I would like to get a stronger steering servo for my Mini-T and RC18T. What servos are made for them or work well with them. Also what servo savers work well with them.

Do the Mini-T and RC18T use the same kind of servo? Is it called a "micro" or "mini"?

I think I've read that Airtronics and Hitec make servos that work, but I don't know for sure.

Thanks for any help,
Ras

the hitec hs-81mg and the 85mg would fit but it requieres dremel work to make em fit in the mini t but i dont know about the 18t. im using a hs 55 servo in my mini t and it seems to be a good choice. just look around and read about stuff before u buy it.

losi racer,

Thanks for the info. What is the "hs 55" servo? Is this a Hitec? Is it better than the hs-81/85mg?

Thanks,
Ras

This is the servo:

Mine is blue, but maybe they changed it. Anyways, it's only 16 bucks.

This is the servo saver: http://www.horizonhobby.com/Shop/ByCategory/Product/Default.aspx?ProdID=LOSB1226

Both will bolt right up with no hassles. I don't have an RC18T but it should work there too.
