I have used both JR 8611 and Hitech 5955 titanium gear. The servos are the same price around $ 115 retail each. They both perform well. Either is a good choice. For those who bash hitech on the high end, I think you are missing a great performing servo with tons of programming. Forget the match box and reversed servos and end points all these are programmable on the hitech.
My 2 cents
I'm with you Kevin. I am a Hitec believer. My TJ F-16 came with 9411's. Poor holding torque and speed. Switch to HS-5965MG's and for the same price I gained 30oz of torque and about .1sec speed.
The 5995TG at 6.0V is hard to beat for power and speed, except for the JR 8717's which I own two and it is damn fast!
