I am in need of a steering servo for a 1/4scale F1 hull with electric outboard?

Its a MHZ Trident with MHZ Outboard z-drive and TP Power 5850 motor.
We are talking nearly 2kg hanging of the ass of this hull :lol:

What kind of servo are we walking here?
Something like this beast?

I run Sanwa/airtronics MT-44 transmitter, so it has to work with that.
Any suggestions are welcome :smile:

The gas guys are using these..https://www.servocity.com/servos/servo-gearboxes

I tried to find a link to the 4000in/oz unit for you but ran out of time. Warning, they are very proud of them.

Hi,

This guy built a 1/4 Trident and uses a Savox SV-0235MG.
I saw him running two weeks ago, a beauty !

You Sir, should have a medal!!!

I have been searching for very long to find any build pictures.. With no luck. You seriously just gave my project a very big push forward :)

What a beatyfull boat. Such a big inspiration for my own!
But I can see that a have to drop my Gulf idea Haha.

Maybe Martini Racing instead then :)
