ive got 4 of those ko low profile servos, obviously for 1/10th steering use. awesome servos. no dramas.
won't touch any more ko's for 1/8 offroad use ever again. killed my 4th and final one at the recent state titles
..was using full size ones rated between 12kg and 15kg.

Looked at the savoxs
situation is that my buggy does not center accuratly 100% of the time
Tried 2 servos, no difference
tried 3 recievers, no difference
checked V output of transmitter pot, within 1 mV
VARIATION OF DEFLECTION IS PROPORTIONATE TO EXPONENTIAL OF STEERING, therefore rulling out binding steerring
thought is to increase neutral band so the deflection is not relevent

anyway I just started using the x-core servos from topracing.com.au and they are great price vs features. Coreless too so they last longer than the ko 2413 I replaced

Programmable servo seems the way to go

You are willing to comprimise a little on the servo, so why can't you get a cheaper transmitter? If you know the transmitter is the problem, change it. Good 3PK's aren't anywhere near $500!!
I don't know how many cars you have setup, but by the time you get say 3 or 4 servos to fix the problem, you have payed as much as a new transmitter Steve.

Steve, i know a few guys are now using the Blue Bird servos from Hobby King, great on the budget and good quality, Metal Gear, High Speed, more than enough torque and CHEAP!

I have that Futaba 9551 in my Blowie has been fantastic, thanks Roman. But I also have the digital version of the Hi-Tec one (name escapes me) that everybody uses in nitro and that has been bloody brilliant, until it started gloitching on me the other day, but I sorted that out, a wiring issue.
They are both about the same price.
