far better to buy a good servo once than to buy a cheap one..ten have to spend again later.
I don't cheap out on servos - I have run Futaba BLS servos for 2 seasons.

The BLS-451 is sooo easily enough, and that 'only' has 10kg/cm of torque.

I run far more expensive servos than Savoxs and Aces - I'm simply saying, still buy quality, but 8kg/cm is enough.
