I have been unable to find the price you have listed. Do you have any additional information that may help locate that price? I am going to purchase 6 and that is a substantial savings over what I have been able to find. Thank you. | ||||||||||||||||||

Troybuiltmodels.com is selling 7995s for $87 each (you need to add them to the cart), Chiefaircraft.com has them for $87.50, airwild has them for $89.99 (but if you call and ask you might get better pricing on 6). Several people have tried a single 7955 on the rudder @6V and weren't happy with the result due to heating over time on excessive 3D so they ganged two and no longer had an issue. You might try the single 7950, it will save you some dough. Joe

Check out the JR 8611s & 8711s. The prices at TBM are great! The difference in price between Hitec & TBM's JR prices are too small IMHO to make any comprimises. To add to that the JR quality & Horizon's customer service are best out there. I have sent in literally dozens of JR servos after a few years of flying to get fresh gear sets....always at no charge. The last set of 6 servos I sent in were ~4year old 8611s....obviously past warranty, and obviously heavily used in 4 years...and I got them back 2weeks ago with fresh gear sets at no charge to me...not even return shipping. That is unbeatable service from Horizon. There are other threads on FG that talk abut Hitec centering & jitter issues....not everyone has had the same experience but it definetely looks like very loose manufacturing tolerances with Htec servos that seem to vary batch to batch. I do not get freebies from anybody....so this is an unbiased opinion. |

i sent in some servo's that were in a crash and broken into hitec. i explained that they were in a crash and call me for a cc number and i will pay for the repairs. well a few weeks later i have the servos repaired and for free. i have both jr and hitec servos. both are great. but i think i might have to send in my 8711 in for gear slop though.
