Matty's running them, he says there the dogs danglers
I used mine for the first time at the petit race in my 4wd, was very noisy and tight at first but then it "bedded" in. Was awesome after that, smooth, fast and they have alot of torque. I would never go back to KO!

A few people on maxbashing use them, they all think there good, but most believe there just a rebadged align aircraft servo. Also the align ones are cheaper aswell.

Hi guys. I bought the Savox 1258 (12kg version) to replace the old KO713 in my XXX-CR. Only used it once so far, but really pleased with it. Yeah, it's a bit noisy but once it's on the track you can't hear it of course. Definitely recommend them based on my experience so far.

I've got the 12kg in my cat sx. Seems noisy, but first time I've had a digital servo so not got anything to compare with. Glad people like them.

Just seen where these are made! I'll be working about half a mile from the factory come the week after next so I'll call in and see if they have a couple of cosmetic defect ones at bargain prices! Good timing too, as I just pooped the gears on my first servo.

Oh :thumbsup:
They are good, I wouldn't be running them if I didn't think they were any good.
Can't say I noticed them being noisy though.
They are faster and seem more precise than the KO ones I took out.

Back on topic, as Ellis has siad they are fantactic, both high performance and good value for money, we now have most of our X-Factory team here in the UK using them since we were that impressed by the specs alone never mind the cost.

Same performance spec, but I was led to believe that the Align ones dont use the titanium gears that the Savox ones have.....

I just ordered one, but got the 20kg torque model (it was free postage), does that make any difference? Got to be better than the horrid bog standard £6.99 jobbie I got now..........

Now with the power issue sorted, and the soon-to-be-added ability to go round corners, all I need to do now is not crash. Easier said than done.........

KT10421TA - DS620 Digital Servo (12kg/0.08sec)
Are they quick on postage?, Sussex Model Helecopters?
Are they to DMS / MKracing standards :D
Would it be any good in an 8th scale? - Or am i best off with the stronger Savox one thats 20Kg, 0.15sec?

Make sure you order the ds 610 as they have the specs the wrong way round. The ds610 is the 12kg one and the 620 is 10kg but faster. I ordered mine from sussex and they came next day and free postage. I have ran mine twice now and so far so good in my 1/8th scale. You can always buy the 20kg gear set to turn it into the 20kg version if you strip the gears as thats the only difference.
