Not the worst servo, but really only good for those just entering the hobby or those who just want to do a little light "bashing". Definitely not up to track use and tends to strip under heavy use. Laggy and generally sluggish with not much torque. If you've managed to use yours up, a few bucks on a better servo would be very well spent. In my opinion this servo is one of the weakest points of any platform it's in, and most hobbyists agree!
Excellent, condition 1 change the internal parts to (TRA2072R) Metal Servo Gear Set.
It would be nice see Traxxas upgrade this servo as it has been in use for 10+ years now. This servo is far from being considered high torque in 2018 as you can get servos this size with nearly 4x the torque. At this same price point you can get either double the torque of this servo or double the speed. Aside from the subpar performance, the gears in the servo are very weak and will strip under load. If you want to stay with a Traxxas servo, order the TRA2075X servo with metal gears. But my advice is to order a high quality servo from Spektrum, Savox, Hitec, etc and get much better performance and reliability.
Very good Servo! I bought it in Second Hand :) & use it on throttle/brake. It has a true 10kg torque. & a true waterproof - thick rubber rings in case for all aperture & slots. It has a steel gear drive, but it has a plastic basic shaft (for sservo horn).
This is great servo I have it on my hpi e firestorm flux and it way better than the sf10w that aw junk I like that it water proof and yea can handle so much
Reviewers are divided on the Traxxas 2075 waterproof servo. Most praise its waterproofing and torque for basic bashing, crawling and buggy steering, and several are satisfied with it. The most frequent complaint is durability: plastic gears stripping under load, sometimes after minutes of hard use, with multiple reviewers reporting repeated gear failures. Some describe it as laggy or underpowered for track use and suggest metal-gear alternatives such as the TRA2075X or a metal gear set. Several recommend third-party servos for higher performance or reliability. Overall, reviews suggest it suits lighter or entry-level use, while heavy-duty use may expose gear weakness.
- + Waterproof construction
- + Good torque for basic bashing
- + Satisfactory for steering in buggies and crawlers
- + Good value as basic upgrade
- − Plastic gears strip under load
- − Laggy and sluggish response
- − Weak for track or heavy use
- − Dated design, outperformed by newer servos
