Sweet gonna give it a shot. :nod:

What would you guys recommend for a 2wd and 4wd 10th buggies?

I have a Savox 1257TG in my B44, and it is real nice. The car rotates well and is almost telepathic with how fast that servo is. For 2wd, the 1257TG has plenty of torque at 138 oz.-in., but the 0.07 sec transit time is so fast it might be a bit twitchy depending on your set-up. It would certainly work, it just might be a bit of overkill. The 1251MG is a low-profile servo, which means it is just not as tall from output shaft to plug end, but it has more manageable torque and speed for 2wd at 125 oz.-in./0.09sec. It is also a little cheaper(like $5 less). Either 1257TG or 1251MG would certainly get the job done in 2wd, the speed is up to you.

Does anyone have any input on the Spektrum cap vs. the Novak version? My hobby shop has the Novak one in stock and I definitely need something to cure the brown out issue on my Spektrum 3500 micro rx.

When steering lock to lock on the radio I see the light on the receiver go dark for 1 to 2 seconds and I loose all control.

Need this fixed so I don't loose control on the track.

I think all of the manufacturers of glitch busters use the same Capacitor, so the brand makes no difference. The only thing different is the price. Go for the Novak, it'll fix your issues.

i'm about to put the 1267 and 1268 in my 1/8 buggy , should be ok being i'm coming from hitec 7950.also how good is savox warannty.

Thanks for the advice!

I have looked into it and they are actually different. The Spektrum is 4700uf, 10v. The Novak cap is bigger in size but don't remember the rating. The LRP cap is much smaller uf rating than the Spektrum.

I will buy the Novak one tonight and report back. I tried to find a capacitor locally and make my own but the electronic components stores in my area don't carry what I need.

Thanks very much

Never had to use it lol

I haven't either, can't offer any input on the warranty.

A larger capacitor USUALLY means larger capacitance because there is more dielectric material present. I'm not sure of the numbers for any of them but if the Novak is larger it should offer greater charge storage than the spektrum which can only help. The 10V is a max voltage rating, I believe, and Spektrum uses this because some of their Rx's are rated at 9V. The Novak may have a smaller V rating, but should still offer large Capacitance(uF).

Anyone elses input would be appreciated because I am by no means an Electrical engineer.

P.S.- Do you have your radio's EPA adjusted properly so you are not binding at steering end-points? Just curious if that might be causing the increased draw.

the novak i believe is 5600uf/10v.. don't know about the LRP....

Savox Servos have a 1 year warranty on them with the typical disclaimers like abuse, misuse, etc. They have a USA office so it should be aquick turn around, but like I said I don't have any experience using it. That's gotta say something about the quality.

it dose not matter what cap you use no servo will ever come close to the 4700uf mas theyu use is about 1100uf and about 7.5 volt at spike so your fine to use any of thm as they all do the same job.

i use spektrum cap because there cheap all i run in my rc is savox servo's and spektrum cap's even if it dont need it
