Default Best Hitec 35% Throttle Servo?

Hi guys,

Just wondering what hitec servos you are running on throttle on you 35% birds.

I am thinking about a metal gear 5625, but have seen some guys use the plastic gear 5245 mini.

I thought that metal gears would be safer, even on throttle and at 1oz heavier the 5625 seems like a good option. Let me know.

Thanks,

Shaun

I have seen some 5245's go bad on big planes (too many). Best throttle servo by far is the 5965 (old 5925) Much more precise than the 5625, way faster too.
