Default Servo recommendations for TC 7.2

Just picked up a lightly used 7.2. What would be a decent servo for this car? I was thinking about a Savox 1258 or 1251. I’m thinking a low pro is the way to go. I’ll be running black carpet and maybe asphalt on occasions.

I'm partial to Futaba; BLS551, BLS571, or S9551

If you have a Sanwa radio (and want to maximize its potential), Sanwa servos are a good (although pricey) option as well.

I’ve read up a little about the. But I don’t run Sanwa. Seriously considered switching though. Lol.

I recently started using the ShiftRC RRS servo on a few of my TC's and am quite happy with it. I prefer the metal case so you don't need to worry about the mounting ears warping or breaking. It also is Sanwa SR mode compatible. This servo is $85 but is more comparable to some of the $100+ options.



The Futaba S9551 is also a good choice.. that servo has been around, unchanged for a long time for a reason. They have gotten expensive though. At that price point, i would get the RRS.
