best servo?
 

what servo is the best and strongest FOR the losi 8 T?

Best Truggy Servo
 

Here ya go, this may help a little. Seems like the Hitec 5955TG won. http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...t=truggy+servo

yeah the hitecs are pretty neat.

the 5995, 5990..

I use:

JR DS8711 (highest torque)

or

JR Z9000T (smoothest-IMO)

or

HiTec 5995TG (happy medium and probably best for Losi 8ight-IMO) Also Tower Hobbies now has a copycat version of this servo that looks promising. Normally I won't even consider their products, but this one doesn't look bad: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...7&I=L37024&P=K


All are overkill for torque.

I use the airtronices 358 and its really nice

.10 and 200 o/z

Better overkill than on limit!
I have servo Airtronics 94359Z took it from buggy and put it to truggy once i felt that servo start to heat up and then its heating its going slow. I thought that time is come to this servo, took it apart and took motor also apart and i seen that collector was burned, i polished with thin sandpaper and cleaned it assembled again and now again like new. Burned collector is sign that servo works on limit. So I put it back on buggy and bought Hitec 5955TG for truggy and no any issues on 1.5year.

its futaba all the way. i would recomend a futaba digital S9350 there fast an strong. plus i have never had a futaba servo go out on me.

yeah and dont forget to buy bunch of Fuse Gears (only one nylon gear inside)

Personaly i never used Futaba but saw lots of race interruptions in case of Servo Fail and it was stupid Fuse Gear.

I like the JR DS8711 and the Hitec 5990TG both make over 400 oz, I am not sure which will turn out to be my favorite.

wow thats crazy i have never had a fuse gear go out. i think most servos go out cause people don't ajust there travel.

Once upon a time I used Futaba servos until 2 of them went out on me. Since then I have switched to Hitec and no problems yet.

i have always used hitec servos (numerous 645mg's, and my current 5955tg) but just lost my first 645mg. it was on my crawler, and i don't believe i had the EPAs adjusted properly (surprised i didn't lose the other one on there).

the 5955 is an absolute beast, esp. when fed 6 volts. i'm using that on my eXT8.

well i will agree that hitec has come a long way they do make some really good servos. but i do think that alot of servo problems are because people dont set there end points an travel.

I am using a JR Z9100T in my Revo and it works very well, super fast and can turn the truck if you hold the front wheels!

I run it and a futaba 3050 (for brakes) in my tekno converted revo with a ccbec set for 6.5 volts! Neither servo even gets warm, so I can recommend both for use at 6.5v.

I will say that the JR is alot quieter than my hitec 5997 that is in my LSP. I have witnessed the "knock off" servo that sspconcepts was talking about and it works as well as the hitec it is based on, only maybe a little louder!

I have had excellent success with futaba servos, both their brand and the ones they relabel for other companies. However I have never used a servo that did not have enough torque for the job!

i use an AirTronics 94359Z in my 8T...
