Default Radiopost Servos?

Hey guys, thinking about trying a Radiopost servo in my truggy and was going for the torque servo. Don't know anybody with one, so how are the radiopost servos as far as reliability and longevity? Any opinion?

They are GREAT. They are super quiet and the specs are AWESOME. Run them in both my buggy's. Have green for throttle and break and red for steering. We'll get together and you can see in person soon.

You can get more info from here: http://www.rctech.net/forum/radio-el...ost-korea.html

I just picked up a mid (green) model for my sc10 4x4. So far its awesome, I'm currently using a cheap radio system and the servo picks up the poor spring tension of the radio when you let the wheel go. Its kind of funny watching the wheels wobble back and forth with the radio wheel. The numbers are sick, I think the high torque servo has the same speed as most brands high speed servos. I'm currently saving for the radio system.

The only down side I see is the wire lead is just long enough to reach to the rx box in my SC10 4x4. Another inch would be perfect.

Pull the bottom plate off of the servo and double check to make sure all the lead is out. With the Radiopost servos you can coil the unneeded wire into the base making for a very clean installation....

I've got the Mid (green) servo on my FT SC10. I never knew a servo could be so quiet and precise. Torque is outstanding and speed is lightening fast. Best I've seen.

Only gripe I have is pretty minor. The connectors in the plug were poorly crimped leaving frayed wires and reduced conductivity. I did not notice a decline in performance. I simply carefully soldered each connector and reinstalled.

I have a red one. Great servo. Holding up just fine so far. Really don't need anything faster.

I'm using the the high torque servo as a steering servo on my 1/4 scale lightning. Turns those big tires no problem.no issues at all in the last race.

We have had nothing but positive feedback from the ones we have sold. They are very smooth and quiet. They are all I will run from now on.

I put the "red" Radiopost in my truggy and ran it for the first time. You turn it on, and you start checking connections bc they make absolutely no noise!!!! Did I plug these in????? They are by far the quietest servo on the market!!!!! They are for sure online with my Ko Propo's for sure!!!! If they last I will not buy another KO Propo again. $80 cheaper and on the same level! Have seen the new Savox's in action and these are next level compared to them and the noise they have!!!!

Bump of this topic, as I'm on the way to purchase a Radiopost LP servo (best specs speed/torque compared to Sanwa or KO ).

My question is = which type of servo horn fits to this brand?

Thanks a lot in advance!
