Yes. The Savox servos are awesome. Double the resolution (4096) of any other servo on the market. That right there is reason to run them. I use 1267 for buggy and 1267/1268 for truggy. In all my 10th scales I use the 1257TG. Insane fast. Warranty is much faster too. Not that you'll need it. And priced less than other brands.

Hitecs are great servos too. I'm not by any means telling anyone to go out and trash all their Hitec stuff and buy Savox. I'm just saying if you are buying a new servo then you might as well get the Savox.

If you have any questions about his set-up or his hair style you can ask me here!

No worries Jesse, go take a nap. I got this!
Does he wear tighty whities or boxers on race day?

Varies with the type of track surface!

I got a nice little set from Integy. 4, 5 , and 6mm. It has a universal handle and you just screw the tips in and out.

Since you are using the Savox servos, just a few questions. For those not using LiPo's, isn't the 1268 a bit low in torque for a truggy? When will the 1270 be available? Some have said that they can get a replacement for a damaged servo over the counter at the place of sale. But others have stated that there is no warranty on the servos. What's the deal with warranty?

At this time there is no ETA on the 1270TG.

As others have stated anything over 200oz will probably get the job done. I run lipos in my 8 scales...

I have contacted Savox USA and asked them to chime in on their warranty policies here. I don't want to comment on that as I might not get it 100% correct.

Never got those batteries made. My source kind of blew out on me with some info I needed. I need to get back on top of this.

Wouldn't it be easier to look to HB engineers to redesign the radio tray? Just asking for curiosity's sake.

If anyone is looking for a lipo for an HB vehicle check out http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/rbor05201.htm

They fit with room to spare and the runtime is insane!
