Here is a reply I got from Airtronics on it.

The Airtronics number of that servo would be 94971. However, at this time we have no plans to bring that servo to the U.S. as our previous attempts of importing servos of this cost have resulted in less than favorable results. Simply put, customers are not willing to pay such high prices for a servo like this. What many people have been using for 1/12 scale recently is our 94819 servo. Personally, I have one in a Team Associated RC12R5.1 and like it very much.
Hmm.. So I would have to source overseas for a Sanwa-HR-141.. I also wonder, is it that much more expensive than a JR servo that they couldn't import it? The 94819 servo he mentions is a budget servo (and bigger).
