get a steering servo with metal gears. ideally high torque aswell but metal gears is a must!!

Links to Hitec and Airtronics. Everything one would need to weight and compare.

Theres also Ko servos and Jr servos. All I run are Hitec digital servos. Digtal servo are better than analog servos. Cost more but worth it. Dig. centers better, quicker response better built. Try running around 180oz for your steering. They do make a 330oz torque, titanium gears. Run right at $104 at SMF great price for that servo. Look at there other ones as well.

At least there is now something to compare to. I like facts plain and simple
