I was wondering what the best 1/4 Scale Giant Servo is? I got myself a Drambuie on Ice, and I was planning on using my servo which I purchased for another build, but it is a standard size servo. It's the Hitec HS-7955TG. In the DOI, there is a 1/4 Futaba S3303.

The servos that I found to be pretty good are the Futaba 5302 and the Hitec HS-5755MG (which has much more torque at 6v). I think I'm going to go with the Hitec, but I'm looking for other suggestions to find the best one I can get. Thanks!

Yah I think I've seen that one, but what I'm looking for is a Giant / 1/4 Scale servo.

Wow that's pretty impressive. So what is the difference between standard and 1/4 scale servos? Are they just bigger?

I'm not experienced with the 1/4 scale stuff. Maybe someone else can help with that question.

Ah alright, I'll see if someone can tell me the difference. Cause I've already got a pretty good standard servo, it's just that the 1/4 will fit right in to the mount.
