I have used these in the past on my planes and haven't had a problem yet. Cant beat the price. I probably wouldn't use these on something I'm going to be aggressive with like advanced 3d maneuvers. That's just because they have plastic gears. Not saying they wouldn't handle it. Its just a personal preference in using metal gear servos for that kind of flying. I will continue to buy these.

so far so good, but i havent put more than a few flights on them. wire leads are nice and rugged, moreso than hxt900. the primary motor pinion gear is brass. and of course, the price is competitive with the cheapest ebay sellers of knockoffs..
Be sure to fully test them before installing, including checking for loose gear play (gear lash). ive found that 2 of my 5 servos have some excess gear lash and this leads to oscillation or bouncing of the control surface on my epp 3d plane. this might be what some people call jittery. I wish i had known to also check that, since my bad servo is more or less permanently glues into my plane. (Posted on 8/22/2016)
Have had better luck with these in scratch build projects, than more expensive 9g servos. Well packaged and expediently shipped. Come to think of it, I don't think I've had one of these go bad yet. Thanks VH (Posted on 9/30/2014)
these little servos work great for small RC aircraft, i have been using them for years and only had to replace them in the event i had a very hard crash. A+ (Posted on 9/12/2014)
These servo's are GREAT! they not only cost a dollar less than the HK ones but they work just as well! I've got them on all my scratch built foamies. Best servo for it's price in my opinion. (Posted on 7/4/2014)
I have about 20 of these in lots of foam board planes. seem to work fine as long as you keep the voltage at 5v
over that they die. (Posted on 7/12/2013)
I purchased 5 of these servos and one was dead,but with them being as cheap as they are it would cost more to send back then to just buy more,and I will buy more the little servo does a good job (Posted on 4/18/2013)
For the money these are some awesome little 9g servos! I've had 4 in a Areoworks su-31 balsa profile 3D'er with about a 32" wingspan with about 100+ flights on it (agressive) and not a issue one! snap rolls,walls & everything I can throw at it. never stripped one out yet! I use them in my slowsticks and a GWS TigerMoth 400. at the low price I bought extras but never had to change one out! so I end up buying another plane! so warning! don't buy to many extras!! you'll just order more planes.....wouldn't recommend in a large plane, but a small parkflyer,, PERFECT!

These appear to be identical to the HXT900 hextronic servos, which are widely regarded as the best budget servo around. The internal gears are the same, and mine even have the same label on the inside of the case. I believe they are the same servo just rebranded. Anyways, they work great, and so far have been stone reliable. They aren't the fastest servo around, nor are they the strongest. They just work. At this price, just get a dozen of them so you have spares in case you strip any in a crash. (Posted on 1/10/2013)
these are some good servo been using them in my 450 heli for 1 and half year now,servo will strip the gears only when you have a crash (Posted on 9/10/2012)
