decent servo for a good price......yes you can spend alot more for more TQ and speed but this is the most economical in my books

Torque is your friend, for speed under .18sec is as slow as one should go. So a .14sec 180oz.in should do nicely, even more so if you go digital.

anyone using this servo and and will it plug right in http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXUZ89&P=ML

It will plug right in and the specs look good for torque with a little slow .20sec but should work just fine. The Hitec 625MG has a little less torque 94oz.in with little more speed, either of these servos will do just fine and are about the same price. HILLFINGER recommended a great servo which costs a little more but worth every penny, that servo will last a lifetime.

yeah i just want mine to turn fasteri have the 2055 will the Hitec 625MG work better for me

systemlord

Yes the Hitec 625MG servo is great for the budgut price it comes with and the .15 sec speed is fast. My brother uses the Hitec 625MG on his 10 pound truck and it works great for him. Get the Hitec 625MG, you aren't going to find a better servo for the price!
