    hi there, are 750watt servo motors really needed ??? i mean a worm gear sim rig with levers works with 120watt Motors. 750 for a linear one is so much over the top, isnt it ? whats the minimum servo recommended ? the electricity bill will thank you :D

    Its 750watt at 100% load. These can go for up to 300% load without tripping...
    Under normal operation you get from 30w to 100w ( unless you crash a lot...)
