Torque Speak
The upper a servo’s torque ranking, the extra energy it has to push and pull the steering system’s linkages. That additional energy is particularly welcome for bigger, heavier fashions and their bigger, heavier tires.

The 2075R and 2075X metal-gear servos differ solely of their gear ratios. The 2075R is geared for velocity, 2075X is geared for optimum torque. Both servo makes a pleasant improve to your your Bandit®, Revo®, Rustler®, Stampede®, or Slash® with a metal-gear sturdiness increase.
2270 Excessive Torque Metallic Gear Servo
This servo’s a sleeper–it seems to be similar to the 2075X/R models and has the identical commonplace 1/10 scale dimensions, nevertheless it’s packing a mighty 236 ouncesin of tire-twisting torque. That’s an enormous 88% increase in steering energy in comparison with the 2075X/R. This makes it an amazing improve for TRX-4® and TRX-6® vehicles or any big-tire machine. In truth, the 2270 is commonplace tools for the TRX-4 with Traxx. Swinging these beefy tracks calls for quite a lot of servo muscle, and the 2270 delivers.

2250 Excessive Torque 330 Metallic Gear Servo
Now we’re stepping into the actually heavy hitters. The Excessive-Torque 330 yanks the steering hyperlinks with 330 ouncesin of torque (therefore the title), and that blue-anodized mid-case provides extra than simply fashion. The aluminum case sheds warmth to maintain the servo motor cool, guaranteeing peak efficiency from begin to end throughout prolonged crawls and all-day velocity periods. Additionally distinctive to the 330: coreless motor building, which gives lightning-quick response and superior command precision in comparison with commonplace wound-armature servo motors.
2275 Excessive Torque 347 Metallic Gear Servo
The 2275 has an aluminum mid-case and 347 ouncesin of torque! This servo belongs to Sledge, Traxxas’ 70+ mph, 12.8 pound (14+ kilos with batteries on board), extreme-performance 1/8 scale truck. The Excessive-Torque 347 steers this hefty, hard-hitting machine with authority but nonetheless suits inside a standard-servo footprint, permitting the 347 to even be used as an improve servo for many Traxxas fashions geared up with 2056- or 2075-series servos.
Up thus far, all of the upgraded servos we have checked out have been designed to run off commonplace BEC energy out of your mannequin’s digital velocity management. These subsequent two servors are so highly effective, that you will have to improve your TRX-4 and TRX-6 to the Excessive-Energy BEC Package. This standalone BEC is ideal for TRX-4 with greater than sufficient energy for even the biggest servos and heaviest vehicles.
Brushless Customary Dimension Servos
2255 Brushless Excessive Torque 400 Metallic Gear Servo
This powerhouse is full of high-performance options together with a full-metal gearset, anodized aluminum midcase, and a brushless motor. The advantages of going brushless with a servo motor are the identical as going brushless to energy your automobile or truck: you get extra torque, greater RPM, and larger effectivity. 400 ouncesin of torque works out to 25 kilos of drive, greater than sufficient for even the biggest Traxxas fashions. The Excessive Torque 400 is ideal for TRX-4 and TRX-6 vehicles, the place most servo muscle is required to push and pull large-diameter wheels carrying super-soft, ultra-sticky tires below closely weighted vehicles shifting at a crawl tempo–and even stationary. For that kind of extra-extreme responsibility, nothing tops the 400 Pink.
2280 Brushless Excessive Torque 600 Metallic Gear Servo
That is the brand new prime canine within the Traxxas servo lineup. Just like the 2255, the 2280 makes use of brushless motor expertise to pump out its 600 ouncesin of torque at 6 volts. It you step as much as 7.4 volts, this wonderful powerhouse places out over 700 ouncesin of torque. That is practically 5 occasions the facility of a normal 2075 servo! The Excessive Torque 600 incorporates a full aluminum case with cooling fins for additional warmth dissipation. Regardless of its large energy output, the 2280 nonetheless suits most Traxxas autos that take a normal measurement servo. Simply be wise with all that energy!
Giant Scale Servos
Extra Metallic = Extra Power
Though brushless standard-size servos have greater than sufficient torque for even the biggest Traxxas autos, there’s simpy no substitute for extra steel.
