I drove a car with one in it last year, and not only was it slow but it was also so lacking in any guts/torque that it made the car all but undriveable. I found it hard to believe we existed with those old Futaba servos back in the day.
There are so many better options available today, and for comparatively little more funds, that I'd suggest choosing literally anything else.
Yea I know it's what I used when I last raced and in reflection the servo is one of the cheapest things I'm going to be buying I suppose I'm trying to save money where isn't needed saying that tho I may keep the one I currently have in the second car as it won't be used alot (ill only be able to make meets 1/3 weeks

I know my build is relatively cheap with getting 2 chassis kits for 110gbp so after electrics I'm looking at a sub 300gbp (just) car each that said I still need battery's I believe around 15-30gbp each for lipos and a decent charger. I'm thinking 3batterys a car? (Or that's what I used to have)
