Best Servo Under £80
 
I'm looking for a servo that I can use in both 2 and 4WD, there seems to be a huge choice out there. The reading I've been doing seems to suggest the Savox 1258TG as a good choice in the under £80 price bracket, am I on the right track or am I missing something obvious?

Thanks.

You can get a Futaba BLS451 from UK stock for that budget. You won't regret it.

Take a look at the Highest range of servo's ,i got the blue one,and very happy with its fast travel and no servo chatter at all at centre/end points.

I'll give the Xpert RC SN-3401 brushless servo the thumbs up.
Speed and torque are fantastic (both better than a savox 1257/8), it's super responsive, less power hungry then savox and plays a tune when you power it up.

I got mine at xmas for my 4wd, and would certainly get another.

Thank you for the thoughts.

One further consideration, I need to be able to easily get hold of a servo saver for whichever one I buy as many of my vintage racers don't have built in units.

Xpert RC servos use the Futaba spline, so any standard Kimbrough will fit.

I agree with sosidge. I have been using savox servos, mostly the sc1251mg in tenth and 1257/1258tg in 8th, they are great but then I bought a futaba bls451. The servo is absolutely silent and centres straight every time. when used with my futaba fasst radio on hi response mode the reaction is seemingly instant, also when you get to the bottom of the plastic tub it comes in there are 2 very snazzy gold metal stickers that say brushless motor which look smart.
