    Application(s): 1/8 scale buggy

    Comments: I've had this hs-5985mg servo for 8 years now. It's served as a 1/8 buggy steering servo as well 1/8 buggy disc brakes. I also have been unable to break it, nor has it ever had a failed bearing or stripped gears... Centers perfect just like the day I bought it with zero slop! I race, so I'm very picky about servos...Best servo I've ever owned period! Seriously

    Comments: Servo does a great job. Good torque, good speed and not too tough on batteries.
