DO NOT USE THISE SERVOS FOR DRIVE!!!!!!!
they are metalgear so the output gear dosent go all the way round i know i tried to do that once
tx will be fine i know peplle have said that they come to life at night and try to kill you(or whatever i wasent listening that much ) but i use one and its fine
batery u can get off ebay type in 4.8v nimh pick the 13g one i use it in my ?35 ant and its fine
for 4wd you will need "Y" leads and to modify servos at the same time.
BTW i was going to do a servo 4wd but it looked too coplicated so im doing gear motors (wach out for ANTipersperANT) but good luck and if theres anything i can do to help email me (whould have included links but im on an italian computer and it dosent like it. y lead you can get from giant cod)

If you want to do 4 wheel drive using 4 servo's you need to join the two servo's on each side together to the same receiver output. This is done with a sevo Y lead such as:

The single end plugs into the receiver and the two servo's plug into the other ends.

hallo jordan u still got stack error then, the servos i use in my ?35 ant and most of my othes are towerpro sg90 cheep and chearful at ?2.20 each as fast as supertec park flyers but not that much torque as them but at 9g they may strip, out of the 15 servos i have i stripped the gears on 2 (my own fault, forcing the horn round more than it was ment to )
