Always trying to make the best products possible. That’s why I love Holmes hobbies
thnx!!
These are the best servos on the market, in my opinion. Personally, I would like to see the strength and speed of the SHV800 or the SHV650 in a low profile case. Other than that, I am thoroughly impressed with your servos. Thanks for all that you and the whole team at HH do for our hobby!!! Y'all raise the bar so high for the industry!!
Fast, powerful, and waterproof!
Uhh I love all my Holmes servos! Probably have 5 of them, many years old and still going like new.
wait till you see our new ones!
@@HolmesHobbies heck yeah! I’m excited!
This is why I buy Holmes Hobbies...
Quality is #1 to them and it shows. I have HH motors from 6-7 years old that are still running strong. Keep up the good work John and TY !!!
Servos. Decent power and fast speed for 2.2 . 3s-4s voltage. Thanks, John. I can't wait to see the new team spec servos!
Thank you for keeping us updated. My heart skipped a beat when I saw no servos in stock.😮
I have to say, the only time i had a problem, you all immediately resolved it. And the v2 i ended up with has been a fantastic piece.
Ludicrous power. And improved further? Im definitely in.
Holmes hobbies for the Winn
You'd have a major winner with a servo that was capable of 4S direct power, 0.10s or better 60° time, and 700oz-in or better in a low profile case. Something I like about the 500v3 was its reaction time. I don't know if it had really good latency or what, but it seems like it snaps the wheels around with more speed and power than servos with better specs on paper.
Servo feature wish list:
1) Programmable
2) Futaba SR, Futaba UR, Sanwa SSR, etc, support pleassssee
3) A micro servo with all steel gears that centers better than the competition and meets (1) and (2) above.
4) A servo that makes me not even consider AGF, Reefs, or Futaba servos because they have SR or UR mode, better post sales support, replacement gear sets readily available, and better features like a micro servo with all steel gears ;)
Thank you for your awesome products and product support.
Holmes Hobbies are my go to servos for steering. I’ve needed another servo for 3 weeks now and since the catalog is sparse Ive yet to get one that meats my needs and in stock. Strong, direct current, low profile is what I like. I hate running an external bec and Holmes always had me covered with the direct current servos. I’ve never had any issues and bought a good many over the years. I’ll wait patiently.
What drew me to Holmes Hobbies servos in the first place was a great value without compromise. Meaning, sure, you could come out with a $50 but it wouldn't be great. And the other side of the spectrum, you could come out with a $300 servo and be inssane. I think the same philosophy you put into the first one is exactly where you need to be. I truly trust your judgment as it hasn't steered us wrong yet! Crawl On!
Super duper fast and powerful servos would be acceptable I guess.... soon please....
Thank you for the update.
You should make bigger servos for the fifth scale stuff
Please don’t discontinue the parts on your servos as i love all my shv servos , I absolutely hate buying products and some time goes by and they discontinue parts as well almost makes me not want to buy their products altogether…but not yours directly… and yes we want servos … never discontinue a good thing !!!! As someone who has spent years in sales never limit what u offer … i would also like to c more esc like ble ect……
Fast, strong and Low profile with the Holmes touch 🤙🏻🍻 stay golden
Appreciate the honesty , and if they need to meet your standards we know they’ll be worth the wait 👍
Very happy with my Holmes servos and looking forward to the new versions! Fast and powerful? Yes please!😎
Something comparable to the Reefs 800LP would be awesome. I will buy many of them once available! I have many of your servos and couldn't be happier with all of them.
super duper fast and powerful
Finally, an update on servos!
The speed and power of the shv800v2 is great, I just wish they were more reliable. 2 of the 3 I have jitter trying to stay at the "home" position, and it gets horrible once they warm up.
had mine 4 years now. super quality
Love my 10th scale direct power 4 cell ready servos. And I need a 5th scale one for my SCx 6.
Also like your micro servo for the SCx 24 steering or dig units
Huge fan of the shv 800bls! It’s my favorite servo! I want them in everything but I was a little late to the party. Keep up the good work!
My 2 requests for consideration are a lp servo around 800oz/ in and something 1000+ oz/in range...KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SIR....
Been waiting for you to drop some more servos. Speed and torque is the need I have. I will keep waiting patiently. Thanks for the updates!
I will say, it's sad to hear that you may not have servos for some time. I find in this industry, it's hard to find a high oz/in direct power servo that's actually affordable. Whenever I needed something I knew was going to work I went for the shv800. Unmatched in all aspects. I don't want a shifts servo that needs a bec and was low oz/in and thr dame goes with the overpriced for what you get reefs. It leaves nsdrc which are great but always sold out haha. We need you to stay in the servo game to give us another reliable option for high power direct power servos. We all appreciate your commitment to quality and can't wait to continue supporting you through the coming years!
