Exclamation Servo comparisons?

Im looking for a new servo Ive used in the past the spektrum high speed servos and they work great Ive also used a team associated xp 1015 their version of a high speed servo and i liked that one even more. But the guys at work with hate associated so they say nothing good about it. I just want someone elses opinions on the best 1/10 scale servos.

Looking at your avatar the guys at work must not like you very much. I like my xp 1015, lot of people seem to like the Savoxs. At the same time I've got some 2 year old $40 Bluebirds that honestly work as well as my 1015 so....

I just bought a savox and I'm ready to throw it across my room. It's pulling so much power sitting still that it's killing my reviever voltage with a spektrum cap installed. There's no way I can fit a BEC in my DEX410.

I've ran hitec for the past 3 years and had a few failures, but they've always been warrantied. I think I'm going to try a 79xx series hitec next.

And there's no reason you should have too, meaning a servo in a 1/10th buggy shouldn't need a bec. I've heard the 1015 sucks juice too but I've never had an issue.

Ace 1015 is a WAY OVER KILL for 1/10 buggy!

Try
Orion 1007
Spectrum s6040 (ironically, just don't use a spectrum receiver)

Most branded servo with +/-130 oz/in and ~ .11 or less in speed!

Thats what I have said to a local guy who has a JR 8711 in hit T4 but he still kicks ass with it, so that must mean something... If ya got it, might as well try it... Btw I had a JR 9100S in my buggy and that seems like overkill but it worked great! Better to have TOO much than NOT enough!

The infamous JR 590... That brings me back a few years! NOT fond memories!
