Put 4 in a twist 40 and of all 4 they won’t return back true to center when controlling the control surfaces. Flew the plane once and couldn’t get it trimmed due to this it was always either diving, climbing, or turning. After I got home linkages we’re disconnected and checked for freeness. All are free and take zero effort to move. I am using Futaba 16iz radio and receiver battery is pro tech 1600 life 6.6 v. Battery was fully charged as well. I changed this review to 2 stars from one they will work great as throttle servo and Amain’s customer service has been outstanding in trying to resolve the issue.
An amazing value, being a branded servo in the 20$ range. It is particularly good at holding it's position and especially returning to center accurately which is very important for on-road racing. The only limitation of course is that the gears are not metal so you do need a servo saver. A very nice feature is the ability to work on 2S voltage, making it possible to bypass the BEC altogether. Also, these newer Hitec servos now use standard 25t spline output shafts making it compatible with so many more servo savers and arms. This has become my go to servo for all 1/10 cars. Highly recommended.
