What is some good budget servos for a RTR nitro truggy I don't want to spend 70 dollars and up
 
I love servo threads. I like to peek at what others are using.

I use Amazon servos also :p 😂...

Knowing what speed and torque that you are after... use those B.E.C. voltage specs of your ESC to help track down your next all metal cased servo. Spare gear sets come into play when I shop for a servo. Having the ability to change out gear sets, when they get some slop in them, makes a servo more appealing to me. It may take a bit of searching to make sure a servo isn't just a disposable type "bargain" steering utensil.

Good luck on your shopping.
 
Nsdrc for about $60- good for 8.4v
I actually have some Amazon brand in my nitro xtm, jx servo I think 🧐
“cheap” servos have gone up in price recently so you will be spending $70 at least I bet.

I second these excellent AGFRC servos. I use them on this:

But also:

I run Protek 170 SBL and TBL servos in my 1/8th Sworkz T2E, Xray XT8 and my 1/5th Scale Baja 5B SS, so naturally compare my AGFRC servos to these.

They're literally half the price and waterproof, with a similar performance and response.
