Default High Torque Servos....

Hi all, Hope the weekend is great for all!!
I have been looking to "maybe" get some hi torque servos
85+ ounces-inches.. I have look at a few.. But..........
Would anyone have suggestions on "cheaper-better" ones??
Just trying to save some $$$$, If there are some that are
better than junk..... I know:-(
Is it better to go to a 6v battery also with Hi torq. servos..
Will the 4.8 last atleast 3 flights??
Have a Great Day!!

Try these servos:

Great price for high-torque servos. I have some on order but have not tried them.

4.8v will last at least 3 (10min) flights. 6.0V will give you better response & torque but not necessarily longer flight time.

I recently put four of the new Futaba 3305s in my Funtana. They are 30something$ each. They have 90oz with a 4.8v and 120 with a 6v. They are metal geared. I hade 9201s which are a little more prcise but are heavier,slower&weaker.

I like my Hitec-645MG's (Metal Gear) they are rated at 107 @ 4.8 and 133 oz. @ 6V- The 4.8 will actually last longer in flight time since the 6V draws more current-

These 645's are $39.99-

Take care-
James

Hey thanks all... I was just trying to save some $$$$$.. But I know
the saying... I guess I just have to save longer... Was going to use
these on a Funtana 90/YS 110... But the price is a little higher than
I need to go right now...
