You can reply to one thread instead of creating another...it still bumps it back up to the top.

What are you planning on doing with your servo. Any servo will work with a DSM radio, but you may have to modify the plugs to fit the reciever. A digital servo will help to make the most of your DSM system. A DSM system is great, but the application is more important than the transmitter when you're looking into buying a servo. Relpy with your application and then we will talk about a suitable servo.

For electric on-road, the best choice is an FET servo that gets its power straight from the battery. That way the receiver is not trying to power both the servo and the reciever.

I have a KO 2123 and it is great, but expensive.

What ESC's are you using? Some LRP ESC's find it difficult to handle Digital FET servos. I'm not sure if a Digital Servo is a must have in TC racing, but it would be good to have seeing as though they align themselves much more quicker and accurately. If your not to serious on racing, then any high-speed servo will be fine.

www.slickzero.com sell nice servos.

fet/digital...all nice but completely irrelevant for off road.

You want a servo that has a reaonable speed and reasonable torque.

Look for one with about 100oz + torque and transit speed around 0.15s

That should be fine.

Futaba 9451 is a good choice, there are many to chose from, i dont like Hitec, but others have had no issues.

... but just make sure you buy a High-Speed based servo, not a Torque based.
