Steering Servo - 03.06.2010, 05:48 PM

Hi Guys

I was wondering what steering servo would you recommend for my gorillamaxx.
Analogue or digital?
Jr vs Hitec?
Torque vs Speed?
single steering vs dual steering
i will be using a spektrum dx3s so i am
not sure if this is compatiable.

Cheers.

Hm, let me see what I did...
digital (should be more precisely, especially with a good RC-system)
Hitec (HS-5955TG, no clue on the JR stuff though)
both (had torque in form of a HS-5645MG in the beginning, was to slow, made the truck handle like on marshmallow highway)
single (if the servo you get is strong enough, 2 servos never get you 2 times the performance)
no problem (have a DX3R)

obviously you should get one with metal gears

The Hitec 7955TG is excellent. As well as the JR9100T or 8700T.

Definitely go single servo. Make sure you get a nice aluminum servo arm to match as well so there is no flex in the arm under high torque.

Another vote for the Hitec 7955TG. I have them in my trucks and it whips the tires like nothing while stationary.

I was looking at the Jr 9100t and the hitec 5645, 5655
i think any of these should do the job.
Will look for these models on ebay
