Won't ever recommend them to anyone, not even someone I don't like.
Were they the cheaper ones or the $40-$60 coreless servos?

I just ask because I've had the Hitec 5625mg and the 5645mg and they lasted for about a month and then crapped out as well as a 5965mg at $95which melted out the bottom of the of the servo case by a faulty amplifier. And it seems like I'm the only one they won't cover with the warranty on here reciept or no reciept.

The point is every company is going to have faulty servos and customer service but when TIM3 gets his and does what he does with it would be a more accurate resource of the higher end servos that Bluebird has. And at half the price of the Hitec BL that are supposed to come out far into the future but if you look at the Bluebird website at there BL specs they are just as good or better than the Hitec specs but cheaper.
