Hey Jason,
Unfortunately, no one has had a chance to use that servo as it does not hit the market until August of this year. I have been testing the HS7950TH, and if the 40 is anything like the 50, it is going to be a very popular servo. The 50 is the torqy brother of the 40.

August? The website says June.

The release date got pushed back unfortunately. It will be well worth the wait.

I thought it was bad enough that tower now lists july. August and the season is basically over for anything I will use it in. Might have to pick up a JR in the mean time. Dont want to cancel my order because it was part of a big order and they dont give the discount until after this ships.

JR makes great servos, if you have to have a servo right away that is a good choice. The 7955TG is also a great servo, it just doesn't have the speed i think you are after. IMHO you can't go wrong with titanium. I am willing to give up some speed to make sure that i finish a race.

I actually already have the 7955 in my hyper 9 now. Really want something faster. It was alright when I had 7v going to it but my tekin only does 6v and I really dont want to run an external bec unit.

I think the 7950 needs a warning for those people with radio's without EPA adjustments.. with tah amuch amount of torque on lipo, it would easily strip out servo horns.

So whats the official release date for the 7940 & 7950?

August.

Now mid September. So like right now, right???

Hobby People shows them in stock now.

The first batch has already shipped out to the distributors.

is anyone using it now?
do you like it as a steering servo for buggy?

I am currently using 2 of these servos for steering in my buggy and my truggy. Plenty of power, blistering fast speeds. Best servo I have used to date and I have used the JR9100s, Associated DS1015, Hitec 7955.
