Man this seems so odd to me to see that kind up and down drop in torque . most that i have seen when testing myself the torque is slowly drooping down i think with heat. i feel like there is a power delivery problem.
I used a fully charged 7.4V receiver pack that is used primarily for video testing to replicate the power source that is used when these are used in a nitro application. I have a fixed direct power source, and a receiver pack for testing. I have tested these on both power sources, and the torque relatively drops quite fast, and these can not handle the heat in Nitro and quickly fail. I have tested these myself more than once in my own 1/8th buggy, and every single one has failed in a short period of time. Regardless if you feel it is odd they are not very good when used in a racing application, especially in 1/8. These are best for recreational use or some 1/10 club racing.
I’m looking to buy the 60 to 70kg version, is there better quality servos for that torque at 1/10 scale size, that you recommend doesn’t have to be budget price, just something that will last me, I’m having lots of trouble thanks?
The rating is about torque, twisting force. In the case of servos it's usually measured in kg (force) per cm or ounces per inch. So a 1 cm long servo arm should be able to lift up to 35 kg in this case. The longer the arm (the lever) the less it can overcome. Torque = force x distance, so a 2 cm arm would half the torque of the servo down to 17.5kg etc etc.

hello ! I want to use servos like this for a robotic project where it requires the servo to move quickly from 0 to 60 degrees. Do you recommend these?
No, spend a little bit more money on a better servo for robotics use. Thank me later.
How can you watch this video and STILL ask this question??
Is the kg rating the amount of weight it can lift? Im sorry but can someone please explain what the kg rating is? 😅
