          Ill hold you to that Lol..

          At the end of the day, you get what you pay for. They are going to be half the price of any other brand with the same spec for a reason...... Like every other product in this hobby.

          Pays your money takes your choice.

                        I've got a 620 that has lost almost all its torque. It was only used a couple of times on the elevator servo. Luckily a discovered the problem on the bench.

                        I still don't know what when wrong with it though. Can I send it to Robbe UK and get them to repair it in hope they send me a new one instead?

                          with my experience of Robbe if you send it off now you can get lots of promises of new ones or replacments, but youll still be getting them at Christmas.
                          All the best

                            As a matter of interest mark, do you use the small ferrules in the rubbers when mounting your servos?
