servo question
 
i have noticed that theres different kinds of servos on the market now. My question is what the difference between a standard servo, a brushless servo, an a digital servo an which is the best to use.

I have always used the standard old style and they work great.... the JR I sent will be fine for what you are doing. When you break it or strip it then upgrade to a metal gear digital.... I dont have any experience with the new brushless ones but I am guessing less draw and last slightly longer....

Here's something about the diff in digital vs standard servos -

Brushless is just that, the motor in the servo is brushless. The answer to what's best is not an easy one. Best by what measure? Cost? Speed? Torque?
Longevity?

yea i put the JR you sent in the losi i just have to get a steering horn for it. But i was just wondering what the difference was in them. Ive always used the stanard one too.
