for the money it should be fine. seems to have good feedback from users on there which is the main thing.

this should be better than an RTR servo, but obviously not as quick as the likes of £50+ savox and KO. For a newcomer to racing it looks ideal.

cheers for that, i will let you know how it performs as i just ordered one

Operating Speed : 0.16sec/60o
This servo was really slow :thumbdown:
If I'm you i will continue this the RTR servo and wait to buy from Savox or futaba, there are realy better.

i bought a servox 1257 tg, when it is not in the car its fine, but as soon as i get it in the car ready to go the servo starts making a high pitch noise constantly, can anyone help me out with this annoying problem?

cheers

Yeah they are always noisy unfortunately. Not much you can do about it. Only thing I would suggest is making sure the servo is not straining at the endpoints. Just knock the endpoints down on your transmitter if you can.

cheers robbie

is yours noisy when its just at the centre point, ie not in use?

my 1258 and low profile both make a buzzing sound, i think its just cus it thinks there is a tiny load on the arm possibly?

[billyboy9002]

it seems that as soon as i unclip the arm from the servo saver it stops, very strange, will see how it performs tomorrow, cheers guys
