I had one for throttle and brake and it was strong like 200 oz. of torque. But as I was running in the rain and rain puddles it got full of water and then took it's last breath and died. I could not wait for another one to arrive so I went to the LHS and bought a JR sport MGear 142oz. of torque for 33 dollars it lasted about a year and just died on me last night. I just put another one in it does a good job I use it for throttle, front cable brake & rear stock brake for my Monster Beetle.

having a powerfull servo and not using it near its limits means it lasts.
ive tried 4 different types now, spent £100s.
not had a problem with the tg's.

Both my servos are hitech, my steering is a 1/4 scale titanium gear, 273 oz, my throttle/brake is titanium gear 333oz, both are digital and ball bearing, let me tell you digital is definatly the way to go, for both of these servos they are about 200$ US. 115 for the throttle, 75 for the steering.
