Googling based on the KS-91 model number vaguely suggests this is a Kyosho servo but no specs or official reference can be found anywhere for a Kyosho KS-91 servo.

After opening the servo up I know why...the branding on the chip and serial numbers on all the parts reveal this "Kyosho" KS-91 is a re-branded Hitec HS-300.

Good to know that they're hitec-based (although the HS300 isn't much of a benchmark, really!) :) Actually I believe these were sold with the kyosho Pulsar Tx... Maybe I should open mine up to check whether it was Hitec-based as I always thought it came from the Sanwa plant...

Comparable to a Futaba S3003...bit less torque but slightly faster.


Was asked by a member here if this slipper eliminator was produced by Barracuda but I have no idea....can anyone say, is it is or is it ain't?

Yup, saw that. :wink: Doesn't seem to be any notches for the drive pin on that one on eBay though.

This car came along with a job lot of cars/parts i got recently and i have no idea what it is. Seems to be an unusual rear motored touring car type.

Anyone have any ideas?

Good idea, but unfortuantely (or fortunately :wink: ) I have better candidates for both.

Still not sure what to do with it though, it's missing quite a few bits, so it might not be worth the effort/cost in hunting for parts.
