what servos do you guys all recomend?? im thinking bout doin hitec servos for brake n throttle, but as for the steering hitec?? rhino??? with the fgs if i go rhino do i have to modify anything ??

If you are on a budget the Hitech 805 will work for steering and a 5645 or more for throttle and brakes. For a bit more $$ you can use a 5745 for steering or Rhino.

the rhino is pricey but is it worth it compared to the hitec servos

I've always preferred the Hitechs eventhough the 2 companies are together now.

Make sure you set your end point's,or you will burn it up.

i have 6 hitechs(varous size/models) and one rihno. my rihno is pretty old and abused. still out performs all others. go with the rihno if you can.

5745mg hitecs for steering. Great customer service.

JRDS8711, Z9100t or older Z9000T's for throttle break. They have great power for breaks and a 3 year warranty.

ive always had great results with Multiplex Servos.

my bergs used Jumbos. great servos, never a turning problem with the onroad. been using HiTs 5745s in the baja (and stockers with mgs) and i ve never been Satisfied with the steering except when the stock servo was new.

So im currently converting over to Rhinos for the Bajas, got one, and will need to buy a 2nd. waiting to install it until i get an aftermarket servo mount adapter for the Rhino, should really help tighten up the steering slop in the baja.

Since mine is electric, I use just a Hitech 605 for my braking servo.. I use the Hitech 805 for steering and it has lots of power to turn it.. But maybe soon as I get into more serious racing, I may upgrade to a faster turning servo. I know it's makes a big difference when using a good quality servo... Ever since I spent $600 on 4 servos for my smaller scale stuff, I'm stuck on "You get what you pay for" saying.. Well, for servos anyways...
