The Savox draw a ton of power. I run the Hitec 7950s for steering duties on my 1/8 vehicles. Been in the buggy 3 years now, zero failures, and with the Losi 2000mah LiPo receiver battery, it lasts forever (easily last 2 race days) with a 7940 on throttle. While the Savox may not be what you expected, the Hitec will be more than you expect. Fantastic servos!
