Super fast, super strong, killer 8th scale steering servo. Replaceable servo leads lets you find the perfect length for that clean wiring we all desire.
These protek servos are Imo the best on the market hands down and with a awesome company like amain having your back and will fix 99% of any issues Imo it would be senseless to go with any other servo out there unless you use because of a big name or something , These servos are seriously BADASS
The 170 is by far the best servo I've used to date. The detachable leads is key and I can only hope that trend continues with future protek models. I've been using Protek's for a while now and even though they have caught up to other "top brands" in price they've always matched them in performance in reliability and the 170 is no different. I'd recommend this servo to anyone!
All I can say is WOW! This is my first ProTek servo and I am so impressed! I put it in my 1/8 ebuggy and it is incredible. I love the detachable servo leads too.
I will slowly be replacing all my other servos with this one. Highly recommend!
Great servo. It is my first time trying out the ProTek servos and it has proved to be a top notch from my experience so far.
It has taken a good amount of beating but it is still going very strong.
The finish on this is phenomenal. For about the same price, you're getting a brushless high speed servo that can cost you twice as much when you buy other brands.
Give it a try!
I purchased this servo for the Tekno SCT410.3 I ordered, and it is amazing. I had just installed the 170TBL in the Tekno Truggy I ordered a couple weeks before, and I've been so impressed with both of them that I recently ordered the waterproof crawler version as well. These Protek black label servos are all I'm using going forward. They are so quiet, fast and powerful that nobody would ever need more. Plus the removable harness and short and long options (included) is an added bonus that more companies should be offering. A++++!
Smooth, fast, strong.
Everything you want in a servo!
These 170SBL's have been amazing in my 1/8 Off Road Nitro buggy. I have put them thru 6 Regional races and they have stayed smooth,consistent and strong.
I ordered this servo on April 8, 2022, and received it yesterday. Under the shrink wrap packaging was a case that was cracked in several places and a servo covered with fingerprints. One of the cables that you plug into the servo was also missing.
I contacted amain via live chat and they overnighted me another servo (with a return label for the older one), which was great.
....except that the replacement ALSO came in a marred case, with the servo itself having several scratches on the polished area in the upper body. I am not going to bother anymore as the servo seems to work fine (for now...), but I can't help but wonder if amain has been putting returns back on the shelf with no quality control. Certainly doesn't feel like I got my $159 worth in any case. If the quality control on the things that make up your first impression is this bad, it makes you wonder, what else have they possibly skimped on inside, don't you think?
Best servo I have used in thirty years of racing. It has a nice look and does not fade in the hot summer temps. I use them in all of my cars. Good job, Protek!
More power than you could ever need for 1/10 and 1/8 applications. Perfect for an 1/8 nitro racing throttle servo or as a steering servo in 1/10 classes to get that solid holding strength when pushing your cars limits.
Good servos but they have a glitching issue with the Futaba 4PX. This is a known issue according with Amain support team, right now not using them because I am not able to solve the problem at least from my side.
Great servo. High quality and strong. However, due to how and where the wires exit the servo, if used with the RC8B4, some modification to the servo mount is required with a dremel to clear the wires.
They suggest this servo with the kit, but don't mention this.
Good performance bang right out of the package. More than enough too. Centers on a dime. You can drive with confidence.
A truly amazing servo. So buttery smooth and a super sexy case. Plus detachable leads?!?!...
This is a must have! This servo delivers high speed and torque. Race or back yard bash with confidence!
Great servo. Fast, strong, reliable, looks nice. Perfect for my b4e
Baddest servo on the planet for your 1/8. (Period!
Was blown away with the performance of the protek 130ss. I wanted to try the 170sbl. Wow. This servo is in the top 5 best performing servos on the planet today! Some of the best centering i have ever seen! And. As far as build quality goes. Hands down the finest constructed servo i have ever seen.
The hands down best servo I have ever bought will never use anything else again
