Oztruck, do you have experience with that ESC? Also, I would need to run 2 right?
Wow, yes, you must have been looking at one of the higher current Sabertooth ESCs. The 5 amp model at $60, 'ought to handle those servos. If you wanted to be safe, you could buy the next size up, but I can't really see a servo pulling more then 5 amps, unless it's stalled completely.
