So where is the "Yes I have had JR 8411 failure" button. I would have checked it many times if it were listed and it was an option. So right out the gate the pole is skewed as those who have voted were not given a chance to share the experience with this specific servo.

The thing is as Marc pointed out the 8411 is the 5945's counterpart in the scheme of things. The 8611 is new school, supposedly all the bugs have been worked out that were in the 8411.

When Hitec's Titanium geared HS5995TG hits the market it could be compared to the low powered DS8611 I suppose........

In the end these are all good products.
