Default Single servo steering w. stock radio?

Hey there I have just one simple question. Can i run a single servo steering setup with the stock radio on a revo 3.3? Just wondering cause I dont have enough money to upgrade the servo and radio yet. If so what servo should I use?

yes it will work with the stock radio, try the 5645 servo from hitec, i think it costs like fifty bucks and has 160oz. of torque.

I run a single servo with the stock radio. I used a JR ST125MG. It has 142 oz 2 6.0 volts, and is working well!!!!

The TG is a digital servo.... I think it will work but you wont see the benifits of digital intill you upgrade the radio....

Also 333oz??? geeze!!!! thats a beefy servo!

I didn't know the radio mattered. It seems to me that as long as the RX and TX are talking, it doesn't matter what servo you use. Yes, there are issues with the speed of the signal, but it should work.

Almost everyone I know (with a Revo) uses a single steering servo. All are around 200 oz/in of torque.
