Arthyyyyyyy Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 I did intend on two Savox 1256's, one for steering duties and one for the braking but monies tight atm and I really want to get this project finished. I have a new Hitec HS-7955TG sitting in my parts box which I can use for steering and the HS-645MG which as mentioned I thought maybe I could use for the braking and get this project completed, finally!! I do have another Hitec servo in the shed but can't remember what it is until I look in the morning, I think it's an HS-625MG? It has less torque than the 645 but is fractionally faster. I don't know, I think I might just drop the 645 in there for now to get this finished and when funds allow get a couple of 1256's or a 1256 for steering and a 1258 fior the brakes?? 1256 for steering, 1258 throttle. Nuff said lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie.no1 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I think this is the D*8 I bid on off of ebay? I was gonna turn it brushless. You are correct this is the one from ebay I was thinking about going brushless......but it is cheaper for me to replace a few bits and keep it nitro.
