The three best choices are probably the 7955, the JR 8611/8711, or Futaba 9156. The Hitecs as you say aren't the most precise, but still pretty good and certainly widely used. I haven't tried the new 7955's yet. The 8611's and 8711's are popular, but I have heard bad things about their gear wear. The Futaba 9156's are reputed to have more power than the 8611's and 5955's, not too sure about gear wear. Short of starting a brand war, maybe some guys can chime in about them.
