martin34 Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 Is that for a single servo set up?On a US forum everyone suggests a Solar 772.They are only $9:99 so I thought great .Checked the postage and its $43!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andythecrane Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I will check out solar as well.Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin34 Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Yes the Solar looks very good but theres no way I am paying $43 shipping for a $9 servo.Its a pity there isn't any on ebay.The one linked to above?Is that a straight drop in?I wouldn't need a BEC?

Andythecrane Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 2 x trx 2075 servos add up to 12 kilos of steering torque by my reckoning. So a single servo that is over 12k of torque should be ok?Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpibaja5bss Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 i would say gte two power hd 1501 mgs or two altrun 750mg that means in total you will have more than 30kg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andythecrane Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 The battery pack in the Revo ( pronounced Ree-Voh. ) would drain very quickly with those servos fitted. ANDY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkfat78 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Never had any problems with Power HD servos myself, but I'm still running the two stock servos on my E-Revo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Doktor Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__18860__Hobbyking_S4020D_Coreless_Digital_Titanium_Gear_Servo_HV_56g_0_13s_21_8kg.html I have the same servo in my savage and it is pure junk... It is so sloppy it is almost unusable. I would not buy it again. Yes, it is strong and pretty fast, but gears are made of cheese, not " titanium alloy" as advertised.

Andythecrane Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I have my eye on this for my steering servo? http://www.modelsport.co.uk/alturn-usa-high-performance-race-servo-ultra-high-torque-/rc-car-products/371394 ANDY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCbutcher Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I have the same servo in my savage and it is pure junk... It is so sloppy it is almost unusable. I would not buy it again. Yes, it is strong and pretty fast, but gears are made of cheese, not " titanium alloy" as advertised. Im using one in my revo and couldnt be happier ive read alot about them and pre 2012 did have issues did you get yours in a plastic box with horns included or a grip seal? Ide happily buy more of them. But there are tons of factors to a servos lifespan. I know they say ther tg gears but in the market I think they can say that if just 0.01% titanium when into the metal mix lol. My savox 1256tg feels more sloppy from the box and has considerable less stall torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Doktor Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 mine came packed in a transparent plastic box with horns included. I bought it in May 2012 and the sloppiness developed after few months of occasional running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
