    i'm building a G seat and have come across a range of products by chinese seller Wingxine. They make them for people building large robots, so that seems fairly applicable to our needs and the prices are great.

    I'm using their 110kgcm servo ($65 each) and have a pair of 260kgcm servos ($70 each) on order. I also just spotted a standalone servo controller for $45 that looks very heavy duty and they say is rated at 1,000kgcm. Just supply motor and pot. Cheaper and stronger than pololu.

    Go to ebay.com and look for
    ASMC-04A
    ASME-03A
    ASMB-03

    Or just search for wingxine

    Sounds promising. I'm looking forward to your experiences with these servos, once you have integrated them into your g-seat.
    I am also curious about this one.

    I read in your other thread that you made bad experiences with sealed servos, but yours were smaller, right?

    Compared to a Turnigy, Futaba, Savox etc my failed Kingmax was a substantial device, but this photo (Kingmax sitting on Wingxine) shows how it compares to the Wingxine. Part of me actually feels pleased to ditch the Kingmax - it was never really fit for purpose or worthy of my project! The Wingxine has a much more satisfying heft to it. A costly learning experience.

    Regarding that 500kgcm servo on Amazon, its only 0.5sec/60 degrees compared to mine which is 0.12sec/60 degrees so you'd need 4x more leverage to get the same movement. Also I like the open nature of mine. You can see the heatsink and you can swap the driver board. If my 260kgcm performs as claimed then it's equivalent to 1,066kgcm at 0.5sec/60 degrees.

    I've been testing their 110kgcm servo. I found it to be somewhere between 50 and 65 kgcm.

    260kgcm Wingxine Servo tested

    I now have the 260kgcm model. Its visually identical to the 110kgcm apart from a red circuit board. I bought it from wingxine on ebay and it came much more professionally wrapped than the servo I got from a different seller, and it came with a very sturdy steel servo arm. Performance wise, like the 110kgcm, its delivering about 50% of rated torque. The servo stalls on 130kgcm, but worked pretty well at 100kgcm. which is probably adequate for my g-seat. I'm about to find out for sure.

    Pricewise the 260kgcm is very little more than the 110kgcm, so this is the one to get. There is a 380kgcm but that is much slower at 0.5s/60 degrees. They show a video of that actually delivering the torque they claim, and with the extra gearing it may actually be possible.
