I just got a good deal on a set of 40 veliociity rims and Dirt Hawg tires, and while I'm still running my stock servo, I figured now would be a good time to look for a Metal Geared High Tourq steering servo before mine goes to poop. Anyway I ran into this site ServoHut.com and was curious if anyone here had done any buisness with them. Any pro's or con's? It looked like a smaller buisness and just thought Id check it out before I got anything from them. There prices seem pretty cheap too.

2nd, When I built my Maxx, I used the servos that someone recommended to me, which were Hitec645. I liked it alot, but was curious what to look for in a good servo? I know sometimes a person has to sacrafice speed for more tourqe and more speed for less tourqe. So I was curious which you guys think is the best? Also which would be the best in my situation. (I'm strictly a basher and this would be for my Savage 25 with the 40's on it) Any help would be appriciated.

:cheers: Thanks fellas :cheers:

Yes... unless you want to pay more :D How much are you looking to spend? we could probably give a better idea on which servo to get if we have that info :)
 
well I want to spend as least as possible (Of course) but know that doesn't happen very often in this hobby. I just need a good servo. Nothing dramatically awesome, just something that works good and is reasonably priced but not cheap crap. Something middle of the road I guess. I'm still using my stock throttle servo and still stock reciever and controls for now.
 
I bought a mg servo from servo hut a few years ago,119 oz of torque. I put it on a Duratrax nitro Quake and it did just fine. The speed was a little slow but it could turn those big tires while sitting still with no problem.
 
I would also recommend the Hitec 5645 digital metal gear servo that ImBroken linked you to. Servo City is great to deal with too, I have dealt with them a few times now and have always gotten excellent service.
