i just picked up a hobbico CS-170 a couple weeks ago and i really like it! hitec makes it so you know its good. and a friend has been running one in his truggy for 2 years now. and VERY little slop in it. and they are 90 bucks on tower hobbies

That's an easy one! Hitec 7955 BY FAR! It's also one of the best on the market surpassed only by the hitec HV servos.

you have no idea what i put my buggy through. I have 2 mbx 6's and one of them gets put through hell and back. I have 7955 servos in it and it has zero slop after more then a year. it definitley lives up to the reputation. you can't ask for anything more. You can get them for 100$

I broke the case on a jr in 2 weeks
