HiTEC HS-900SGS

Any one running one of these in their 5ive T? How do they hold up? I know Hitec has the HS-1000 out now, but not much info on the HS-900 out there.

It was the first batch and they sold all they had and it was replaced by the 1000 so unless you got one of the first one you won't see any more of them
They had a problem to and when or if they broke they were replaced by hitec with the 1000 something about easer to replace than to fix it

Do you know what problem they had? I have a chance to pick one up or under 200.00. I'm also looking at these:

for maybe a dual setup.

It was a shaft in the servo that needed a pin to hold it in place
The hitec is the way to go
The duals suck compared to the big single
The spectrum servos have been on hold for three years
But I did see them at powerjam this summer they broke
I'd call Hitec and talk to them about the 900 they may fix it or replace it with a 1000

Cool,
Thanks for the info!
