946 have 25 teeth, the mg968 has 24
