PS-701
Torque: 47.2 oz-in
Speed: 0.30 sec/60°

PS-201
Torque: 50.0 oz-in
Speed: 0.30 sec/60°

Ratings at 6.0v
Pretty darn close. Both are older, slower servos with very similar specs so I'd go with whichever one is in better condition.

I’m restoring/building a losi xxt. Light runner....maybe...as I am new to this Modern electronics, i was wondering what would be recommended for the steering servo. When looking at a main, looks like a bunch of different sizes, torque. It’s been 20...

Hitec 645mg will do u good in your application. For more demanding running stick with savox 1257 or 1258. Savox 1251 low profile if space is an issue.

I have been looking at small high-speed servos lately to replace some of my older ones and I have a question. Why, in this era of Lipo batteries—which isn’t new, are servo manufacturers still using the 4.8v and 6.0v speed and torque standard?...

Last post

Airtronics servos are still as sharp as ever. Getting hard to find parts for them though. Airtronics 94145 is still the best 1/12 scale servo I have ever used.

Finishing up a partially built 12L4 I snagged on ebay and I planned on putting in a Futaba S3002 metal gear servo. The problem is, the metal spline has really fine threads and a really short screw. The screw is long enough to mount a horn but not a...

Last post

that was a great deal on that L4, I almost bid on it but I want a link car so I can run Lipo. Are you going to come out to Thunder to run it?

Yea, it was thanks. The seller was a little careless and didn't bother to bag the rest of the small...

I know it seems like a dumb question but does anyone actually use servo tape to mount a servo?

I'm looking for other ways to mount a servo because I am running out of real estate.

Last post

Yeah I've moved on from it on my servo. I've come with a couple things that make eleviate some space.

I'll stick with it on my esc and RX.

What's up guys. Been while since I posted. Got back to working on my 10Ts and need some advice on a few ideas. Can anyone offer a good metal gear servo to put in the trucks? And looking to change the gear ratio in the tranny (at least that's what I...

So do the new metal gear servos no longer require Servo savers?

Last post

I took my time before sending my S6240 Spektrum in for warranty but a mere 3 weeks after sending it in I got it back.
No more rattles!!! Horizon sent me a new servo. I haven't even put the cap back on the receiver yet. Works great.

What servo you guys running these days? My old back yard cars ran futaba s148 and jr nes507. Looking for an upgrade to digital and w some more speed without dropping $100 for a back yard car.

Would like to hear from racers and back yard guys alike.

I like the Savox 1258TG.

I have the plain yellow one, a Black edition, just ordered a Ryan Cavaleri version.

Just ordered 2 of these and I have to say for the price that are awesome. I will be equipping more of my cars with these servos as...
