JR’s all aluminum case 8.4v high voltage 8711HV and 8717HV servos have been very well received even at the high price point.  Announced in Japan last month is the next installment in the series; 6311HV, 6315HV, 6321HV, and 6325HV high volt servos.

Also completely new from JR, in response to Futaba’s very successful BLS brushless servo line, is the new MP servo line.  These include the MP70, MP80G, and MP80T.  The MP80G is a brushless equivalent to the 8900G brushed gyro tail servo.  Futaba no longer has the monopoly on the brushless tail servo market and with a 0.05sec response time, it will certainly will be a contender.

I just, myself, switched to an 8v setup on my Aling T-Rex 700 and I must say there is a world of difference from 5v and 6v systems.  I am running direct from my lipo using the Arizona Fromenco Kiwi.  Surprisingly I AM NOT using 8717’s but I am using Futaba 9452s with NO PROBLEMS.  I am always aware that they could die any second but seems not to be the case, so far.

Hi-Tec has come out with an 7.4v (8v) line of servos that aren’t super great but at least give you confidence they have been tested at 8v without failures.
