Neu/Castle Hitec BL Servos?

[BrianG]

According to Hitec, they said that most servos rate their torque at stall, whereas these are not. So those 600 oz-in servos may in reality be closer in performance to these 486 oz-in BL servos.

And about the reduced current draw: I think it's nice because a lesser BEC can be used. The people with BEC issues on a MMPro using regular servos probably won't even notice a glitch with these since they don't draw nearly as much.

I already run my 7980s on 7.8v I believe and it makes a difference in both speed and power, I was hoping you could do the same to these. With a CCbec input voltage is requlated anyway. The only time power should vary is running a receiver pack which in my opinion should be a thing of the past.

BrianG if I had $150 just floating around I'd do some real world testing of the 7950 equivalent to the 7980, see how it compares. I can stall the later reasonably easily on the high grip rock I crawl on.

This sounds promising for my 4s MMP setup.
I like the idea of it staying at a constant V

I just wish the cases were clear so I could see the little green monster motors inside doin their thing. Can't wait to see some prices and get some feedback.

It's actually a tiny little silver monster... :)

They do have hall sensors.

Damn, I need two of these now. The crawler guys will be thanking you Patrick!

[Pdelcast]

These really are AMAZING servos.

In need of beta testers? My super crawler needs some muscle. My 7980s are a bit weak lol

Does this mean the little silver monsters are the begining of a cc sensored motor line? That would be awesome!

Might as well, right Pdelcast?

Does anyone know if these are still coming out this month.

[TexasSP]

I hope so. Been holding off on new servos waiting for these.

I think this servo would be perfect for the truck I'm building. Hey what part of town are you in Texassp?

[kingdomracer]

They were mentioned in Buggy & Truggy mag Vol. 3
I've been holding out for these too and wouldn't mind them getting here soon.

North in the Tomball/Spring area.
