My stock 15kg servo on my v4 notorious finally went out, and i want to got something big like this 70KG servo. Link Here. The 70 kg servo dementions are 40x40x20mm, and the stock 15kg servo dimensions are 40x38x20mm. So my question is would this servo fit being that it’s a couple mm’s off? And what are your thoughts on this servo and putting something this powerful in this car?

Link doesn’t work, so not sure what you’re looking at. You can probably space it up easily on your mount with servo spacers, they’re usually included. 70kg will turn those big wheels just fine, though.

Should work fine. I would look for something in the 45-50kg range that is a little faster. This is .1 at 7.4 and .12 at 6. At 6v you probably wont see much of a difference in response or speed. At 7.4v you will probably notice the speed upgrade a little. 70kg is a bit overkill IMHO.

I’m not real picky on servos or just cheap, take your pick. Recently installed the i9mod 45kg in my outcast 6s performs well just have not had time to put it through its paces yet. Bang to the buck the Amazon servos are a good value. They are sold under a few different brand names. make sure to set the endpoints on your radio. It will increase the life of the servo. If your budget allows Savox, Protek, Reefs, or Power Hobby are all very good. Just come at a premium. Maybe if I was racing I would be more selective.

Make sure to replace the 23t horn with a 25t when you replace.
