Digital servo help...

[Drift king]

I'm looking for digital servos to replace old analogue ones that won't work with my controller.. Now I know hitec are probly the best but I'm only a carpark basher so bit looking at something on the budget side but still do the job, anyone got experience of these ones??? Xq s5040d.....

No more than £60 for a 20kg savox (1256) from most places, they are then nuts!

i agree with mike you cant beat savox i run the 16.5kg ones and there more than upto the job and half the price of the 1256 so 2 for the price of one

I've got 5 Savox 1256TG's on various RC's of mine.
'Bob On' as some people say.
No touching wood now, as some are several years old - NOT ONE PROBLEM!

The ones I listed are £40 delivered or best offer... If I get two probly cheaper.. Could be nothing but problems with them though that's why I posted them here.. Will have a look at the savox ones mention above... Cheers

Are the savox 1256 a direct fit to standard size radio trays or do they need an adapter plate?

Thanks

This one the right size? Says for 1/8 scale?

Mate, check at the bottom.
It gives you the dimensions.

Good price.

Great price but it's from HK so could be a cheap copy

I took the tape measure to work last week so got nothing to measure it with just now... Il check the sizes tomoro when I get home

Cheers

Not sure on Ian's comments, but could be true.
Basically I've found that servo to be 100% standard dimension, but worth checking.
