Default spektrum DX2s questions

Bought a sketrum Dx2s for my new revo project. seems like a great system.

it came with a spektrum S100 heavy duty servo. could i put that to use? would it be an upgrade from the revo's stock servo(throtle?)

also has anyone else ever set this system up? if so do you have pics on how you mounted the Telemetey sensors.

I am not sure how to set your radio up but I think the spektrum servo is better than your throttle servo. I cant find any specs for the servo in the exploded views but the spektrum servo is about the same as a 2075. If your not to worried about being waterproof I would install the spektrum as steering and your traxxas steering as throttle. Here is a comparison between the S100 and the 2075.

spektrum
steel gears
Torque: 123 oz-in @ 6V
Speed: 0.19 sec/60° @ 6V

Traxxas
plastic gears
Torque: 125 oz-in
Speed: 0.16 sec @ 60°

I cant find the specs at tower for the 2056 so they are probably hard to get. Because the spektrum is steel gears and the 2075 is plastic (which I assume is your steering) I would switch them and install the 2075 as the throttle. I think that should work well considering that the 2075 is faster than the spektrum which should offer better throttle response and be better than the 2056.
