You don't need 20kg but it won't hurt. You do need speed, 0.16 isn't exactly fast.

Anyway, a red Chinese 20kg special off eBay, Aliexpress, banggood or wherever will cost half the money and most likely be just as good.

That will be fine but honestly, that servo is a bit pricey imo. I use these servos and they've been great. 20kg digital, water proof for 20 bucks. https://www.amazon.com/ANNIMOS-Digi...&keywords=powerhd+servo&qid=1591954997&sr=8-4

i think he's from Aussie land? that's 51 AUD which is about 35 USD, if you can get that relatively quickly it's not a bad deal.

This is actually the exact ones I use. A little more expensive but they got good transit speed. May be a little over kill for your truck but f###k it. More is better ??

0.16 is reference to the transit speed. How fast it will turn your tires. The lower that number the faster the servo
