Lets just agree that we disagree.....Absolutely disagree, these DS3235 are maybe enough for a slow 1/10th car but even then they are just terrible steering servos.
No power, no speed and durability is seriously lacking.
Maybe I am special in that regard, but driving a car with those servos takes all the fun out of it for me.
They just don't compare to a proper servo like an AGF-RC, Promodeler, Holmes Hobbies or even Sävox (which I am not a big fan of either).
Just get something like an AGF-RC A73BHLW and be done with it.
BTW, I really don't understand what your saying about the SS spring and servo torque?
If the SS spring is tight enough to turn the wheels with a given servo and you replace it with a higher torque servo, the wheels are still going to turn the same.
Sure, you might lose that "extra torque" but that won't matter because you already had enough torque to turn the wheels anyway...
And if the spring was to loose, then of course a higher torque servo is not going to remedy that because servo torque wasn't the problem to begin with.
Sorry if I misinterpreted what you tried to say
Not a fan of Savox either.
1/10 rigs vary in speed and weight. Even a 25 kg servo will suffice in them most of the time.
Your favorite AGF servo there needs 8.4v to get it to 40kg and .10ms speed. Hope your ESC can push 8.4v BEC.
And I am being generous. Most any servo is 30% over rated in specs on average.
DS3235 is no slouch. Is it the best out there?
NO.
But for the $$ and simple bashing it works fine. Torque and speed is fine. Runs great on 7.4v BEC.
Running on a track competitively is a whole new ball of wax. Do you race? Need to program your Servos?
And the more speed and torque a servo has, yes, your Servo Saver better be up to the task, or your Servo will just outpace your Servo Saver.
Servo Saver won't keep up.
