I like the low profile of the 9550 - fits my PT next to it without hanging past the chassis.

Is the BLS451 low profile?

No it's not - I just looked it up. 1.4 vs. 1.0 for the 9550.

I have both Futaba S9451 and KO Propo 2413 ICS. Love them both.

Have it in all my touring cars. Can't beat the reliability of a KO servo IMO.

Is there a noticeable difference between the s9451 and the s9452?

If its going in a sedan, get a low profile. That being said, there is current 3 you can get.. The Futaba 9550 which is currently discontinued to its prediceser, the 9551 which is a brushless motor. or you can get the KO 2413. The KO has alittle better specs then the Futaba, but if the Futaba is good enough for Paul Lemiux, then its good enough for me!
