How good are these servo's compared to others in the same price range, torque and speed??

There are no other servos in the same price/torque/speed range.

Aside from that they are, IMHO, a perfect alternative to analog high-torgue servos in the 25%-scale range. Any larger aircraft I would be looking at the HS-59XX servos, which differ from these by having coreless motors.

I have a total of 10 of these servos. Out of my 1st batch of 5, which I installed on a Hanger 9 73" Cap 232, I ended up with one bad servo that failed on the bench. I've had no problems with any others. I do, however, burn my servos in with my Hitec Programmer. I run them on an average of 15 minutes at the highest speed and furthest deflection. If the servo is going to fail it will during this test. This burn-in is not necessary but, do to the failure of the 1st one, gives me a warm fuzzy.
