Servos

I've noticed that many people in the club seem to be unaware of a lot of the sweet new available out there.  Some of these are:

Micro:  Hitec HS-65 - plastic (HB) or metal gears (MG) -- small strong and fairly quick

Mini: TS-35 (Tower Hobbies)  At $20 this thing can't be beat for strength or speed.  I however haven't heard any anecdotal experience about this servo.

There are some truely INSANE full size servos available today.  Many run "High Voltage" or around 8v rather than the usual 5v so they can be more efficient and produce tons of torque and still be very fast.  Many of these have 60degree transit times of 0.07sec or less and torques around 300ozin.

 

If anyone is looking for something specific in a servo, chances are that it's out there.  I'm more than willing to help people select great servos to use in their boats and with my experience with RC helis putting them through the wringer I generally know which servos are great and which are garbage.
