I checked in just to see if there was any activity on the forum and to my surprise, some old members popped up -- had not seen Combatpigg for some time. I don't care for the HS-55, not because of available torque, but because it seems to shed teeth like a drunk in a bar fight. A ground thump or hanger bump and you may lose or crack a tooth, only to find out too late. For the smaller servos, I've gone exclusively to metal gear. They're heavier by about a tenth of an ounce, but I don't have to worry about a gear train breakage. I've had good results from the EMAX ES08MA II. The unbranded version can be had for next to nothing with a little shopping around.
