Your not getting the point . He is trying to tell you the minimum amount of torque that is needed . Not that he is right and you are wrong and vise versa for you . 120 oz is plenty for todays buggies and if you have more and think you need more then more power to you and whoever else . I`ve used 300-400 oz servos and 130 oz servos in my buggies . I actually do better with a 130 oz servo , but to each his own . There is no right or wrong here , he was just explaining the amount that is needed to turn a buggy not that more is wrong . Long as it works for you who cares .
I test the steering movement on the floor.
Btw, even in my buggy, more torque means more holding power while turning on rough terrain. My home track is too rough for buggy, but thanks to 24kg servo, my buggy can turn very well while other sometimes said understeering on their car.

Here is what I have observed in my Losi LST truck ( I already sold it ). With single 13kg servo, the steering movement is super way too slow and it doesn't reach maximum steering. With double 13kg servo, the steering movement is still slow, but it can reach maximum steering. However, it doesn't reach my satisfaction level. With double 24kg servo, then suddenly the steering become quick and acceptable to my taste.

Jason, BTW, I never spelled arguing "arging" Either way, I would not be the first or last person to spell something wrong in an informal post. No "personal" attack necessary. Please, if you have a problem with something, PM me.

+1 It should not have been that hard to understand...

ACE SERVO
BTW: while we're at it, another question about servos: I got an ACE brand servo and when I conected it to my Futaba Fasst receiver, it just jammed all the way to one side and would do nothing else. I turned the power off. As soon as I turned it back on, the servo went all the way to one side and stayed there, straining.
Does this mean I have to change the wires on the servo plug?? Or is there some kind of incompatibility and I can't use this servo with this receiver??

I have heard of something similar to this with spektrum systems when changing from an analog to digital servo... this might be a similar problem. re-marry the rx to the tx. See if that helps. Note that I have not personally seen that problem, but have been told about it more than once.
