here are the specs on the servo i whant to get but it dident say what modole it was like sh-311, it just said hitec servo.

Expect to wait even a couple days before getting a reply to your posts, Strydom.

As long as its an analog and not a digital servo you can use it. The modification to make it continuously rotate should be pretty much the same as well.

That servo you posted a link to is actually a little bit stronger than the HS-311 which should make you happy. Just remember to get 2 of them to make your drive system

All analog servos are the same, and digitals are mad expensive so dont worry 'slong as you have three cords, red black and white or yellow

[strydom]
