It's a cheap servo for a reason.

Plus points.
Strong, metal gears
Cheap

Negative points
Slower than advertised on the specification (IMO)
Overshoots neutral by some distance before returning.

It may be OK for bashing, but used as a steering or throttle servo under race conditions, it'll drive you mad.
