Just another view point. Slower servo helps me drive 1/10 vehicles fast.
exactly. and i agree 100%.

It's very difficult to enter a turn when you have to start turning before the car actually gets there.
could that be from a weakish servo? the way i see it is this.... everyone gets a hard on about how amazingly fast their 125-150oz servo is... take that same fast and weak servo and throw your car/truck in a turn and when the chassis rolls and a good bit of weight is transferred on those front tires then its not so fast anymore is it? i run hitec 7955 servos in everything i have simply because the steering feels much more consistent no matter what kind of load is on the front tires.
just some food for thought....
