I don't see a torque rating on it. I may have missed it. Been known to do that. What are you going to use it for?


Peace!

It's rated at 13kg/cm, which converted to oz./in. is 180.5oz./in. Not too shabby!

It's from Hong Kong, no surprise there. It's also from Dinball (aka: RC Mart), they're really cool and do a great job getting their stuff over to the US. That price is great though, and they say it's basically a KO Propo servo.......whatever it is, I'd say it's worth the $25 to check it out.

No. This Tower Pro servo is a FET servo, and is the same as the Ko Propo one that stampy listed.

I thought the 333 oz of torque was plenty to turn my tires. Why you need so much? 300 is more than enough to turn the tires on grass at a stand still.

well i got my z9000t today and ive got a problem :( . it twitches like mad. any body know why? i threw my old jr standard servo in there and its fine to twitching or nothing. im using a jr xs3 synthesized radio with a rs300 receiver to power the servo i used 2 things, i used the bec from my duratrax esc and then i used a 4 aa receiver pack (it twitched with both so i dont thing its the power source) is it maby because its digital servo on an analog receiver maby?

o and all the betteries are fresh so that shouldent be whats causing it

after 28 days of waiting I just got mine. I would go test it out but there for my crawler project and I'm awaiting a frame.
