Buying a 1/10 Losi buggy- what servo?

[Cheetah928]

Hey guys, I wanted to know what servo i should get for my new buggy. Don’t exactly know what model, but it’s a 1/10 Losi. I am gonna run a 6.0v receiver, and want to know a good servo for under 35-40. I accept not well known brands. I run a servo from feeltech on my slash which was 20 dollars for a 20 kg servo. Works awesome. Amazon and other links are awesome! Thanks!

Any standard size servo, or low profile servo can work.

I personally use a Xpert 4000LV servo in my 4wd associated, its 90 bucks, pretty speedy and torquey, but is a bit outdated and can only max out at 6.6v.

Cheapo Amazon ones, metal gear, aluminum case, 20kg to 45kg should be just enough for a buggy. Even better if it's HV compatible so you can get more speed / torque if need be, but note your receiver and other things plugged into your receiver has to be HV compatible too.

Do you know if this losi is a 2wd or 4wd?

Also most servos these days use a 25T spline and a TLR 22 - 25T aluminum horn should be a direct fit with the car. I use that servo horn on 3 of my cars and it holds up well.

Most of the club racers and higher level drivers use servos like protek, tekin, xpert, nitropro, Futaba, hitec, savox. Those are the main brands but there are several more out there.

@Littlemotor is the NitroPro nerd on here lol

But they are top of the line expensive though

Oh yea, Ecopower is also a decent servo brand aswell. Mostly used as cheap RTR replacement servos for bashers but can work in a buggy

My favorite budget servo is the Yipin AK70 but it’s only .12sec on 6v so a bit slow

Another one for a little more is the YANTRS 0750AS it’ll be slightly faster at .1sec and weigh less since it’s low profile

I’ve had great luck with both of these servos
