Default Replacement for my favorite servo!

OK all, I'm in a predicament. I have to find a new favorite servo! I don't want to break the bank but I just did an rc trade and I traded away my prized Radiopost Red servo. I'm looking for something super durable and fast. Think 1/8 buggy/truggy steering. Thing is, this servo is going into a Losi baja rey, and I don't want to have to take it out because of stripped gears.

What's your favorite servo? Chime in please!

The best bang for your buck servos I've used are the Xpert line on Amain's website. Their full size servos have awesome torque and speed specs for the price. Anything from the 4000 series and above would be fine for your needs though they also offer low profile servos with excellent specs as well. Not recommending those for the larger scale cars but just an option as well if you have other vehicles now or in the future

I've been using JX servos for a little over a year now in both my 1/8 buggy and truggy.... the gears are lasting about 10+ months before they strip so not sure if this will meet your needs.

I've been hearing good things about SRT servos and have recently bought one to start testing this weekend, but you'll need to enable HV if you want fast speed out of them, more info here:
