Right now I have a stock emaxx and the steering is horible I was wondering what a good servo would be for under $130. And when I am shoping what kind of torque(number) should I be looking for (for example above 200) and will it be able to turn the wheels on the ground.

A Hitec 5955TG is pretty much the most powerful servo you can get. It has Titanium gears, 333oz of torque at 6V, and a .15 transit time at 6V. I have also heard of people running it on 7.2/7.4volts, which then gives it 417oz of torque. However, 333 is plenty.

This is what I have on my G2R and had on my E-Maxx. It turns the wheels very easily. On my E-Maxx, it would get the wheels half way to lock when I was at a dead stop. But the second I moved it would go to full lock almost instantly.

On my G2R it will go lock to lock at a dead stop on every surface I have driven on except deep grass, where it doesnt quite make it all the way there.

I highly recommend this servo.

Amen. That servo will turn the wheels with authority.

Yea, it will turn the wheels no problem, BUT you need something like a Proline servo saver or a UE servo saver or it will just wind out the stocker...

The prolines are, like the powerstrokes, obselete.. You need Ebay to get them.

Yea....I don't get Proline...They discontinue the BEST stuff they ever made...

Totally agree with you squee.

they are in for the money, and not for the hobby.
