With servo's you get what you pay for 90% of the time. Savox is generally pretty good bang for buck. Failures are relatively rare which make it a bit interesting that yours shite itself.

I run hitec in all my crawlers the 7954 seems to be the best bang for buck in the hitecs at the moment. Just make sure you're running a external 10amp bec, cause they need it.

If you want to be cheap, check out bluebird servos on hobbyking.com. Quality can be hit and miss, but if you get a good one, they're worth it.

I just got one of those Savox servos so will see how long it lasts for me. I hear the hitec servos are good but have never had any experience with them myself. I see they do one with 46 kg of torque.
