Well, a fellow Hitec user wanted me to have a chance to compare the Hitec brushless to the JR brushless... so I was able to get these servos (I'll be trying these first and then the JR brushless after for a comparison):

I tried to decide if I was going to use any electronics that would be incompatible with the regenerative braking that these servos have. Not being certain I decided to use a PAD (power absorbing device) on each servo. I always solder my servo leads to my extensions anyway, so it wasn't much extra work to attach the PADs right there at the splice:

Rumor has it these servos have serious power, so I bolted them down with 3mm x 5/8 screws:

I'm also thinking of going with ultra HD DUBRO 10-32 control horns:

I did my usual and soldered Dean's ends onto the servo extensions. Nice grommet Rocco has setup for your servo extension ends:

Nolasco made me up this DA sticker, as well:

I thought I heard HITEC is making a larger more efficient power storage unit, i think they are calling it the MAXI-PAD...
