apparently sir your a Hitec emplyee or someone who like to keep the pot stirred. The motor tabs kept breaking off in my servos. But I can see no matter what someone says you know all and see all...I am done argueing with you sir. Anyhow I am done with this pissing contest with you. And I do not recall saying EVERYONE at 1 time was having servo issues. Anyway the reason for me leaving is the motor tabs kept letting go and I myself can not afford the $100 per servo. anyway...hope you are happy you got yet another person to step back and shut up.
and growing up I was always taught and thought if you could not figure a problem out then get help from someone who you think knows how to fix the issue. In other words get a 2nd opinion. but of course you being so great I am sure you never require help.
I see the smear campaign by you continues..by the bold areas in your above quote.And another reason I am shutting up is You do not know me nor I you but how dare you sit there at your keyboard and assume what someone does or knows...anyhow I hope you have a good day cause I am done with this.

As far as not being able to properly set EPA's.... I think you need to step back and rephrase that because this was NOT user error.
The 7955's, 645's etc are great servos.... But I myself have witnessed too many issues out of the 7954's to justify the money..

I can shed a little light on this. 1st 7954 to let go was in steering position.. EPA were set well shy of max travel. No binding or whatnot.. That one was sent in, repaired by Hitec and returned. The next one was in throttle position the very next race. That was replaced with the one repaired by Hitec. With EPA set at less than 50% of the REQUIRED travel the servo started the same thing.. I have the servo in my possesion and am fixing to send it into Hitec to be repaired/replaced.

i believe both servos are great... i have a 7955 on my flux.. and a 7954(steering) and a 1258(throttle) on my savage ss.....i'm planning of selling the 1258 to get a high voltage servo since i will also be getting a lipo rx...

OK, so the steering servo, it just let go out of the blue? Was a servo saver of any kind on it or just and aluminum arm? Hard impact when it let go? Or just a defective servo? And just to clarify on this, the "motor tabs" your refering to, your not talking about the mounting tabs right? Just want to clear that up. Just curious what exactly broke. I assume all the servos that did end up returned were 7954's?
The steering servo failure I can understand more due to the higher stress turning the truggy. That however does not explain why a brand new AND a servo repaired by Hitec would fail in the throttle position. The bad part of it all is I never had the chance to get the travels FULLY set on the repaired servo before it failed. Literally 5 minutes after installing it started acting up. I always start with the EPA's set low and work up to where they are needed.

The tabs that hold the motor in place are the main issue that cause failure in the Hitec servos. Actually, its a weak spot in almost all servos. One company has the solution, but its not either of the two discussed in this thread.
Keep in mind that it is amazing servos last as long as they do. Every time you come up short or over shoot a landing, its like hitting your servo with a hammer.
Take it easy on each other guys, I'm sure neither one of those servo companies is paying your rent. No need to get so worked up.
