Low profile savox in 4wd
 

I'm thinking of using the savox 1251 low profile savox servo in my xb4, should be ok shouldn't it???

it wouldn't be my choice, as torque is low and they have a tendency to strip gears, but with the servo saver set a bit looser than kit setup it should work. if its a case of using what you have then go for it. I'd have a spare a rvo or gear set in your box for big meetings though. I don't trust the 1251 after stripping gears in my old centro.
when gears start to slip against each other, you can use a hammer and punch to fuse them back together.

A normal size servo would be better as they are more robust but if you are limited on space or already have the low profile servo i dont think it will cause you any major problems.

I would go for the 1257 or 58 in the 4wd, seen lots of 1251's strip gears in 4wd's

run a 1251 in my kyosho zx5 sp2FS no probs at all

I've also ran a 1251 in my lazer fs1 with no problems. Thus was outdoor on astro and indoors on high grip carpet and plenty of full speed prangs to the front end as a returning newbie.

Cheers peeps,

I normally use the 1258 but have bought yet another car and have a 1251 sitting around, so thought I'd give it a try!! :thumbsup:
