hi, last year I made a remote controlled robot puppet called Red the
mailbot. He is featured on "what now" on sunday mornings. I got all my
servos from Barry Lennox whose company is Microsystems. Barry is the
president of Model Flying NZ, formally New Zealand Model Aeronautical
Association (NZMAA). He imports servos directly and has a great range
of sizes available and the cheapest I've come across. Perhaps you
could try contacting him. (03)310 6628 or (021)064 7326
