I forget how long my Hitec lasted before it failed but I was not impressed for the $ I paid. Once it was repaired it hit ebay pretty quick. Been running Ko Propo & Sanwa ever since - ZERO DEATHS and they have done many times the work (though they also did cost more). I have heard the hitec digital range are ok but personally im not going to try them again.

Bummy - spend the $ on a servo that will last! Not one that fails in a few months.
