CheapServoMan on Ebay
 
Anybody ever buy one of his servo's? He is stating that they offer 208oz of torque @ 6.0v. Looks like he has done a lot of business & people are pretty happy.
I am looking for a steering servo for my monster truck & I'm on a tight budget.
I DO NOT RACE. Just looking for something that is solid for my BASHING needs.

Those are Bluebird servos. That servo is a " new and improved" version. I bought several of the previous model. They were junk. They had an average lifespan of 1 month. The specs are a lie, they were slow, weak and never returned to center properly. I've been curious about the new model as well, but I know better. Five 20 dollar cheapie servos, with nothing to show for the 100 bucks in less than a year.
One good Jr9000t @ 100 bucks, going on 4 years old. Still works like a champ.
Hitec TG 5995, bullet proof. Zero issues. Sold it when hard times hit. Wish I never had.
Someone is selling a couple Airtronics 94359 servos in the For Sale forum. Those are excellent servos. They are not digital but they perform just as good if not better than a lot of digital servos.

the ones that cheapservoman is selling are the "towerpro" or "towerDpro" servos that used to be sold for like $13 a while back. I know a few people that ran them on their bashers but they would buy them 3 or 4 at a time and replace them as they broke.

In my Revo last summer I used this Bluebird servo and it held up just fine for me http://www.bphobbies.com/view.asp?id...50&pid=U569935
I never had any problems. Sold the truck this year and as far as I know the servo is still running strong.
