For that price go for a Hilantronics. They are legit servos.

Bit more money but these are great. Agfrc makes reefs servos. https://amp.agf-rc.com/78kg-hv-0082...ss-waterproof-15-servo-a280bhmw-p3426882.html
Super fast!

That’s a great servo from what I’ve researched. Never owned one. Here is specs on it.

Yes I ran one this fall. Excellent servo, powerful and fast plus I only ran it on NIMH batteries. @misterleon recommended it to me as he runs them too.
It will suffice in anything except maybe a Raminator

one thing i also love about hilantronics servos is, the led indicator. It tells you if your battery voltage is low.

That servo shows the speed @.22 for 7.4v. Will that be on the slow side? I'm used to 1/8 where you want .15 or faster.

Shear torq is what you want. Especially with the vekta. Its very heavy. You talk about 1/8 scale and speed. Thats for racing conditions. You planning on racing or bashing the Vekta?

I'll take your word for it. I definitely won't be racing. I am assuming it would be a good servo for throttle/brake too?

I used the kraken servo for the throttle-brake.

A safe rule of thumb is rtr servos go in the garbage. They are built to a price point.

Vekta .5 is very nose heavy so yea you want a torque servo.

The AFGRC servos are the poop I got two of them and I also got two of the hiltronics and the hiltronics broke but the afgrc servos are still going strong they are brushless unlike the Hiltronics ones and if you can get the 100KG afgrc ones you have to run them with a 4 s battery pack and you have to get a voltage regulator which adds to the cost but the servos are the same price whether you get the 100kg ones or the 78kg ones of course with a 4s battery you don't have to worry about charging the battery as often
