Yes, you can use another servo that has similar characteristics. Go by similar size and weight and voltage rating and you'll probably do OK.

Good luck with your $50 robot. Many of us here have built it.

Servos all work pretty much the same. The only thing you might have to change are the steps to convert the servo to continuous rotation. Google can help with the servo modification. Let us know how your build goes and make sure to post pictures.
