Hey theres that "Bang for the buck" phrase again....

Jr's are great.... If you have the money airtronics has treated me great too... I like the speed and power of the ace sevos but ive seen 4-5 fail... Broken servo cases.... A 6 buck fix but it takes you outta the race...

Traxxas Thrasher, please tell me what you mean by, "best bang for the buck". It's seems there's some confusion as to the meaning of that phrase.

It sounds like he has about $50 to spend and wants the best servo for that price.

I look at best bang for the buck as "If I buy a $100 servo I won't need to buy another one."

So it's not the cheapest servo, but the best value for the dollar that offers the "best bang for the buck"?

Haha I see where this is going.

In this case, Bruce, your meaning of the phrase is being used. Best for the money.
