Ok,


So I was tuning my MT today and my Throttle/Brake servo started to act funny.. It was twitching, and basically flipping out.. After it stopped spazzing out I saw smoke. Ok, so I took it apart and one of the Mosfet/capacitors was bubbled. I was not sure if it was warrantied, but really did not care as it was a slow servo in todays standards and needed upgrade.


So I bought this at my local A-Main

This servo is FAST and powerful! Do any of you guys use this brand? It seems decent. Im glad I upgraded.

It has good specs. Let us know how it holds up.
Will do buddy. It is nice aluminum construction wth metal, not brass gears. It was alot quicker and had more torque @ 6v then the 100$ version from another name brand I was checking out.
 
So how did these servos work out for you? I need to upgrade mine soon and am keeping my eyes open.
