motors are slower and far torqueier than mutant plus it takes bigger steps, so theroy is she'd be quikcer than Mutant. yea she will be a crusher hopefully near 20kg of crush but that figure will proberbly drop, powered by a windin spring which is wound by a brushless motor. how it works is the spring gets turned and the tails of the spring attach to the chassis and arm, it means the arm will come down like lightening and then it starts to grip, as the motor spins the sping is wound tighter and the arm gets more powerfull. Theroy says she'd bend 1mm ally but think the chassis would give out before that.

I just got a Cirrus CS704MG from Hobbystores for ?25. 14.6kg/cm at 6V and work fine at 7.2v The case is easily modded and you can cut 1/2 of it away easily. It's 46g which is a bit heavy but the gears won't strip and you can save a few grams from the case and servo wire.
I was looking to use this in an updated version of anteater, they are slightly better and lighter than the 14Kg/cm Blue Bird servo's I have.
Speed is a bit slow at 0.15 sec/60 degrees at 6v but can't have everything.
