The Bluebirds fit a Futaba horn.

The Acoms will probably prove to be fine for bashing, I would run it until it breaks, but you will find that the quality of a basic Futaba is a step up although not necessarily a great deal faster or torquier.

Futaba do do a metal gear servo that is a shade faster and torquier than a standard one for £20, called the S3010, personally speaking that would be the limit I would go to unless I wanted to spend £70!

I have used the S3003 in touring and buggy before, in touring it is fine, in buggy is is maybe a little bit weak for racing, probably fine for bashing. Futaba also do the S3004 which is a ballraced version of the S3003 so should be a little faster and smoother and last longer without wear.

This is just my recommendation of course, I am sure you will find plenty of people who will sing the praises of Bluebird, bit I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole!
