I just bought a Futaba 3PM radio with S3305 servos.
I don't expect much, so I won't be let down when they suck or break.

124 oz/in (8.9 kg/cm) at 6V
99 oz/in (7.1 kg/cm) at 4.8V

Metal gear, BB, $38 @ Tower.

I bought the same radio but with S3003's are the front one was fine but I broke 2 sets of gears in the rear. I'm currently running Hitec 645MG's the work pretty good. Not spectacular but good.

that 3305 seems to be great, cheap, and pretty strong

So far the S3305 has held up. (Knocking on wood)

It can turn the wheels sitting still, but it struggles a little. (6 cell pack)
Maybe a dedicated battery would help.

Anyways, so far so good. (Now I'm crossing my fingers)
