If you search the forum there are plenty of threads already running on charger choice and servo choice and there are plenty of inexpensive servos that would do the job much better than the s3004!
Thanks for the input Dan! Ill look into something stronger and faster. Would hate to break a servo right away. I wana try to keep it under $50 or so. Time to do some research.
