Orion servo's are produced by Savox for them they are an extremely good product

I use these in my buggy both throttle and steering

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...-Digital-Servo

they are faster and have more torque than a futaba bls451-452 and bls351

or if you want more torque

The Orion and Savox are produced by ALIGN.
In the UK the Orion are £80, savox £55, align £43. All are identical the only difference being the gear sets to give different torque and speed. I have an Orion 14kg 0.09 and align 12kg 0.08 and they are identical even down to the gear sets so one company is either over doing the specs or the other under doing them. Either way I've had no problems with them unlike the 4 burt out aces in my garage and a BLS352 with a bust BRASS gear

Now thats interesting as the savox is 10kg at .07 or 20kg at .15 (6.0v imput)

I wonder wether any of these companies is the actual producer now or wether they are all just getting their product from someone else

heres the savox details

http://www.savoxservos.nl/?cat=14&lang=en

and heres the align

http://www.rcheliresource.com/align-servos-ds610ds620/

the reason I stated that Orion was produced by savox is that on the orion box it states that they are produced by savox....interesting

The savox and align both do the same 12kg 0.08 @ 6.0v / 10kg 0.07 @ 4.8v servo the only one that align don't do is the 20kg version. Either way all of them are great but the align is the cheapest in the Uk.
