95% sure that ace is airtronics.... I used to run an airtronics 'xp' servo and now the ace 'xp' servo looks exactly alike.... IMO ace is absolute overpriced poop

XP 1050 = Team Associated, not sure that AE actually makes servos but I know it's not Airtronics. ACE servo's where basically the same thing. I don't think ACE is around anymore.

They still have them on Tower. But they are identical to the AE ones.

Ace is in fact a Thunder Tiger brand that is either no longer around or is just not around in North America. If it is an Ace servo, the parts from the AE ones will not fit. They were changed just enough even though it is the same servo. They had some running changes with them.

They are a very durable and reliable servo. I had mine for 3 seasons of buggy and truggy, then a year in a rock crawler. I finally killed it by submarining it in a trail truck.

I would have no problems getting another 1015 at all.

BTW, it's a Futaba spline on the Ace/AE servo's. They were never made by Airtronics.
