Comments: Very good servo. Just a pity about the pathetic servo arms shipped with servo. With servo mounted on side the servo arms barely extend past the servo. This forces a person to buy longer servo arms which are expensive.

Comments: USE WITH SAVOX SC1252MG FOR THE THROTTLE. GOOD STEERING RESPONSE ON A LONG TRACK WITH WIDE CORNERS

Comments: Replaced 1258tg servo with this one in my Slash 4x4 and it works like a charm. Fast enough for tracks I've been in and good torque. Also using this one in my SCX10. No complains.
