Default RE: Jet servo's?

I am not sure why jet guys have the perception that the Hitec 5955s are cheap servos. They retail for $115 a pop. Most IMAC/3D pilots I know use them in their $10k 40% planes because they have no slop and product a lot of power. Plus a 40% aerobatic plane has more more load on the control surface than any jet while doing an advance to unlimited IMAC sequence. These guys trust their 5955s. I had a 40% Composite-ARF fitted with 8611s and every control surface had slop. I've seen sloppy surfaces develop from 8611s on every giant scale aircraft that I've competed with I'm not a big fan of other Hitec servos, but the 5955 is top notch.
