My current set-up utilizes a 2s lipo rx pack. I find the lighter and slightly slower Futaba to suit my driving and car set-up better than the KO. I haven't tried a 3650 on 2s power, but I know others that have and say it works very nicely.

These are the ONLY three currently available servos I'd consider putting in a 12th scale car.
HKS makes a metal gear servo that is physically identical to the futaba 9650. the 9650 with these replacement gears is popular for cyclic control on 500 size helicopters.
