Is there a place in the US to buy good cheap servos that are around $5 or less? I know Hobby city would be the place, but there in China and shipping is too expensive just to buy a few servos. Thanks.

Thanks Dave, no I havent yet. Im looking for 9 gram servos that would fit my Super Cub and HBFP. Im thinking 9 gram tower pro servos or hxt 900 servos. I forgot that Hobby City had a USA warehouse they have hxt 900 servos for $5 but there out of stock.

They say they are going to open up a second warehouse here in the US sometime next moth I think I read someplace.
OK will keep an eye out for them while I look for the 450 parts.

Im looking at getting 4 for my SC and then eventually 2 for my HBFP.

Those HXT900's are great plank servos. Better take up sol's offer before he goes out of stock. |

Sol is a savior we need him here in the States I use to like you Ray, but one is enough already. We have to put up with that BT guy already and no country should have to put up with two.....I'm just saying your welcome to visit Sol but only on a 24 hour visa, then back across the line there buddy  Dave |

By the way, I truly think the HXT-900's are way better than the Tower pros.
I had three Tower pros go nuts on me. Never had an HXT-900 do anything but work. I'm running about 30 of these things on all kinds of planks. I have never had a failure!! I'm even running them on my 110mph Funjet!
I gave one to a guy with a Falcon 40. It took a little whittling to get it to fit, but it worked just fine after it was in there.
I would personally not run these on a 450 sized CP heli.
===
That is sure nice of Mr. Sol to take care of your servo needs!!

Sorry for not being able to get back to you guys, Ive been really busy lately. Thats a good deal Solitaire, this is going to sound lame but my parents dont let me buy off of forums though. I might have to pick me up some servos from Hobby City. I didnt realize shipping was that cheap.
