yea i think you guys are right. the t-maxx is a 10lb. 4wd. big wheel truck. i will put the 2075 servo im getting on the throttle/brake. i'll keep the 2070 on steering for now, but i will upgrade it to either that savox or a hitec. which servo would be the best choice for my steering basically? something like in the $40-$50 range.

A little more than you want to spend, but well worth it

The same servo with similar specs in other makes is $30-40 bucks more.

hey ck i am not sure where i read it but check into your radio system being able to use a digital servo. i thought i read it here on rc tech forums that the stock style am radios should only use analog servos. example a stock tmaxx that comes with the 2018 or 2055 servoes are analog type and they dont recommend going digital unless you are upgrading the radio & reciever to a newer digital style too. maybe someone else could chime in if i am making sense or am totally offbase here. if you have a newer tmaxx with the traxxas 2.4 ghz it may not matter. does anyone know if this is true

ok, get back to me in a couple weeks on that incase i forget. im definatley interested! yea i just looked on ebay to at those. only $30 and they sound like a great servo! the torque isn't a lot more than the traxxas one. but i like the metal gears!

ckblood05 02-05-2011 04:46 PM

how about this one? lol :eek: 600+ iz-oz torque!!

440swinger-kid 02-05-2011 04:46 PM

compared to the savox after looking at the torque I would go with that over a hitec..... ten bucks more for more torque is a good deal.... both metal and both with 2 ball bearing
