was looking for opinions on a steering servo for the blackfoot? any recommendation for how fast or how much torque the servo should have?

Be aware that Tamiya servo savers don't fit 24T (Hitec) servos.

I'd suspect that any high torque, metal gear servo should work.

Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Was wondering if anyone had a steering servo recommendation? I was thinking either a savox 1256 or 1258. Or is there another one to consider?

Last post

I'm running the Savox SC-1257TG in my Super XXT. It has plenty of torque and is twitchy fast.

If you're just gonna backyard run it and not race the Hitec 32645S HS-645MG was great in the 90s and still is.

I think I trashed my stock one today, I am going to pull it all apart tomorrow. Anyone have any suggestions for a beefed up steering servo for a RC10T4.1? Thanks in advance.

Here's my low profile servo setup:

I think my GWS servos are a bit better though.

Hey guys,

Just resurrecting my XX and it seems my original Futaba S132 has finally given up. Just wondering what current servos are you guys using in your XXs? Thanks.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a good steering servo for a Rc10T3. I have Dirt Hawg II's on the front. Right now I am running a Hpi SF-1 servo out of my savage x and it doesn't move them as fast and strong as I would like. Any suggestions on a servo?...

Some things to consider like was mentioned is your steering end points. In the old days you simply remove the servo saver and put all radio settings in the middle. Turn the car on and servo would go to its neutral position. Reinstall the servo...

I have several RC10 buggy builds that I'm in the process of outfitting with electronics. These 10's will never be raced, merely tested and shelf'd. I'm looking for a smaller Futaba servo or equivalent that would fit nicely in the chassis and still...

Hi
I remember using a couple of Futaba S-132's when we first got our RC10's. They were faster, .13 seconds but really not enough torque to race offroad. We burned a few out also. The size is smaller and will work on an outdoor offroad track for demo...

The losi 22t 2.0 is so advanced that it doesnt have any type of servo saver and i have gone through all my old plastic gear spares. Can you guys recommend a tough metal gear servo? I dont necessarily need a powerful servo,just a tough one. I had a...

I also recommend the Hitec 645MG series. The 5645MG is good too, I think the 5 denotes digital. The 645 is affordable too at around $35.

The Savos 1257TG is good too, and has titanium gears. These are about twice the price of the Hitec.

I have 2 or 3 servo mounts and linkage in my parts box that came with my truck. I was going to use them to put a steering servo in my truck with them. But after looking at the instructions they say to only use double sided sticky tape. That would...

here's the rpm servo mounting posts:

I prefer anodized aluminum servo arms, on metal geared servos, with no servo saver on vintage vehicles.
