Alright I need some help here
Ok. To begin with I have been driving rc cars for about 4 or 5 years now. I have a traxxas 4x4 slash, I have upgraded it to a brushless motor because I burned three stock motors because of to powerful of batteries. I also have it on 25% extensions to fit e-revo tires. My problem that I need help is I have just gone threw my third standered steering servo. Does anybody have any upgrade to help with this problem or advice? Any help will be greatly considered.

I think most of the problems come from running the truck harder than it was intended.
If you want a stronger servo though savox do have some good options. |
I would also recommend Savox or Hitec.
|
Any name brand HI TOURQUE servo will work just fine.
|
I would recommend a hitec 645mg
It's better gear so you won't have a problem with stripping gears and has the torque to move those e-revo tires ! They go for roughly $35 and get a little over 100 ounces of torque Hope this helped ! |

Turnigy 1258TG. And get a metal horn.

I would go one of these, reasons are there a great servo for a fair price.
http://www.amain.com/product_info.ph...h-Torque-Servo I wouldn't go a savox in your application, the reason is the savox use a lot of power and if your using the standard traxxas speedy you may get brown out because the BEC isn't high enough, especially with those big tires, if your using a high quality speed control with a good BEC then the savox would be fine, if it was me I'd still go the Hitec listed above. Cheers Justin |
bang for the buck and being serviceable with parts from LHS, Savox is great choice even if you need to add a glitch buster or external BEC to use it.
This Savox SW-1210SG is waterproof, cranks out 277 ounces of torque and is in the ballpark price or lower than what other are suggesting. Perfect for your rig I suspect. Or you could try this 1/5 scale 487 oz bad boy... ;) |
Get a 7955tg and be done with ur servo problems.
|
yeah , 7955 if it doesnt need to be waterproof. The stock servos , did the motor burn up or did you strip the gears ? The replacement gear kit is 4$ , and you can get about $15 a piece for the 2075's if you fix them. Last one I did took less than 10 minutes... very simple to do .

Uh, so you're recommending an analog servo (Traxxas 2075 is digital) that roughly has the same torque specs, a slightly slower speed but metal gears.
Really not much of an upgrade considering he's running oversized tires.

I disagree, the Hitec 645MG is a great servo for the Slash 4x4. Ran one in mine for a long time and the same with my wife's slash. Faster than stock, more powerful, more accurate, and more durable for cheap. Very hard to beat on a budget.

You must have gotten a special one blessed by God himself!:lol:
But as a whole the Savox servos are stronger and faster than the hitec servos at the same price and in the same application. Maybe that will push you into using a glitch buster, but still a good choice. |