Servo? Fast, powerful and waterproof, that's my wish list! Well, that and a reasonable price. Servo prices have just gotten way out of hand and until you can release a servo that performs really well BUT has a reasonable price, Amazon is going to continue doing booming business.
Hello John. Yes, super powerful and super fast servos for me, please. I have 3 of your servos in service, and they're absolutely top-notch. Of course, I want my servos to be externally powered for at least 3s. Rock crawling season is upon us here in Ohio, and I will be on the rocks with my rigs. I will wait for your new servos to come out to install on some of my rigs that are in the middle of being built. As always, Mr. Holmes, great info! Like button energized!
I have 2 shv800's. The direct power is great. One is in a RC4WD Bully2 and the other in a brushed TRX4. I would buy more servos when needed. Hopefully that won't be until you have more on the shelf. It is fun to move aside a rock with the front tire just because you can!
Super powerful and super fast and something I can program please.
AWESOMENESS!!! 😎
Fast and part breaking power
A high-quality budget minded, drop-in, direct battery powered servo that would work with most factory RTR's? I know that's a lot of features to include but may fill a niche for people who are afraid of ESC/BEC swap or don't want to change much but still want a strong steering servo.
Loving my shv650
Looking forward to the new style!!!
And look for perfection in my parts!
So can’t wait to buy one…
You better have a lot in stock when they come
Back!!
Strong and fast water proof
Direct power, period
I'm kind of over the monster power servos and just sort of mid spec but good is where I'm at. I'd rather it was modestly spec'd, quiet, waterproof and esc powered.
Plenty of companies make servos but not many people make motors that can hold a candle to yours. I like having stuff matching for some reason. However, I'd rather have an exceptional HH motor/esc and an off brand servo rather than a 'good' full set of HH. Hope that makes sense.
I think a true budget friendly 350oz/in would be pretty cool to add to the lower end of the range.
Thanks for the update! Been running the shv800s in two of my rigs and the SHV500 LP in three others and want to stick with your servos in the future. They all worked great until I tried an LP in a rear steer application and after 4-5 batteries it developed enough play in the gears to get pretty bad servo jitter. I think stronger gears would be awesome to see
Fast, Strong, LP and Direct Power please. Purple would be nice too.
Love your servos… personally I like direct power servos… LOTS of power and fast… all in one. I know they are a little harder to hook up… but worth it!
To go with that: How about a BEC that can be set higher than 12volts…. So if you’re running 4s (or more) you could directly power a 3s level servo? I can’t be the only one wanting that! lol
I like reefs, but would love to see yalls back in the market
Take your time John. Every product you sell is worth the wait.
thank you!
Love my SVH650's! Have more projects and sad I can't find anymore in the wilds.
Low profile high torque for monster trucks and crawlers!
John, I’d like to see a direct power low profile servo suitable for a MOA crawler. Thank you!
Budget servo would be nice.
Fast and steady, make it dependable and strong, definitely something that we can use, always good product
I would like to have fast and strong... saw the end marvel teaser too.. lol.. My fam loves all your products and wishes we could use them for everything, not just crawling. we are pretty heavy into carpet and turf right now with the kids, BUT this summer we are going to be getting into 1/8 buggy... ive got my sights on your motor for that one!
Deadly fast and definitely powerful love your stuff and I just started buying it's been a few weeks now I haven't had a chance to test the brushed motor and I run the smaller stuff you know I don't run big stuff is it easier as my job has very long hours and I can kind of Tinker a little bit while I'm doing it great products so far brother good job
Back when I had my ESCs made, I also got a few samples of servos and only 2 iirc was good. I do know of a company that makes complete servo PCBs, I can send you that info if you want to look into it.
Loved your servos. with that being said we want cheap strong reliable crawling servos!
Wish this was out before I just spent $250 on “sub par” ( from the owner & developer or the company) 1/5th scale servo 😮
Jmo, best servo ever, price, power and its pretty.
Holmes BLShv2000 for an scx6.
Exceeded expectations !! 😅
Down a 40 degree incline, all weight on front, still steers. Gotta be as close too tearing up the front end, w o tearing up the front end, yes, towers upgraded to aluminum, still think it's just a matter of time b4 it snaps something up front.
the scx6 deserve its low gear, because of this servo
Hey brother I just want to say once again man you got really good products that scx24 Servo the micro Servo you have it's very good it's not like lightning fast it is fast and it is so strong
YO! I heard in there somewhere a february release! It's almost the end of February, where the servos at?! (I'm Kidding)
Been hard , having to buy Reefs lately for all my projects. Wish I could have been buying SHV650s. Enough direct power torque and speed to make a 10lb scale rig dance. Ill take 5.
