Hello all, I've gone through 3 servos, the stock one, 25 kg red cat servo, and finally anEcoPower WP120T servo. What bullet proof servo is everyone running for bashing?

What RC is this for?
 
I've purchased three Savox servos in the past 2 months. I know they are pricy but I have not had any issues as of yet and they perform amazingly.

Here are the ones I own:

I suspect your end points need to be set. You're probably killing your servos with too much travel
Always set the endpoints since you might burn out the servo if you do not.

How much money do you want to spend?
See comments above regarding Savox servos.

As @gotnitro, mentions "how much do you want to spend?"
My research discovered I can pay $25-35 for an array of different Chinese servos. Or, I can pay $75-$100.
I opted to choose Savox based on their reputation, R&D, and overall selection.

I’ve set the end points so they are end to end without binding.

I’ve had good luck with Savox servos in my helicopters. Which servo do you recommend?

All of the above would work, just make sure you look at the dimensions.
Aso, I had an issue with the cable placement when building my Kraton EXB. Not sure how your housing is designed for the Kraton 6s but assume it would be the same. If so, you will need to notch the housing for the cable to slip inside. It was a surprise when I realized the servo has it located at the bottom. I simply did not do my homework. It worked out and I was able to install it but it was not plug-in-play.
