Default servo suitable for Stadium truck?

Is this a good servo? I am looking for a good budget servo from Hitec because they have a great repair policy!

Metal gears are better. Don't want to strip a servo in the middle of a race.

The MKS DS210 servo is good and its only $35.00 never had a issue with it in my T4.1 when racing. Its Titanuim gears has about 138oz of torque the speed is .15 its just fast enough could be a little faster i dont run a steering saver ethier . Its on Backorder however.

I would recommend the Specktrum 6040 servo but i striped the gears out on it not the toughest servo on them could of been my fault though. Its a good servo though and very fast and smooth .

I will recommend the Spektrum 6040. I run it in many of my cars and never had an issue. Guessing stripping the gears in one is very rare. For the price it's a heck of a servo and is great for stadium truck.

Yea im not sure why my striped out maybe i hit some pipes to much not sure. I dont run a steering saver on it . The end points seemed set right.

Im going to rebuild it with new gears anyways . Its a good servo lots of torque and quick for a Staduim truck.

The 6040 is 69 bucks everywhere I look.. For the price I feel like I should buy the hitec due to their repair policy..

Hitec has a very good repair policy, because chances are you will send it in sometime.
