i have done plenty of research on this and almost every time i research what is the best servo or what is the best waterproof servo i get varying results and so far have worked my way through around $300-400 in servos
last one to bite the dust was a hitec 7954 which lasted 1 battery pack, (i know its not waterproof), i accidently went into a river where i thought it was shallow and it sunk completely for around 5 seconds and instantly pulled it out, before i could disconnect the battery, steering turned hard right and out came some smoke from the back of it.
game over within 10 seconds of touching water
ive got a savox sw1210sg in my wraith which is slower and more torque than the sw1211sg in my scx however with the 2.2s on it and different knuckles etc it ends up feeling quite under powered compared to the less torque and faster servo on my scx
so basically im not sure what to buy next, i dont have to have a waterproof servo, however i do like having waterproof for peace of mind if i feel like smashing through puddles and water
my bomber is for crawling and trailing and if i feel like it i run it in mud and water
this 7954 had o rings on front and back casing, and the 4 bolts however they obviously did nothing
