So RPP selling REEFS rc servos, they are making a name for themselves , so I guess this is a good thing . Next big servo to be put in your rigs?
:


You see these servos in FB community's a lot. Well i do at least .
(Sorry didn't know where to put this)



EDIT... Forgot pic...

My only concern is that every one of their servos states "All titanium gears" - and this really means aluminum with a titanium coating.

Steel is best.

Not saying they'll fail, the surface hardness of aluminum is hardened when it is coated with titanium oxide, but still...

Relatively good prices, and the Triple4 model and to a lesser extent, the 422HD have fairly quick response times:

Triple4
Torque: 422oz @ 6.0V / 444oz @ 7.4V
Speed: .11sec @ 6.0V / .10sec @ 7.4V

422HD
Torque: 393oz @ 6.0V / 422oz @ 7.4V
Speed: .13sec @ 6.0V / .12sec @ 7.4V

The Triple5 is a little slow for the money, IMHO:

Triple5
Torque: 500oz @ 6.0V / 555oz @ 7.4V
Speed: .20sec @ 6.0V / .17sec @ 7.4V

Personally, if it was my money - the 422HD at $79.99 is the one I'd consider.

If I needed a stronger one I'd go for one of the competing servos such as ProModeler, or the HH HV500/SHV500, or the Savox 2290.

BTW - Reef's servos are all listed as coreless - there's an argument to be made that brushless is better than coreless for longevity, but some say at least coreless are somewhat more efficient.

Here's a ProModeler 470oz-in servo (at $99.99) numbers for comparison - Notice the speed:

I like how PM is the only company that actually lists stall current.

I wanted to like Reef, but I messaged 4-5 times using every different method I could find (Email, FB, IG etc..) and they completely ignored my RFI. I won't buy from them if they won't answer a simple question.

I like how PM is the only company that actually lists stall current.

I've got the full tech specs on PowerHD LF-20 and they include draw numbers. But you're right, in my mind that's an important number and it's rarely stated.

Spektrum does on their newer servos.
