Default Protek Servo or MuchMore Servo

I am looking into servos for my 1/10th 2WD Buffy and was considering the Protek 160TBL or the MuchMore BLS10

From what I can tell, the Protek has more torque, but the MuchMore is faster?

Also, I am going to get a Sanwa M17 so I am not sure if that will help my decision with the SSR mode? Can anyone give feedback or advice?

If you are getting the M17 go with servos from Pro Performance Rc on SXR mode they are amazing. Neither of those servos that you mention can use the fastest mode of the M17. The reason why the Protek servo appears to have more torque than the Muchmore is bc they inflate the number and use dynamic torque vs stall torque

Agree on this one, still plan on getting a Pro Performance RC servo.

My ProTek 150t gear set stripped out during a practice run.. For some reason I can not get the aluminum bellcranks TLR341007 I have to work with a aluminum saver tops tlr or losa so I use the nylon top, well it broke and I temporarily switched to the tlr saver top and one lap later the servo broke. Thinking I may have a bad bellcrank set.

Sanwa PGS series servos are a little pricey but if you can wait a bit you can get good deals on used ones on this forum. I have purchased three so far less than half the price of new ones

If money is no object the futaba ct700 would be the best servo on the market. I use them with my 7px in sr(super response mode).

the servo is a shorty low profile servo with .075 speed and a crazy 680 oz of torque.

A Futaba servo is not the best option to use for your M17,it cannot use Sanwa’s fastest response modes

Sounds like the pro performance is the best SXR servo out there then?

the servos from Pro Performance offer faster transit speeds and have optimized internal gear ratios for the racing application,I thought that my Sanwa PGS servos were good until I tried one. The difference can literally be felt on the first lap with these
