servo help
 
wondering what is a good servo to use on my ax10? I've had it for a little over a year and replaced the stock servo with a futaba s3305 when the stock gears wore out on the first day. JUNK servo. The futaba is starting to get weak and not turn when bounded. Any sugg. would be great.

are you running a BEC at 6 volts? this will drastically improve your servo performance.

Servo getting weak? never heard of that. Are you using the stock axial ESC? if so then that is the problem not your servo. The stock ESc does not give enough power for the servo and motor when bound up.
