Default Budget Servo that will fit B5M

I'm having trouble fitting the servos I have laying around. Is there a decent servo that will fit in the 50 dollar range. Not really looking at Savox

Thanks

Tactic TSX40 is cheap and probably the lowest spec servo I would use in a B5M. Metal gears, 0.13s, 99 oz./in @ 6V, $22. Only weighs 51g too, lol. My neighbor uses one in his B5M.

Good choice. I put the protek 130T in my buggy, as the track didn't carry the SS. The numbers are supposedly the same as my savox on the speed side, but wow, what a difference. It was WAY faster. I don't know if Savox is slow, or if Protek is super fast for the specs... only 2 I've ran..

I've had great work with my Savox 1258's in mutiple buggy's and stadium trucks. Good budget servo in the 40-60 range depending where you buy and discounts offered.
