servo advice..

[cooldude]

I'm looking to just use two servos one servo for turning and other for break/throttle will my stock traxxs servo handle it?

what are good servos to use for what I'm looking to do?

also it dont matter the brand of the servo because I'm using a Fatuba reciver 2PL CH..

thanks

The Traxxas 2055 will handle brake/throttle duty just fine. For steering you need at 140oz of torque. Jr650m is a good performer for 50 bucks, but the motors like to go out in them too easily IMO.
Another mid grade servo is a the Hitec 985, it offers 180 oz of torque.
The Hitec 645 or 5645 (digital version) is a good choice as well.
How much do you want to spend is a big factor.
I say go ahead and drop a JR9100T or Hitec 5955TG in. THese are $115 a piece but well worth it. Nice long warranty on them as well. 300+oz of torque from these, they can actually flex the chassis if you don't set the end points correctly.
Browse Towerhobbies to get an idea of what you want to spend, most of the servo listings tell you if they are for ground/air use.
I'd say 180oz of torque with a transit speed around .15 is perfect for the average basher.

+1 on the 985MG. It's been a great servo for me. I use them for t/b servos on my buggy and my aftershock. I ran one for steering and t/b in my revo when I had it. Fast, pretty high torque and o-ring sealed to help against water damage.

The o-ring sealed is why I run them as t/b servos. Since I bash in snow and typically inclement conditions, I'd rather spend the extra dough on a servo I don't have to worry much about. Plus, I needed the extra torque on my aftershock since I run a single CF brake disk.
