I had two servos fail on me in the same day. One was repaired by Hitec and the was only about 3 months old. the one that was repaired was kepted as a back up. when the other servo failed, I installed the other repaired servo and it only made it about 5 laps. I don't understand how these servos failed. I didn't have any major collisions or unusual abuse. just racing. I had them installed in a losi xxx-nt. I have a buddy that was running a stock servo for two season without any problems. I would like to know if hitec will repair these servos, or am I just out of $120 bucks? I have one more that I have not had no problems with but I am scared to run it on a nitro vehicle in fear of a runaway.

was your servo saver really tight?

I have run Hitec servos for years, I have 5, run in gas truck, buggy, truck, tc, 1/12, 1/10 pan; I've broken servo savers but not the servos yet.

I've always heard great things about Hitec servicing servos.

What servos are they?

How where you using them...(steer or th)???

Do you use ABS?

They should be able to help you out with the repair.

I was using them for steering and throtle. the first one that went out on me was being used on the throtle. I sent that one out to be repaired so i bought another one. then my steering servo went out and i replaced it with the one that I got back from hitec.it then failed. the gears are not stripped. no i do not use abs. yes i do know how to set epa correctly. i'm not a rookie. It seems to be a motor problem with the servos. The servos are a hs645mg and a hs625mg. and no, the servo saver is not to tight. i used a jr plastic geared servo to finish out the season. I have heard many other complaints from racers at my track having problems with there hitec servos. I would like to think that you do not have to spend $100-$120 to get a servo that you can depend on. I choose hitec because the price was right and the guy at the hobby store recommended them to me as a good servo.

I had the same trouble with the 600 series servos Black Flag. Do yourself a favor! move up to the 900 or 5000 Digitals and your troubles will be gone!

I also have another hs625mg that I almost forgot about. I had that in my T-maxx. I was using it for throtle. It met the same fate as the others. Can I send these three servos back for two upgraded servos? or something? rob

I also tried that BlackFlag... My answer was, NO!

Yes, you can send them in...

Sorry, no upgrade option available....

I don't understand I am offering three servos for two. that should equal out in value. I'm not looking for a hand out. If I can pay the difference I will.

I have the verys very same problem , gears are not stripped might be the motors..i have 2 625 MG both are gone waiting for repair.. not cool

I have spoken with about 8-10 other racers at my track that have had the same problem with their servos. what gives?

If you don't have anything constructive/helpfull to post, please don't post.

My 5625 throttle servo died today during warm-up for my main. It has only been in the car for 2 races and this is the second time it has failed. Another warranty repair.
