Please recommend me a servo!

Looking for a MG low pro servo for 1/10 2wd. Want something top bomby and pretty bullet proof?
Currently using a 1252 Savox, but since clipping a pipe in a shunt it worried me how easy the spline stripped.
Anybody got some decent feedback on LMR ones, etc etc?

The 3 to look at are Sanwa, Ko Propo or Expert (Lee Martin range).
While the savox are ok, with servos you really do get what you pay for.

Haha, yeah I'm finding that out buddy, the Savox performs well, but man it stripped easy, doesn't help me being crap and having no saver on the YZ2 lol.

Just looking at something MG, low pro and tough, so, yeah, money isn't an option, don't want to be losing track time with broken servos, lord knows i NEED track time lol.

So the Xpert range are rated then, not just an endorsed wolf in sheeps clothing?

So the P13401-LM, that would be a bit of a beast? Anybody used this model?

We had the same problem in my sons TC with the savox but once a saver was fitted all problems have gladly gone.

Don't know how tight you are for space but may be cheaper than a new servo.

I use the Xpert ones only the 3401 range fine, but they are good.

Lee Ive used all above. I now use Absima. Best servos Ive used. Used these for nearly a year now fantastic...........

I totally agree with Brian but recommend you consider the Futaba BLS551 too, I've got one in both my 4wd and forward motor 2wd and another waiting to go in the RB6. They have been bullet proof and never run a servo saver.

Cheers lads, i did in the end pop for the PI-3401-LM. Seems a good unit, just waiting for it to land.
Mark i did look at Absima but wasn't sure, what models are you running, as i do need a decent unit for the YZ10 as it goes.

I use the combat series ACS 1612 SG. Steel Gears

Hmm, looks good, thanks Mark, may get a couple in the next few weeks, could do with a decent one for the Stealth 91 too, too many cars, not enough gear to fill 'em lol.
