Which servo under £50
Hi,
I'm looking to buy a new servo for my 2wd buggy. I'd like to pay less than £50. My last servo was an Alturn AAS752MG which after a heavy shunt will not return to centre quickly and eventually causes the receiver to unbind (I assume due to a voltage spike). I've been looking for a decent replacement over the last week, but I keep reading comments about Alturns and Savox's being power hungry and causing some receivers to unbind. I was wondering if anybody had any recommendations. I don't necessarily need the fastest servo, just something reliable. Ideally I think I should get something with a torque of at least 12kg/cm. |

Where can you get Highest or Tresrey servos in the UK for less than £50?

I would save a little more and buy a futaba or sanwa for £90 new. they are much more precise and return to centre better and can take a lot of hammering. other wise you are going to be buying a new servo every season.

Always been a fan of Savox. I've used a 1251mg in both 2wd and 4wd for over 3 years without a glitch. Sold it to a mate for his gt12 and is still going strong

Noted I use 7940 an a expert 3401 but there overbudget just thought as he's looking for reliability more than speed

Thanks for all of the advice guys.
I see the point about buying a pricier servo, but I don't race often enough to warrant it. I have some nice KO servo's at home from the 90's that are better quality, but need a power lead direct from the ESC which is not common now with brushless ESC's. My fear with buying another pricey servo is that the technology will become obsolete again. Seeing the comment about high torque servo's drawing high currents makes sense. I had initially disregarded the Tresrey servo as the torque was less than 12kg/cm, but with this new information about high currents the Tresrey sounds more promising. I was initially going to buy a Savox, but feared it would just cause my Core receiver to unbind. Where can I get these capacitors and do they plug directly into the battery connection on the receiver? Do they come with the plug? |
