Wow! Ok, so while USD$169 seems like a lot of money, I feel like this was simply an excellent deal and you'd probably sell a bunch even if you were asking 179, 189, etc. Thanks for your dedication to quality. I'm a long-time fan, love your work. Rock on, JRH and co. :)
Grabbed two servos, literally just unalived a 3bros g13 pro running the SA esc, on a 1550mah 4s pack, Ready to give these a shot. Owned many of the holmes electronics and never had a single issue.
Hi, I own 2 800oz direct powered servos. One for my MOA with your dual escs and the other with my TRX4 Sport running a Hobbywing 1080. The direct powered is great in those cases. My other RCs are brushless with really powerful BEC output (Hobbywing Axe v2, Castle Mamba X, and Monster 8s. It would be great to have a bec powered option on this servo. Is that being considered? If no one else is asking that’s that. I would put this in a Lasernut, Kraton 6s and others. Its neater in these rc's just to connect to the esc. Thanks! I just bought 5 motors!!! I'm trying to help sell out the existing stock 😀
I have been running the shv500 v1 with the 1.6 mm pin and been through axialfest 3 times and countless personal crawls and replaced many parts around it and it is supposed to be a 250000 cycle servo hahaha ya ok….. its still putting up a fight … and this new one is better … 😮 … i love how you build great sh.. but my only gripe is that now its getting harder to find rebuild kits for these guys … other than that keep up the great work John
Weight difference compared to previous SVH650? If it's lighter it would be worth changing for my rear steer servo. Edit: according to google the full size is 89g so that would make the LP version 23g lighter at 66g. Perfect because the biggest down fall of rear steer is the extra weight in the rear.
So if it's rated for a million cycles, and is $170, why doesn't it come with a lifetime warranty? Put a cap on the AM32 esc. It will help with the voltage spikes.
I had two recent failures both running ur ESC and team spec revolvers both running 4s batteries at 1400 mah. One setup ran for bout 2 hours, then shit the bed before I even made it to the first gate at a comp! It was a brandy new NSDRC direct wire. Actually fried ESC too,which y’all replaced. Other setup didn’t even make it off the bench as it fried a reefs 900lp , also running 4s 1400mah. So not too sold on the smaller batteries being at fault..need more info. On the other hand, I’m excited to try out one of your new servos….. I’m not sure that u mentioned a price range tho? Love ur products and customer care! Keep it up over there!
Will this servo work at all on 2s? I run my truck on 2s for trails/goofing around and 3s for “competition” but this looks to be the only steering servo listed now and shows as not compatible with 2s. Is it possible to find an original shv650 or shv800 anywhere or is this servo the only offering now?
Hi Mr.holmes,question why is it that we bits cannot order directly from you? Your supplier in the UK does not carry enough stock. I run a lot of comp rigs I.e moa,sporty and mini, I was unable to buy a pair of magnums because he only had one,not much use on a moa.i want to buy a 650lp none in stock,not allowed to buy one directly from you either, that SUCKS. How do I purchase one? If you continue to stop us from purchasing directly then you are going to LOSE a lot of customers. Your UK supplier is letting YOU and us down. There are plenty of other manufacturers out there, pick up your game. Regards Spencer.
Unfortunately, I can't control what our UK supplier orders. Although they have a website that looks like us, it's not my company. Let them know what you want and they can order it for you, or order through amain. Due to the current import restrictions of the UK, we cannot ship to you without being approved by the crown, paying fees, constant reporting requirements, constant tax payments, and generally the most amount of hoops I've ever seen. Its obscene the level of red tape now. We could literally bounce a package through China easier than dealing with the UK / US import restrictions 😢
