Default Servo or no?

If I buy a brand new NTC3+ RTR and swap the AM standard radio with an FM one (like the Airtronics MX3), would you all suggest I also buy and swap the servos too, or can I just buy the radio (MX3) and plug the current servos (that come installed in the car already from the AM radio) into the MX3 Receiver?

If I do buy servos with the MX3 to replace the existing ones, would you suggest I get one that is ESC (what exactly is that anyway)?

Thanx!

The servos are interchaingable.. so no worries.

that's not a servo.. that's an Electronics Speed Control.
That would be for the TC3 not the NTC3

Hope this helps

Thank you both for the replies...

So, to clarify: all servos can plug into AM or FM receivers from all brands, right?

What (2) servos (steering and throttle) would you all recommend I buy with my Airtronics MX3 to go into my NTC3+?

Thanx again,

Caleb
