Both Z8800 versions boast a newly developed digital amplifier that produces unequalled holding torque and resolution. Even on the most vibration-riddled 1/8 gas car, the new amp keeps things strong, solid and smooth. Pro 1/8 scale racer Ron Rosetti has been field testing these servos for over a year and a half in competitions across the country and has seen first-hand just how robust this new amplifier is, saying, "In my 1/8 on-road car, the new servos' quickness and strength was incredible, and the centering accuracy is simply second to none."

Besides the new amplifier, the Z8800s feature dual, wide-spaced ball bearings, a coreless motor and an industrial strength composite metal gear train made up of a combination of hard-coated aluminum and steel gears. Horizon Engineering Manager, John Adams, has also been putting the new servos through their paces in the off-road environment with a 1/8 Mayhem Pro™ buggy. As John puts it, "These are quite simply the most powerful, most accurate digital servos I have ever used. The gear train is virtually unstrippable."
