New KO servos - 2363 and 2364

[uDi_MP7.5]

Hope no one beat me to this, apologies if they did.

KO have jumped on the bandwagon with the metal servo casings and updated their 2344 and 2343 servos with the metal heatsink cases.

Whether this makes a difference or not is up for question...
There was a guy on rctech saying the (digital) servos that lasted longest for him were the ones with heatsink casings, because they would get really hot under heavy use.

Personally I have not felt them (digitals without heatsinks) get anything over warm, and never had any heat issues - anyone else got a side on this?

Anyways, just some news that KO guys might be interested in.

The heat sink casing sounds good in theory, but I'm with you I've never noticed an abondance of heat from a servo. Maybe we aren't driving hard enough. LOL I suppose if a servo was going to overheat, it would happen in an 1/8 scale on road carpet racer. Those servo's get a work out!
