Hi everyone I need a new servo for my vintage yoke that I want to run, looking for somthing half decent that's not gonna cost me the earth.

Thanks in advance

Budget? I really like the absima combat servos, and they are good value...

I don't really way to spend more than £50 on one but I'm open to anything really

I've had the Turnigy 1256TG for over a year with no issues. £22.00. Races most weekends with my fair share of crashes!

You rarely see any bad reviews about them. It's essentially a rebranded Savox 1256, just half the price.

Savox 1257tg is only £42 at MB Models; I've had one in my 2WD for two years with no issues (no servo saver and plenty of offs!) and have just bought one for a 4WD.

0.07 and 10kgs torque with metal gears.

Lots say they can be power hungry; noticed a VERY occasionally twitch with an old speed passion 2.0 LPF speedo, never caused me any problems when racing. I've since upgraded to a team Orion ESC and never ever had an issue.

That looks the sort of thing I'm after, what's the sort of delivery time if you know from the international where house?

It does depend, but as it happens its generally been pretty good with stuff from Hobbyking, usually about 1-2 weeks.

They've usually got them at the UK Warehouse but out of stock. They have plenty of other servos at the UK Warehouse: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_listCategoriesAndProducts.asp?cwhl=GB&idCategory=291&v=&sortlist=P&LiPoConfig=&CatSortOrder=asc

They've got the 1257TG in stock: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__29505__Turnigy_1257TG_Digital_Titanium_Gear_Serv o_57g_10_5kg_09sec_UK_Warehouse_.html it's a little slower but has more torque.

Try x pert servos as good and better in some of the models then ko-pro and a lot cheaper think lee Martin runs or ran them and mark Reinhard so can't be bad

Xpert 4431 is the one we use and are brilliant servos which fanstastic support too
