JR z9100s. Why? It's an advantage over most servos of the line.
180 oz/in @ 6V
.06 sec / 60 degrees @ 6V

JR DS 8711 Why?Because its a Beast!
403 oz/in @ 6V
.15 sec/60° @ 6V
Fasst

I like the JR 9100T for steering and the 9100S for throttle/brake

The servo hat has my eye right now is the Hitec HS 7950 TH, titanuim gear, high volts, like 400in-oz torque capable of more than 480 at 7.2V. Even Monster Kong wheels do not stand a change against that servo! And put two of them together in a dual steering servo configuration? Forget about it!

I am sewiously considering buying a pair of them to install into my 5th scale.

JR Z590M, Dual Steering Set-up. Losi LST XXL. Plenty of power for me.

SERVO Airtronics 94773M ERG-WX Digital Hi-Torque MG/BB- Z for throttle and break. nothing but SERVO Airtronics 94780M MG Digital High-Power Z-Conn works for me and thats 423 oz at 6 volt Jim..................I think there getting dangerous with these servo's and there torque. Will probably hear about someone breaking a finger or getting pinched till they bleed pretty soon [:@]

Steering - PPP 208 oz. in. servo. Only cost me $16 a piece and they work AWESOME!!! I've run them underwater, on hard to turn applications, and without servo savers and never have had a problem!!!! Best servo for the buck available, period!

Throttle - I could care less what it is, just so long as it's digital.
