This is the most versatile servo I've used. It's size and weight make it a great choice for 2wd buggy. Then, after you use one, you'll laugh at the last sentence because this servo is crazy powerful. In my B6D, I was setting end points and checking steering linkages when I grabbed one of the tires and tried to turn it against the servo. I had to crank on the tire hard to make it 'cry'. It's strong. This is a must-have for 4wd 1/10 buggies since space is at a premium. The only servo more impressive than 160T is 170S 'Chad Bradley' edition. This servo would work for TC all the way through 4wd SC. So, great price point, great product, and tremendous versatility.
So I've had this servo for about a month now. Super quiet! Fast! Not to mention awesome looking! This thing works flawlessly in my Losi 22T!! Would definitely buy again and again. I own the Chad Bradley Speed servo as well and that thing is a beast in my SCTE!! These are my first Protek products. So far so good!!!
Very good servo! I have this in my 4wd buggy and I run it on 6 volts. It has plenty of torque on high bite clay. The servo is very quiet and smooth. The case is an added bonus! I plan on running this on my nitro as a throttle servo as well on 7.4 volts. I would highly recommend this servo. I know Low profile servos of any brand have been lacking in either speed or torque in the past but this servo finally has both good specs!
bought this servo from my local hobbytown a a few weeks ago, today i opened the box today and was pleasantly surprized. the parts bag inside had a PTK-7819-BK aluminum servo horn and PTK-3040 Aluminum Servo Mount Grommet set which is mentioned on this site, but i didn't know looking at the box or until open.
Been running it in a TLR 22 4.0 buggy at 7.4 volts. At .06 second transit speed it is more than fast enough. Plenty of torque. One of quietest and most precise servos i have ever had. Looks great with the aluminum black/silver/gold case. No problems running off Tekin rs gen 2 E.S.C and Futaba 4pv radio.
for the money this servo is amazing! I have used a bunch of Protek servos in the past and this one is just as good. Best budget servo out there. Just as good as the $200 servos. It's pretty cool that it's super quiet, does not make a lot of noise when trying to find center and operates extremly smooth and fast. I strongly suggest using this in any 1/10 offroad, onroad 1/10 car. I use this servo in my 2wd buggy and 4wd buggy. Great stuff Protek
Superp performance! Superb quality! This servo is so smooth, so quiet, so strong and ver fast. I used these in my 10th scale wheeler in which they have always worked flawlessly, servo savers are not needed as these servos are built to truly for anyone looking for nothing short high end performance, longevity etc. Racers, bashers, rest assure this servo has you coveted. It may be a low profile servo however it has the DNA of a full sized servo. I used to use a much more exspensive brand for my low-profile servo however as good they were, they do not compare to the performance, qaulity of the protek 160T.
i really like this servo, great space saver, and it takes all my abuse
Very good I don't like how it gives you the option the buy a servo horn when it comes with one. Servo is very good
Love this servo. I run them in my YZ2, EB410 and XB4. Really great servo guys!
So far so good. Lasted longer than other brand. It centers fast and can take a full cart wheel down the straight. Wish it came with a sticker to show them off though..
Its nice to finally be able to buy a servo 1 time only!!! I've had this servo in my car for almost 2 years and no issues, ran this servo in an 8th buggy also and no problems. If you aren't running one you need to be!!
Very consistent and reliable servo! One of the better servos I've run in a while!!
Great servo. Installed these on my Team Associated B6 and B64. More than enough power and speed for both. No issues holding a center and couldn't be happier.
Big fan of these servos, specs like very expensive Futabas for a reasonable price. Servo is very fast, quiet, centers perfectly every time and is nice and low profile. I keep being impressed with Protek stuff from their batteries to there chargers quality products with a average price.
Good servos for my serpent Srx4. Good speed, good torque.
A main service is nice!!
Thanks Protek!!
Excellent servo, I have it in all 5 of my 1/10th scale off road cars(2 and 4 wheel) Run all different surfaces including turf, carpet and clay for years. Great buy.
Excellent servo. Amazingly quiet, and plenty quick and strong even at 6V. Works great in my B74.1 and B6.2. Short cord, only about 6” long. Weighed in at 54g w/o hardware. Includes 20/16.5mm dual hole clamping servo horn in black (Protek PTK-7819-BK) and aluminum grommets in black as well (Protek PTK-3040) - would be nice if those were in the pictures & description, so I wouldn’t have ordered them as well.
removed a star because the size is longer than my MKS X5 and I bought another of this thinking it would fit my FF mid motor but it couldn't.
other than that:
I'm very happy with this servo. It's really value for money as I've used savox power hd MKS before. It's very quiet. It's fast and powerful for 1/10 touring applications and the aluminium collars and the servo horn is a surprise. I will recommend users to use the collars as the servo tend to shift left or right without them. The collars ensure that they are mounted centered. I'll surely get more from protek!
Very good quality servo. Very fast and precise response and good holding power with very little of any free play / slop..
It comes with good quality mounting hardware and metal servo arm.
Good choice for any 1/10 scale off road vehicle.
Worth the money!
Update after second use.
Servo striped the main gear ??
Amain sent courtesy gear replacement but I will not be buying this brand servo again.
Btw I also have the 160ss and it also malfunction causing a glitch around neutral like when you let go of the wheel.
Anyway I will not buy again!
