Anyone into R/C?

Naw you wouldn't be slamming me, it's my first r/c car.. poor decision to go with nitro.

 

In a blitz and 4wd slash... I want new servos in both..

And more thing, how do I know what's a good servo? What do I look for? What size servo goes in a sc truck?

 

you want fast speed and good tq for short course trucks.

here are the specs on my savox servo. Its the best servo I've ever used.

Dimensions(mm): 40.3x20.2x37.2
Weight(g): 52.4
Speed(@4.8V sec/60): .10
Torque(@4.8V oz-in): 133.3
Speed(@6.0V sec/60): .08
Torque(@6.0V oz-in): 166.6
Gear: Titanium & Aluminum
Bearing: 2BB
Case: Aluminum
25 Tooth Spline

 

I think Ill try and sell my Slash soon if anyone here wants it. 4x4 BL with the factory traxxas pack and a lipo pack, and a set of track tires along with the factory tires. $225 obo?

 

what is it doing?

I might be able to help you

Why so much hate against nitro?

 

most people that post in here have had bad experiences with nitro. I cant say I have, but Im glad I went with electric over nitro. My local track doesnt allow nitro lol.

 

I have never had any issues with any of my nitro r/cs. All it takes to tune an nitro engine is a little patience.

 

i bet 90% of the people on here lack that trait lol

 

I feel like nitros have more drawbacks than electric.. Mainly just the whole simplicity factor. Maybe I suck at tuning them. I dunno. I hate how mine always dies or flips and I have to go running after it.

 

I have a T-maxx, I've had it for about 9 years. I would trade it for an E-maxx in a heartbeat just to get rid of having to deal with nitro anymore.

 

I like the specs on the second one that mbjtaco posted last paige. At only $19.00 bucks that's just icing. I have no experience with that brand, but there is so much new stuff out there now. I don't worry about speed in a servo, I mean whats the difference between 1/15 of a second and 1/8 of a second? Torque is what I look at mostly, duel ball bearings, coreless motors, metal gears, and of course digital.

 

Seems more and more tracks are banning nitro, mostly due to noise.

 

I've heard of ppl using helicopter servos. I heard they're awesome!
Anybody using them?

It's gonna be so hard to keep myself from buying one of these...

 

The one i posted has a heli equivalent. The h6040.

 

Why hold yourself back? If you can afford it, go for it! They're really not that expensive when compared to the Hpi buggy.

If everything goes as planned, at work, i'm buying the HPI buggy.

The EZ start is lighting up, but nothing is happening when I try to start the car.
