I have the micro and 9 gram servos and they all work great.
I think some people use the servo as a badge of honor. See how great i am, i have this unubtainium geared servo with moon dust case cnced in micro gravity and it can use 5.0v to 2200v, has a speed of .0000000001 for 60 degrees at 400v and puts out 6 metric tons of torque with a .0000000002 dead band.
I do have to laugh at some of the post that say a 60 sized plane's elevator needs at least 150 ounces of torque. I look back and see how long i flew with my kraft servos that on their best day put out 40 ounces and the stock standard servo put out 42 ounces.
