Centering problems?
I have used two hitec servos for some pretty heavy duty, 5645s in a Maxx and homebuilt 4x4 stampede. I have never noticed any problems, but on the Traxxas boards the moderators are quick to say that Hitec servos are junk and that people should stay away from them. I have found them to be a good deal and to function well, any comments fromt the hitec people?
The reason I am asking this is that I think they are a great reccomendation, but the word of the mods is often taken as truth with no room for opposition. I would like to be able to take some hard evidence or at least an official word from Hitec with me to the table.

I'm running a combination of 5625s & 5645s in all 7 of my r/c. There are people bashing those servos, but I have yet to have any problems with any of mine. I run an E-Maxx, Kyosho truck, MRX-3, and 4 touring cars. The few problems I had with other servos were quickly resolved by Hitec. I have to stand behind Hitec products and their customer service.

Unfortunately these comments will come up all the time. I have never had a problem with centering and neither has anyone else in my region. There have been servo failures, but 99% of the time its due to misuse of the servo for a given application.
Our products are top line. We just happen to promote a middle ground line of servos and gear for the average enthusiast. An option to step up to better equipment without breaking the bank. We also have our top end servos that are equal to if not better than the competition.
I am going onto my 4th year with Hitec, and in that time I have had nothing fail on me. All of my servos have been beat up at one point in time or another by other racers curious about Hitec products, or in need of a servo for an emergency at major events.
You can if you like invite those moderators to this forum to discuss any issues they may have with our products. I am sure Myself or Tres will be glad to talk with them. TTYL.
