Default Servo Database

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to spread the word about a new resource I've built for RC enthusiasts called Servo Database.

The goal of this project is to have detailed, organized information for every RC servo in existence. (Currently the database has 1,792 servos!)

I've tried to make it easy to quickly view and compare different servos. Some other features of the database include:
  • Advanced search feature to find servos based on any criteria. For example, you could do a search to find all Futaba servos that are digital and have at least 250 oz/in of torque.
  • Ability to sort servos according to any attribute (e.g. fastest to slowest)
  • Servo reviews allow you to discuss and rate each servo.
Let me know what you think!

Super Job !!

I could have made a helluva lotta use from this when I got back into The Hobby after a long lay-off . I did find something like it later but it had no search engine.

I created a similar spreadsheet on engines when I was trying to sort out all the "new" stuff offered. Shame I lost the back-up disc. Of course I discovered this after having to wipe the drive on my PC.

But I had maybe 50-60 engines on it. Nothing like this.