Cool beans! Looking forward to your new products.
Make a 1/5 servo for the Xmax that fits natively. I think that would do well. Also, more low profile servos in 1/10.
Glad you’re doing better.
Just keep up the good work and continuous improvement.
I wondered what was going on. Thanks for the update.
Rear exiting cable on a micro servo please👍
Creates best servos ever made - "these servos aren't quite up to my standards"
I like coffee.
Brushed speed run motors!! :) man your retro motors are awesome!! Love to see some with replaceable brushes. My hotshot needs a sweet replaceable.
The direct power, low pro servos are the bee's knees...
I actually use a "slow" servo. It's just easier to drive more controlled.
The man makes some of the best servos on the market and then decides to get rid of them… fuckin aye….
Well I look forward to seeing the next lineup
They could have been better! The fail rate (that most people don't see) was higher than I wanted to see
I think it’d be nice if you focused efforts on a USA made or as close to it. The servo market is so saturated. It’s more about the after sales support than the actual product so maybe to have something unique have something built here possibly
I wish for a servo that can handle duallys(even in the front) on a kind of madmax/timbertruck 1.9" 10th scale trail rig. So lots of durability and torque, speed is not as important for this one. =) Otherwise im very happy with both my SHV500 and 650.
All my 1/10 comp rigs have Holmes Hobbies electronics, I haven't built anything new for a couple years, (I'm building a house, kinda takes up xtra dollars)
I like powerful servos, I can make speed with geometry.
Love your stuff man. Have fun.
Do a high voltage, high torque/high speed brushless motor basher servo for 1/8 trucks like the Kraton and Sledge. I’d buy one from you if the specs were right.
Maybe it's just the style that I drive... But, it seems to me like mega fast servo's end up moving the rear of the vehicle ( with a good servo) in some cases with the tiniest movement of the steering... Aka... F'n up the line! Lol. Anyway, I guess what I was getting at is maybe a line of servo's that while maybe not blistering fast, have very good resolution of the movement process.... Still all the torque just a little tad slower and better resolution of movement. Thanks for the bada$$ videos John
A couple Budget friendly gems 💎 would be nice.. not everybody needs big power and speed In just a trail rig . After all, you’ve covered the high end of the market . Around 400 Inch ounces 3s would be plenty of upgrades to rtr’s There is a lot of competition between name brands now .
Are going to still provide gear sets for the old ones i haven't ever broke one but i would like to no if could still get them if needed it was a gift and it holds something meaningful so just a question.
All the torque, direct power. Speed isn't as big of a concern as power.
I wondered what happened...was at the site looking for servos ad nada...zip..nyet...ended up ordering a G13 from 3 bros......
Something like the RS1 from NSDRC, but for forty bucks lol.
Fast powerful and low profile please
I have the Holmes 800 in my Wraith Spawn. I've used it twice over a year or so. It quit, can I send it in for repair?
Will u still be selling replacement parts for all the older models???? An my next rig will be a vanquish carbon or stance rtr. So lightweight is my next servo wanted. Was looking to grab a shv500lp but can't find any anywere. Hope there available in the next few week's or I can find a older 1.
Almost march now😂😂😂 but i love my holmes servos. Ive only ever busted one set of gears in a 500lp. Everything else has been stupid strong and dead reliable
I'd also like to see something close to an 800lp and a 500lp. Just like your original 500lp.
Is your camera man pretty good at cleaning up spilled beans?
A direct power, 500 to 700, low profile.
we just want non glitchy servos
I want a direct power low profile brass or tungsten servo case direct power 4s plastic axle breaking power
The no answer answer is better than no answer at all!
Is it really just a matter of choosing specs on servos and having them screen printed with a company name Because I'm DYING to see the video where everything is lined up on a table, tested, and proven to be the exact same - class for class. To me, it seems that it's easier and easier for company ABC to get a name printed a SUPER SPEC SERVO and then have a few people run them and then gatekeep an entire group people for not running them because they're not cool enough or whatever the reason of the day may be.
The one thing this hobby lacks is transparency. It needs it. It needs to have the layers of bulshit demolished that have been built up by the end user.
How about strong, reliable and not so expensive that you have to skip meals (like reefs)
Would like one high end high torque servo then a budget friendly non direct power servo.
Personally for my self i don’t need a fast servo
Speed, power and 125 bucks 😂
Naah, please focus on motors like the amazing revolver series!!!
lamborghini makes servos now.... #nonsense
What 1/10 servo?? Anything that moves at least 40kg , is faster than .08sec and is low profile 😉
