They look a lot like the TowerPro MG995 servos that I reviewed a while back.
Bottom line -- there are better value MG servos out there -- the TowerPro units suffer from a *lot* of overshoot and resulting jitter around neutral. Their quality of assembly is also lacking which will reduce reliability. I've had one failure out of the six I've tested so far.
