Status: offline 		Ok, now back in our topic. You said that i need a high torque servo for steering. How much torque exactly? And how much speed? Also, the throttle/brake servo you said needs a good speed. 0.13 is ok? How much torque did that servo will need?

Status: offline 		not much torque needed for the throttle, and brake. The faster the better in racing, since not much power is needed for the carb. This should be a perfect servo for your steering http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXRJS4&P=0 and for the throttle, take a look at this one http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXRJS5&P=0

Thanks man, but as i told before, i can't buy Futabas. I wish i could. Untill then, i'm stack with Hitecs. Can you give me some good servos for that job?

Status: offline 		well no. i just asked him and told me what he uses on his lola and he uses a kopropo torque servo with 0.15s speed. search for a hitec with the same spects but get it with titanium gears.

Status: offline 		Titanium gears? What is the matter? Too expensive. I get so far and i will stand back because of a 100 euro servo?No sir. How much torque that KoPropo has? Oh, and the most important. Did that guy finish any good position in a race before? Oh, and where did he uses this servo? Steering or throtle/brake?

Status: offline 		KO Propo makes awesome servos btw, so if you can get those, go for that instead of futaba. I would, but they are nearly double for a similar servo, for 1/12 electric.

Status: offline 		No, i don't think so. I have this brand problem dude. I don't want to have ANY problems. Everything that will be put in that Evolva will be TOP brand. Don't think that the OS will stack there a long time. Once i finish with that, i'll buy a Novarossi or a Sirio for sure [)]

Status: offline 		osiris dont worry about the man!!! he is number ONE in the expert 1/10 scale cars and had a dessent 4th place on his first race with his lola, but there was a problem with timing so the race was cancelled....
also hitec doesnt charge you extra for the titanium gears, its in the same price as everything else....i have too for my steering servo

Status: offline 		osiris, if anything, hitec will give you the problems, because i found their top servos to be very weak, and lasted me a month or less, i had a top quality $120 servo, in my buggy from them, and honestly it sucked. KO Propo is the best you can buy, so i dont see why you dont think that they are the best.

Status: offline 		What do you mean weak? There are plenty kind of hitec servos. I saw on youtube a 5995TG hitec servo lift a banch of metals. About the servo you burnt (right?) on your buggy, maybe it was just a wrong adjustment dude. My hitec never give up and i have it about a year now. I stick with Hitec. If i find problems, then no problem, i will change brand but i must first see these symptoms. Experience is all i want!!! [)] I don't have problem with "problems". They just rise my experience up

Status: offline 		Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to servos. I would use any servo with over 8KG of torque for steering, which may seem like not that much to some people, but I prefer higher speeds rather than torque. Some people use the same servo in throttle and steering as its easier to keep spares for both (you only need one, unlike one spare of each). And alot of people only use analogue servos in throttle as digitals drain too much power and it can be easy to fry them by keeping them in one position straining for too long (failsafe, or incorrectly set end points). I personally use Sanwa servos as they seem to last a long time and are relatively easy for me to pick up. I know alot of the USA guys use airtronics.

But here is some advice - don't blow your hole budget on the car, radio gear and engine. You will still need after you have bought all of that a personal transponder, INS filter (depending on the track), starter box, 12V charger, tyre truer, power supply, tyres, bodyshells, setup station, new tools etc. These things can mount up pretty quickly.
