Let me say this about servos ... Ran savox in all our cars for 2-3 yrs last season I built our new cars with futaba bls-551s and was blown away how much more connected we were to our cars .
Then as a experiment I added New airtronics servos(erb-871) to our usgt cars and being the only difference made we both were able to get better more consistent laps and switched to airtronics thru out all our cars and they are night and day better than a 1251 savox we ran for yrs ... Would have never guessed it

Best bit of advice on servo's is simply to go with the brand that matches your radio gear... they are designed to work together! Can save a large number of headaches that you may never attribute to a servo.
On that point, the SDX-801 is still my preference for servo in TC, over the more expensive and faster SRG-BLS v2. It's the perfect speed and feel IMO, at almost 1/2 the price.

The proamps servos i switched to gave similar improvments in feel and connectedness with my sanwa radio.
Inputs were much more precise and there is no wander on straight sections or the steering not returning quite to center.
I was thinking of getting sanwa srg but thought id try these out and im very happy with them.
I ran 1252mg in my touring car for a long time and i thought it was pretty good. Id definitely say good for the price, but the proamps arent much more expensive than a high end savox and seem to compare very nicely to high end futaba/sanwa

Has anybody Used this Xpert servo? Trying to decide
Between this and he Savox 1251. The Xpert has better specs but just wondering if it is as good of a brand as Savox. I always use Savox in everything and just thinking about trying somethings different.

I would however highly suggest looking at the PI-3402 instead. Much more modern encoders, gears, and motor.

I think you'll be happy with either one though

I think kyosho and/or tamiya have shims like that. I have some that are really old and can't remember for sure what brand they are. You might also find that clutch shims may work.

Some of the newest Xpert stuff is actually very very good. This is more of the budget servo from them, but it still is very good for the money.

CRC black carpet setup question:
I am working on an initial setup for carpet, and I was wondering if anyone uses the outside attachment point on the arms for the rear roll bars? In the manual it says that it is good for high traction. Is this a good starting point for carpet?

I didn't test this on the new carpet, but I've played with it on a track that had very high traction gray carpet.

That link point works almost like standing up the rear shock, it will keep the rear of the car flatter and will generate a little more side bite. Its not as big of a change as moving the shock though. It's good to try if you're lacking stability but I don't think you'll need that for the new carpet.

The spare is still in the shrink wrap after 12months almost - so that's a good sign.
