I'm looking to upgrade the servos in my LSP truggy. right now I've just got 2
JR 650s and they are okay. Im looking to upgrade without breaking my bank. Suggestions for Steering and Throttle Brake? Im kinda looking for some more speed on both, without sacrificing strength.
Thanks in advance. Also...if you have used servos of good types for the afformentioned things. feel free to drop me a PM with a nice price.

I would say a JR 9000t on steering and a 9000s on throttle/brake. I have the S on steering in my buggy, its a nice servo.
Or look at Futaba, I can't remember the numbers, but they make good servos too.

go with ace or futaba. Ace if you have bad luck because they will replace the servo for free. also what raido system are you running?

futaba 9350 or 9351's
Personally I would keep the 650's, sell the spectrum radio, upgrade your radio and use that set at the faster settings which will give you what you want.

JR650's are powerfull and decently fast (they seem faster than the rated .17sec)
If the steering is REALLY slow then the servo is about shot. I bet JR would replace it free of charge.
At this point I would buy a Futaba 9350, throw that on steering and send in the current jr650z steering servo for replacement/repair.
Keep the other 650 on throttle for now.....

I like Spektrum Tech, or 2.4 GHZ what have you. What kind of jack am I looking at If I were to upgrade?
Anybody know the prices on those Futaba Servos? And whatever Radio is good now days thats around 200 dollars and is 2.4 ghz.
I think the Servo may be about shot it was used when I got it and I have NO idea what condition it is in. I was thinking the whole time im driving it "My Revo has more steering than this" I will consider getting the Futaba steering and leaving the 650 on throttle. only reason I ask about a better throttle is cause I dont know what a good quick servo is. Jeez I really talk alot...

I may be interested in one. If they arent too pricey, I really don't make alot of money.

The 650 should be plenty for throttle/brake.

I know it works good but im a megalomaniac, and I mentally need the biggest baddest strongest fastest stuff or I feel like im cheating myself. LOL
I just enjoy an upgrade to be honest.

the 9350's are like a 100$ a piece but they will prolly last u longer than any other servo out there, great warranty too. Mine are going on 2 years and I am not thinking twice about using them for the nats

well im an airtronics fan, M8's are still great if u can find a good used one, I like my M11 even though alotta guys bitch that its too heavy. The Kopropo (i think) Z-1 is really nice a lot of guys have those as well.

Jeremy, the key is to get a $350 radio (like the JR Z-1 w/spek) but snag a good used one for around $200-250 (at that price w/spekrum a lot of the time)

You can use spek rx's with the react radio. It's just not as fast as if you use the react transciever.
J-dub, check out my FS thread. I have some good airtronics for sale.
