  • Are SAVOX servo's any good?

    Just flicking through one of my heli mags and came across an advert for them. They look pretty good but are they? Does anyone use them?

    Apparently align servos are savox servos rebranded.

      I have them in my 500 and they are doing the job nicely. Are they better than 9650's or DS3500's etc. etc. etc. in the same application, I doubt it. Stronger than some though

                I think the ones to avoid were those that came with the 450 Pro...can't remember their name off hand but the others AFAIK have been fine.

                  I have four Align's (3xDS610 and 1xDS620). I had the 620 fail on me but the replacement has been fine thus far.

                    I use Savox servos and they have been very reliable. I am about to try out the Savox tail servo too which I have heard very good things about.

                      I have one I'm about to try as well. If it's basically the same as the DS650 it should be good.
