Default Buying servos.

Hi all.

I have a black magic x-raptor which needs a new steering servo. The book states its a 3kg/cm one.

When I buy one, what do I look for, there is a million of them and I don't even know how to tell which is the right size.

Please help lol

I am 98% sure it will take a "standard size" servo; example: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXZV41&P=ML What I can't tell you is if will need to be a digital one and/or what input plug it will require to the receiver. Stuff tends to be pretty standardized around the Futaba I linked to but with the off-brand RTR's, I can't say for sure.

I vote HITEC...a 645mg will be good enough to keep ya close to the stock servo, but alot stronger, and of course. Metal gears
