so which of those 5 servos im getting are the best?

what should i use for steering and throttle out of those 5?

i might use the best servo outta those 5 as my throttle, and upgrade to a 100$ or so steering servo.

Keep the 590 and the 625. Sell the rest and purchase a proper steering servo. See, now it seems like you are interested in spending money for a good servo which throws off my first post to you. I have used the 995's which is why I recommended them for good super cheap servos. They are not the best, but for the price they are great!

well i didnt think the servos in that package were such junk.

ill keep the 625 in the throttle, and prob buy a nice steering one. you get what you pay for so im not gonna cheap out and have shit steering that im not happy with.

130$ isint much for me, and if it means having no problems with my steering servo and having it last a few years, then i dont see any problems spending that kind of money on a servo, as long as its worth it

Thumbs up

I have one of these servos and for the money would be an excellent steering servo for you and at $80, a pretty good deal!

Thumbs up That is expensive for what you need...

That is way overkill for a buggy. Get the Ace servo at 180 oz/in and you will be happy. You could still afford a set of good rubber as well.
I run 150 oz/in servos in my buggy's steering and they are great. I have never had a problem with them. I'm runnig the Futaba BLS 9451 for both duties in my buggy. At $99 they are by far the best I have ever ran.

Yeah. The money you save could get you some tires and wheels for the track.
