You guys with your bling. 4 seasons in eighth scale and i've seen more pissed off people with JR servos than everything else combined. Although i've never tried them Hitec seems to have very satisfied customers and their customer service seems tops. I've run futaba for 4 years and have no clue how their customer service is because i never needed to send one in, ever! Replaced some gearsets after many races but i think that's common to all servos. BLS 351/BLS451 is a superb combo. Now i use the S9157 for truggy steering. 425 oz/in torque regulated at 6 volts. I've often said if something on your vehicle is out of sight, out of mind, it's damn good. Hey not sure, but futaba's cust. service might just suck, haven't had to find out. I even run a losi reg. with switch and haven't had one problem with them either. When switch gets hard to move i replace it. They have been in both vehicles all season. If i knew for a fact the futaba receiver and servos would handle it i would ditch the regulator just so rec. compartment isn't so cramped.
