Just get one that is less then .10 response with more then 100oz tq and has metal or titanium gears. So many to choose from. I run the Savox 1257 and its all the servo I could ask for.

I AM HAVEING TO REPLACE MINE WHICH IS A TRAILING ARM BUT DIDNT KNOW IF IT WOULD BE BETTER TO GO TO AN INLINE!?!?!

I use this servo in my nitro for throttle. Works awesome on high voltage how does it do in a buggy? Hell of a servo for $15. Fast and good torque.

That solar is a great servo. I used it in my Losi 22 for a while. It was just as fast and strong as my other savox. The only complaint I have about it is the teeth on the servo horn fit a bit loose.

too loose? were you using the airtronics horns? The A horn from my kit is "pressed" on.

Lol. I am on my phone right now. The better and easier question is how is the tekin rs more advanced.... I dont see how it wins out in any catagory, aside from popularity. Not true. Tekin has a great military program. Best I have seen

Hey folks. I am somewhat of a newbie to RC (A 20 year break). I am amazed by all the new technology with Lipo and brushless. I think I lost interest back then when everything was going nitro. I am finding out now that electric is stronger then ever.
Anyway my question is about a B4.1 I recently purchased and would like to upgrade to big bore Kyosho velvet shocks. I look around and find various shock lengths 38mm, 46mm etc. but have no idea what shocks will fit a B4.1
I know Kyosho's are expensive but extra tax money helps and I see great comments about them. Being in the automotive trade for 35 years makes me a stickler for part numbers to insure I get the right stuff the first time.
Any help would be Awesome.
Thanks

Wildcat1971 03-12-2013 05:47 PM
