I have a Air359 I will sell you for $50, that's how much they suck. The 359 is in perfect working order, I would rather have a JR650z. Let me know if you want it for $50.
tex is this the servo your tlaking about??http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/2454

if so, then why do you want to let it go for so cheap and why do they suck and should i go with your servo or the JR?

from what your saying it sounds like your saying that the JR650 is better than the one you wnat to sell.

Rather than argue over the perceived values of the brands, why doesn't an Airtronics user just snap up Gabes good deal on a 359?

If he likes something else, that's just his choice.

theres no arguing going on. Just stating our experiences with air is all. Tex used to say he liked that 359 a lot and now he hates it. Just curious to what changed his mind.

I always said the 359 was "ok" I have never really liked it all that much. Seems slower than what Air claims and the 200oz of torque doesn't turn my wheels any faster or any more than the 650z.

If you have never tried a good Futaba servo, you have been missing out.

Traxxas thrasher, my servo is the same as you linked except no heat sink case. Mine is the model right before they put the differant case on them as standard.
If you want it, $50.

I'll finish off with, I have never loved the 359, only reason I run it is I got it free.

Roc, have you not figured out that we are the most wishy-washy bunch of guys ever when it comes to what we want to sell or buy? God, you'd think we were all a bunch of women, as often as we change our minds...except for me, that is. I never change my mind.

I like eggs, and Revo's never break. My GT has a KO servo that kicks all others A$$es.

How can anybody sell anything on this site when you get ten guys giving their BS opinions on everything?

It's always the same 5 guys trying to give their unwanted input and it's the same thing again and again.

As soon as someone posts something the same guys come out of the wood work and post a hundred posts about nothing but opinion. It gets old...

Wow... Here i thought this thread was STARTED by someone asking for that very thing... OPINIONS!!!!

We listen to your BS opinions too brucey...

Every single part made by mulitple manufactuers for r/c cars will ALWAYS turn into the classic ford vs. chevy conversation... Its the nature of people.
