Ok fellas. I'm hoping you all, or at least some of you can educate me. I've got a new to me MT. Got it off of ebay for a song, so the wife would be happy about the price paid. Planning on doing several upgrades, to include the servos.


There's a ton of posts on here about which servos to use. I've read a bunch of them. What I'm curious about is just how much torque do you need for the steering and throttle servos. I figure it this way. So long as it fits, the more torque the servo can deliver, the better. Right?


I looked for specs on the stock servos, as far as torque specs and couldn't find anything.
 
This one is enough. :D

I'm think'n about throw'n one in the MT

I' remember thinking that..... Till I priced it!

That's a bit over the top when your feeding two MTs. :)

Plus it's out of stock at DDM :(

Well I received two HiTec 805BB for steering units and one Hitec 645MG for throttle. Now if the truck would just get here! :p
I know the feeling, but the worst is you get home only to find ups sticker stating you missed the shipment. But me being me I drive around until I find the driver. LOL

HaHa... I got a great method. I gave my UPS guy a case of beer once, and I never miss a package!
 
Huh. I don't think I've ever had the same person more than once. I've even had two packages come the same day at different times on different trucks.
