Are we just using these servo's because of the metal gears, to avoid using servo savers? Or are we using them because we are advised to use them by retailer's, and we are getting sucked in?
Well............. all I know is that back before we had high-pwrd/high-torque servos we all carried spares in our pitboxes as you'd never know when you'd blow one out. Nowadays, I can't remember the last time I did. And servo savers sucked.
