The MG995's are from TowerPro/Hextronics in China.

There are or were several variants of these servos.

The latest is the MG995R's

These are fairly strong standard servos.

I don't know where the info about the gears "being to heavy for the motor" came from as the servos are rated for 10KG/CM of force... or 138oz/in. There is NO WAY the gears are "too heavy for the motor" if the effective torque is in this range ( which I have tested ).

In opening them up, I find nothing flimsy about the wiring, though I did see a discussion here about some having poor junction solder points. That may have changed.

Jester_S1 have you tried them?

I have used about 24 so far with great results.

goirish you may also want to check out the HD servos in this torque range. They are also now being sold in the U.S. by companies such as Troy Built and Chief Aircraft. I use these on my 50cc planes and above....

BTW: I've used the MG995R's on 50cc planes as well... I put them on my 50cc CMP Edge 540T.

The plane will SCREETCH when I perform a hard pullup at speed, or a hard roll at speed as there is no blowback on the large surfaces.
