1) show me one place that I have misquoting something that i didn't immediately correct?

2) Here is their HIGH VOLTAGE ULTRA TORQUE SERVO with specs of 0.11s and 361.

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...o-High-Voltage

Specifications:
Torque: @6.0v - 208 oz-in. (13 kg-cm) / @7.4v - 361oz-in. (26 kg-cm)
Speed: @6.0v - 0.13sec/60° / @7.4v - 0.11sec/60°

like i said, many of us folks have no choice to take the specs we see on the web. THAT'S ALL WE HAVE!

3) My comparison question was about the older and new hitec servos. Never about the savox. That wasn't my interest. If savox are more power hungry, I do not dispute that!

A. My latest posts clearly are not comparing the soon to be released BL servos from Hitec. They are pointed towards the current Hitec HV servos.

B. I do not go off specs from retailers like Amain Hobbies, I get em direct from the mfg. The Savox 1268 is a "high torque" servo with spec ratings of 347oz./.11(which has been found to have a real world value closer to 190-200oz/.15-.16 at 7.4 volts.)

C. I am not disputing the current Hitec HV servo's current draw. Right around 2-2.5amps is correct regardless if its a 7940,7945,7954 or 7950 thats about what they all draw, in the 2 amp range. The 1268/1267 Savox servos have shown to draw over 5-6 amps of current. So compared to the HV Hitec servos thats 2-3 times more current draw as stated. They use a really cheap coreless motor thats powerhungry.

As for the new lower current draw of the soon to be released Hitec BL servos, I cannot confirm anything yet. But knowing Hitec and their ability to come reasonably close and/or hit their rated specs, I wouldnt doubt that they will be drawing less than an amp of current. Won't know till they are relased though. WHen they are, I will be picking up 3-4 of em.

D. I clearly am Hitec biased because they PERFORM. If they didnt perform as good as they do and there was a better performing durable servo out there for reasonable money, Id be using that instead. I have used Hitec servos for 20 plus years, and they have always met or exceeded my expectations. I only buy the best products. I don't waste money on junk.
