I'm using a few of these Heli servos Align DS620. .07 and I think 180 oz torque at 6v. I've got two, one in my rc8b and rc8t on the throttle since I run 7955 on steering. Running one in the slash and one in the b4.
They have titanium gears and run for $65.

Divide by 2.54 (cm per inch) = about 138.6 oz rating.
Save your money and buy a hitec. Or go buy a Hobbico CS-170 and get a similar servo for less money... without the great Hitec service/warranty.
I'd save my money and buy the Hitec.

A little weak. 10 kg/cm = 10 * 2.2 * 16 = 352 oz/1 cm
Divide by 2.54 (cm per inch) = about 138.6 oz rating.

Quick questions relevant to the topic (trying not to hijack).
I am new to this sport and go by what I read and what others with more experience tell me. So when I ask this question, it's not from a point of argument but rather seeking knowledge.
How does/can .1 sec. speed difference over 60* really be that critical? It almost seems too miniscule.
The second is if one is going to go with a great servo, wouldn't it be better to go with a JR servo that is already Lipo ready? Why go Hitec and digital and still have a regulator or can you get a digital like the 7955 and not need a regulator for Lipo?
