welcome in spektrum world!!
what a friggin troll. specktum had nothing to do with his crashes.
JR 821 are not high end servos....
High price doesnt mean the best.
The best servos on the market should be by brand but what is offerent in them.
To me the best servos are ones that have a brushless motor and magnetic encoding for the "pot". these should work the same forever barring gear changes. These are offered from JR, Futaba and Bluebird from HK ( 100 dollars or so).
All electronics can fail at any given time. most all electronics are built by humans or have a human factory in them. Us humans fail more offten than the electronics.
I have a couple of guys at the field and they use nothing but HK servos and batteries. Thye only buy the Blue Bird servos though. The ones I have seen come with better equipment than higher priced servos. some come with aluminuim horns that are thick and pre tapped for ball links. The Hitec aluminum horn is very weak..
