Hi guys,

I am thinking of upgrading both steering & throttle servos in a 1/8th scale buggy to the Savox 1258tg. Will these be perfect for both applications? Or can any one reccomend which servos?

Thanks.

you guys wouldn't happen to know a good 1/10 scale servo that would fit in my Redcat Volcano SV would ya?

Yup, thats what I run. Flawless. Checkout Speedzoneusa.com for some good prices on them too.

Thanks mate, I brought one to try on my throttle, i'll see hoe it goes.

so I noticed my new Spektrum(Savox) S6040 was a bit "gritty" when rebuilding my TC. Took the casing off to check it out and everything looked fine debris wise than I noticed when putting the case back on that it was over-tightened screws binding up the bearing. Backed off the screws a bit and it's "smooth as mate"

Just thought I would post this for anyone having a similar problem.

Just so you know, Savox is not the same company as Spektrum.

Spektrum buys and re-badges several Savox servos...Orion does as well

same servo + $20 for a Spektrum logo or $40 for an Orion logo

on the topic of savox, ha.. has anyone got any 1258's for sale?

check out speedzoneusa.com/estore - $64.99

Thanks mate!

Yea the $5 you save on the servo goes out the window for shipping if you compare to Amain.

Speedzone is $65 for the servo and $18 shipping to Canada.
Amain is $70 +$4 shipping....wonder which one is the better deal?

They a selling them on ebay for 68.00 with free shipping!

Didn't realize it was to Canada. US shipping runs about 5 bucks. In that case, A-Main
