I took Steve's advice and got 3 of the CS-80s for about $25 on Ebay.  Just
remember that the CS-80s require a direct battery feed.

1/4 scales are nice since they are usually 1/5th the price.

1/4 scale refers to the size of the servo nothing more. You can easily get a 
standard size servo with more torque and speed than a 1/4 scale servo. I use 
standard size servos in a rock crawler that are rated at 480 inch Oz torque and 
.12 seconds for 60 deg. This is more than most 1/4 scale servos.

Are they in the 1/4 scale category? 

I have been shopping at Hobbyking.com and the like.

I think they might be listed by torque.  Hitec's giant scale servos
are anywhere from 11 kg/cm to 20 kg/cm at 4.8 volts.

Not a silly question Aaron , you have a remarkable ability of asking
