Will an s6040 work in a SC700-bl?
 
I currently have an SC10 RTR brushless.
The stock servo is extremely slow and I want to know if I can upgrade to an s6040 without a glitch buster or capacitor.

Does anyone have the technical know how or better yet has anyone tried to see if this combo works?

I've spent some time googling it and can't find a definite answer.
I don't have the knowledge to be able to read the specs on both and determine if it will work. So if anyone knows how to do that I'd appreciate it.
Thanks for any insite.

I use this servo in my SC10. Now, I don't have that speed controller, but I run a Spektrum radio and ran a Mamba Max Pro last year. The Mamba esc has a notoriously weak bec and is well known for causing servo glitching, even more so when paired with a Spektrum radio. I have not had one single issue with brown outs or servo glitching. The 6040 is a fantastic servo and can not be beat for the money. Check out the reviews at Amainhobbies. Nobody can give you an iron clad guarantee that you will not need a glitch buster or capacitor, but I'd be very surprised if you do.

Thanks for the info. My buddy who recommended the s6040 also guessed that it would work fine. Nice to hear the same thing from another source. I will post my results when I get the new servo this week.

Looking forward to hearing what you think of it. I've been extremely happy with mine. Quiet, very fast, and plenty of power. I'd recommend it to anybody.
