is the hobbico CS-170 a hitec HS-7955 with the hobbico name on it?

same specs at 6v (333 oz. /.15 sec)

both have Ti gears.

hitec is listed as 'coreless' but hobbico isnt.

I believe they are different judging by the lower case's.

they also take the same servo-arm (horn), hmmm

Which is the better servo?

 

[Larsenracing]

Both servos look to be made by hitec which I am sure of but i'm just not sure the ones listed are the same. There are really only a few different manufacturers out there.

I would have to say the Coreless is a better servo if the hobbico one isn't.
