What steveproracing said is my experience with savöx in a 410 too.
I think the Savöx servos are cheaper for a reason. I went through two or three on my 410 in less than a year, had issues with stripping gears, once I'd got that sorted I then had brown out issues with my radio (probably as I needed a monster servo!) when that broke I bought a second hand bls451. Which did sterling service for a year until the motor burnt out (it'd already done a very full season in someone's 8th nitro road car before I got it, so not surprising, and it was cheap, £30 ish)
Now have a highest servo in there, that's not missed a beat since it went in. Bought two more when MB had their sale running.
Also worth bearing in mind that it's a half hour job to change a servo in a 410 (I got good at it!) so a failure might take you nearly an hour to sort at a race, with marshalling duties and so on.
To be fair, I have got a BIG savöx in my 8th, but that's running 4s (so no brown outs) and would have cost me the thick end of £120.........
And carpet is really grippy, so more servo loads, tighter servo saver and more risk of hitting really solid stuff (as you are indoors)
